[Orgmode] underscores in links

2009-01-07 Thread Rustom Mody
When I have a file containing links like

the underscores become subscripts (when exported as html).

How to turn this off?

Section on Export Options in the manual has ^: setting to

If you want to keep the superscript feature, you might consider to
provide the displayed text for the links yourself:

I think that's the right convention.

On high-traffic lists it's easy to miss messages to topics you replied
to if followup emails are sent only to the list.  The discussion also
proceeds at a faster rate for people not subscribed to the list since
they get direct email.

I read mail much more often than I read the news groups.  I follow the
list through the gmane interface so I'm not subscribed.

The footer on the post also states to use 'Reply All' so the
conversation doesn't accidentally end up off-list.

Just my 2 cents :)

[Orgmode] export to latex..

2009-01-07 Thread sergio_101
i have been running orgmode for awhile now, and using it to export my
files to latex for printing..

for some reason, today, it stopped working..

when i do a C-c C-e and select 'l' to export to latex, i get the following:


Sorting environment...
Removing duplicates... done
Applying style hooks... done

and then it just hangs..

i have tried checking *messages* for some clues, but that is all it says..

anyone have any ideas where i might look to fix this?

thanks!

[Orgmode] Suggestions for Orgmode.org homepage

2009-01-07 Thread Manish
Hello Carsten,

The image at http://imagebin.org/35260 shows the Orgmode homepage in
IE6 and http://imagebin.org/35261 shows the the same page in FF3.  The
page in IE (6) is jumbled up (table of contents mixed up with page
contents) since it (IE6) does not support position: fixed used in
the org.css.  I faced the same issue when I gave some org-generated
HTML documentation to someone using IE yesterday.  So I got some help
from a friend and worked out a compromise so that it doesn't break so
horribly in IE6.

What I did was to create another small CSS file, org-ie6, css, with following
contents:

  : #table-of-contents{
  : position: absolute;
  : float: left;
  : }
  :
  : body {
  :  background-attachment: scroll;
  : }

And load this CSS conditionally when IE 6 is being used by adding
following line in the generated HTML file's header just above the
body tag:

  : !--[if lt IE 7]link rel=stylesheet href=org-ie6.css
type=text/css ![endif]--

(previous line may wrap)

The compromise is that the table of contents in the sidebar (along
with the background image) scrolls up with the page unlike in FF,
which IMHO, is an acceptable compromise.  I have been told that some
javascript magic can make IE6 behave like position: fixed but I
haven't yet worked out how/if that can be done.

Possibly a better workaround/solution exists for this else please
consider making similar change to the Orgmode home page.

Also, I do not have access to IE7 so I do not know if that works.

Regards,
--

This is what I use in such cases. All styles starting with '*' are read
by IE only. No compromise should be neccessary.




@media screen {

  /* ... all your styles here ... */

  #table-of-contents

position:fixed;

[Orgmode] Problem searching CLOSED and DEADLINE properties

2009-01-07 Thread Bart Parliman
When the example file below is added to the agenda file list, and 
I perform an agenda property search (C-c C-a m), I can't seem to 
locate any CLOSED items if I use the date matching format, for 
example these don't work...


CLOSED=2009-01-01
CLOSED=2009-01-07

... but a regexp search like this...

CLOSED={2009}

... works fine.  For DEADLINE, an exact date matches fails...

DEADLINE=2009-01-28

... but an inequality match succeeds...

DEADLINE=2009-01-28

FWIW I'm using version 6.17b.  Am I just using this format 
incorrectly?


Thanks,
Bart

Something like this maybe?  It's not 100% to spec. I find regions that
are entire lines easier to work with so the end point would be the
beginning of the first line not in the region (not after the })
For me - triple clicking and dragging selects entire lines which works
well for this.


(defun my-wrap-src ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((beg (region-beginning))
(end (region-end))
(src (read-from-minibuffer Source type:  java)))
(save-excursion
  (goto-char (region-end))
  (insert #+END_SRC\n)
  (goto-char (region-beginning))
  (insert #+BEGIN_SRC  src \n


If you want your behaviour you probably jsut have to change 
  (insert #+END_SRC\n)
to
  (insert \n#+END_SRC)
but that's untested.

HTH,

Hello Carsten,
   
The image at http://imagebin.org/35260 shows the Orgmode homepage in
IE6 and http://imagebin.org/35261 shows the the same page in FF3. The
page in IE (6) is jumbled up (table of contents mixed up with page
contents) since it (IE6) does not support position: fixed used in
the org.css. I faced the same issue when I gave some org-generated
HTML documentation to someone using IE yesterday. So I got some help
from a friend and worked out a compromise so that it doesn't break so
horribly in IE6.
   
What I did was to create another small CSS file, org-ie6, css,
 with following
contents:
   
 : #table-of-contents{
 :   position: absolute;
 :   float: left;
 : }
 :
 : body {
 : background-attachment: scroll;
 : }
   
And load this CSS conditionally when IE 6 is being used by adding
following line in the generated HTML file's header just above the
body tag:
   
 : !--[if lt IE 7]link rel=stylesheet href=org-ie6.css
type=text/css ![endif]--
   
(previous line may wrap)
   
The compromise is that the table of contents in the sidebar (along
with the background image) scrolls up with the page unlike in FF,
which IMHO, is an acceptable compromise. I have been told that some
javascript magic can make IE6 behave like position: fixed but I
haven't yet worked out how/if that can be done.
   
Possibly a better workaround/solution exists for this else please
consider making similar change to the Orgmode home page.
   
Also, I do not have access to IE7 so I do not know if that works.

 @media screen {

 /* ... all your styles here ... */

 #table-of-contents
 {
  position:fixed;
  width:198px;
 }

 * html { overflow-y: hidden; }

 * html body {
  overflow-y: auto;
  height: 100%;
  padding: 0 0 0 0;
  font-size: 100%;
 }

 * html div#table-of-contents { position: absolute; }
 }

 This is a much better solution.  I have an on/off-topic question
 though, if you do not mind.  In case the TOC contents are more than
 what fits on the page what do I add to css (or may be to #+OPTIONS
 line?) to bring up a scroll bar like in
 http://orgmode.org/Changes.html?

Re: [Orgmode] Suggestions for Orgmode.org homepage

2009-01-07 Thread Samuel Wales
A reminder about accessibility.

With changes to code that creates web pages, remember to try
increasing the font size to very large and looking at all parts of the
page.

Try fonts large enough that the maximized browser can only display 60
characters or so.

Quite often, text overlaps itself vertically or horizontally.  Quite
often it also runs past the right margin of the window, or the right
or bottom edge of parts of the page.  When that happens, the page is
often unusable.

 Hi Manish,

 just make the #table-of-contents limited to a certain height. 100%
 should work if nothing else is higher than the visible area in the
 browser. If it doesn't, use a pixel value.

 @media screen {

 /* ... all your styles here ... */

 #table-of-contents
 {
 position:fixed;
 width:198px;
 /* add this for the height: */
 height:100%;
 overflow:auto;

 Either of these sites are nice for seeing what pages look like on
 various versions of IE.

Hi Sergio,

Anyone else can reproduce Sergio's problem?


hi, carsten..

just one more thing that may be of use..

i can take any existing tex files (even really whacky ones) and  
produce

pdfs just fine..





Hi Sergio,

one thing you can do to narrow down where things go wrong is this:

Go to the Options menu in Emacs and turn on Enter debugger on Quit/ 
C-g.  The export a LaTeX file, wait until Emacs is stuck, and then  
press C-g.  The backtrace should give us information where it got  
stuck.  The backtrace will be more useful if you load uncompiled  
versions of Org, i.e. if the elc files are not present.
