[O] [BUG] problem exporting example block to html
Exporting the following to html:
--8---cut here---start-8---
* foo
#+begin_example
#+TITLE: foo
* One
One
* Two
Euler says:
#+begin_latex
\[
\int_0^\infty e^{-x^2} dx = {{\sqrt{\pi}} \over {2}}
\]
#+end_latex
#+end_example
--8---cut here---end---8---
deletes the latex section. The problem is that in
org-export-preprocess-string, by the time that we get to
org-export-select-backend-specific-text(), the example has been wrapped in
BEGIN_HTML/END_HTML and the begin_example/end_example have been translated
into pre//pre. org-export-select-backend-specific-text() then blindly
deletes the latex section since it does not belong to the html backend,
not realizing that it is part of a literal example.
There is also a bug in the latex backend: although the example, including
most of the latex section, is wrapped inside a verbatim environment,
the #+end_latex line has been eaten up - I haven't checked by whom.

[O] Corrections for org mode manual
Hey,
while reading through the org mode manual I found some lines that could
require minor corrections.
I attached a patch file with corrections
('0001-add-corrections-to-org-manual.patch'), as well as one with
suggestions ('0001-add-suggestions-to-org-manual.patch') that are more
of a matter of style.
If there are any questions or comments, please let me know. I will have
a look at the remaining chapters as soon as possible.
Best
Julian

I believe this is a result of one of the Org-mode functions called to prettify the buffer (e.g., adding latex equation and image overlays). I've just pushed up a change which unsets this flag at the beginning of a presentation. This way, if you edit during a presentation then the buffer will appear to be modified, but if you are only presenting (not editing) then the buffer should appear unmodified when the presentation is ended.

Re: [O] [babel] [PATCH] Fix sh block execution in session
Hi Julien, Thanks for this patch, the current method of waiting for output in shell code blocks could certainly use improvement. After a series of simple tests I can confirm that this does appear to work for me. I have a couple of questions. 1. do you have a minimal example of a shell code block which works after your patch but not before? 2. I assume that the changes to ob-comit were required for your ob-sh changes to work and were not intended to affect other languages? 3. When switching the order of the prompt and eoe check in ob-comint, did you try *only* looking for the eoe indicator? It seems to me that once that is present the check for a followup prompt may not be required and it may make sense to simply remove that code. All in all I agree that the ob-sh changes look like an improvement and should be applied. I'm less sure of the changes to ob-comint, simply because I don't understand the mechanism through which swapping the regexp checks changes behavior. However if the ob-sh changes depend upon the ob-comint changes there is no point in applying them piecemeal. Situations like this (innocuous looking changes with potentially wide-ranging potential implications) make me wish Babel had a more mature and better-maintained test suite.

Re: [O] Academic Reference Workflows and recommendation of Bibdesk
On 6/4/11 12:54 AM, Chao LU wrote:
Dear All,
Here I'd like to discuss my workflow for Academic reference and
recommend you Bibdesk.
I use iTune to manage all my mp3 files. Mp3 format has the ability to
store all the metadata into the file itself, and iTune offers a way to
modify and display certain kind of music according to the metadata.
Inspired by this, I was looking for similar way to organize all the
academic references and even to build a personal digital library. I've
tried a lot of softwares, Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, Endnote, Org-mode,
Yep, BibDesk...
My feeling is that, Org could get this done, but BibDesk does a better
job.
Then you should probably use BibDesk? It depends on whether it's more
important for you to use the best tool for each part of the job, or to
do as many parts of the job as possible in the same Org environment.
If the job is managing references, then the best tool is likely to be
a dedicated reference manager.
Org-mode has ample general-purpose functionality that can be used to
manage academic references (and recent changes to org-bibtex have made
this option more attractive). But it was not designed as a dedicated
tool for this purpose.
Org-mode integrates quite smoothly with BibTeX, and it can be
integrated with stand-alone reference managers (I don't have an
overview, but I know about various partial solutions for Zotero, such
as Fireforg and Erik Hetzner's Zotero-plain).
To check in an entry such as org-manual-7.5.pdf to the library, one
could do:
Library.org
-
#+LINK: pdf file:./Emacs/%s.pdf
#+LINK: txt file:./Emacs/%s.txt
(...snip...)
Location: [[pdf:org-manual-7.5]]
Then use org-attach to get the file settle down in the right place.
It seems superfluous to define two different link types for pdf and
text files when the links don't do anything differently and don't save
typing.
And if you have archived the file, then the link is in principle
superfluous (especially if you have one attachment per ID'd entry),
since you can open the current entry's attachment(s) with `C-c C-a o'.
However this process is quite time consuming, and non-intuitive. I
prefer the features provided in iTune, Papers2, Bibtex, which could
provide thumbnail and quicklooks of the files.
Those are two different issues.
*2. the Bibdesk way:*
Now I'd like to recommend BibDesk here.
First of all it's free, open resource. Its database file is just an
bibtex file, so all the records is in plain text, even the thumbnails
are stored inside this bibtex file. like below,
===
Bdsk-File-1 = {YnBsaXN0MDDUAQIDBAUIJidUJHRvcFgkb2JqZWN0c1gk(It's
very long png source code, so I abridged here)}
===
Second, Bibdesk has a much more intuitive UI, and thumbnails are
provided. It also support keywords, smart groups...
Tags?
Moreover, Bibdesk has a great feature called autofile, which could
attach the file to certain directories (and build the directories
structures you want as well!) Here is the example:
In Org, you can specify the attachment directory of your choice in the
ATTACH_DIR property of the entry. If the path does not exist, it will
be created when an attachment is made. You can set the ATTACH_DIR
property with `C-c C-a s'. This seems to do everything the autofile
feature you describe can do, perhaps at the expense of a couple of
extra keystrokes of typing per entry.
I do think that BibDesk has great features to investigate, such as
create the record from the bibtex and embed the picture inside the
bibtex itself.
As Matt Lundin already mentioned, Eric Schulte has recently provided a
user-friendly way to convert between BibTeX and Org records. See
org-bibtex.el in the development version or
https://github.com/eschulte/org-bibtex/blob/master/org-bibtex.el
If you need thumbnails, someone could probably cobble up a way to add
them with, say, ImageMagick (for PDFs at least; and for .txt or .html
documents, maybe text excerpts would be just as helpful?).
But if you like both Bibdesk and Org-mode, the more interesting
question is probably how you can integrate the two.
Yours,
Christian

[O] [OT] Icon problem with org-google-weather
This is off-topic but it is driving me bananas. I do --8---cut here---start-8--- (setq date '(6 5 2011)) (6 5 2011) (setq foo (let ((org-google-weather-cache-time 0)) (org-google-weather))) (setq bar (org-google-weather)) (equal foo bar) (insert foo) (insert bar) --8---cut here---end---8--- in the *scratch* buffer. The idea is that foo is freshly obtained from google every time: it never goes to cached data since the cache time is set to 0. bar, otoh, is obtained from cache. I've traced the code and that's indeed what happens. The two strings compare equal: (equal foo bar) returns t - just in case, I also displayed them in separate windows and did a compare-windows: they are the same that way too. Nevertheless, when I insert foo, the icon is shown, but when I insert bar, the icon is an empty box. What am I missing? Thanks, Nick
