Unfortunately, the LaTeX exporter does have a lot of weaknesses in this
area: it tends to escape special characters willy-nilly - sometimes
that's the right thing to do, sometimes not.
This particular escaping is done by org-export-latex-special-chars: this
basically loops over four (horrendous-looking) regexps and tries to find
all matches in the buffer for that regexp. It then proceeds to transform
the matched text (and matched pieces of text *around* the main match) in
some (hopefully meaningful) way. In this case, it fails.
The only way I know around this problem is a mechanism that Tom Dye
describes in his (excellent) LaTeX exporting tutorial on Worg. He
credits Lawrence Mitchell for the case that he describes in the tutorial.
Evaluate this expression
--8---cut here---start-8---
(setq org-entities-user '((l { nil)
(r } nil)))
--8---cut here---end---8---
and then export the following:
--8---cut here---start-8---
* example
Example[fn:note].
[fn:note] An equation: \(\bar \l a\r \).
blablabla [fn:bla]
[fn:bla] this is what \cite\l she\r said.
--8---cut here---end---8---
The trick fools the exporter but there are added spaces - I know no
way to get rid of those.
I'm not really sure, but I suspect this worked before I instaled the
latest version of org-mode.
I doubt that. Although patches have been applied to deal with a host of
such problems, it is a long-standing problem that is unlikely to be
completely solved - ever[fn:1].

Hi Masashi, this is a very interesting proposal -- thanks for the diagrams and the pointers to existing schedule API. I will digg into this direction and see if I can propose something useful. The question is: would an API for the whole agenda mechanism (and not just scheduled items) be useful?

I've discovered a problem with org-mode on the trunk version of emacs; typing ctrl-c ctrl-c to add a tag results in Wrong type argument: listp, t. Here are steps to reproduce: (1) Place the following in a file named foo.org (not including the lines of = signs.) == # -*- mode: org; -*- #+STARTUP: logdone #+TAGS: bb(b) dw(d) holiday(a) meeting(m) note(n) q(q) releng(r) sysadmin(s) eng(e) other(o) * Top level ** second level 1 *** third level 1 :b: CLOCK: [2011-07-10 Sun 12:44]--[2011-07-10 Sun 12:44] = 0:00 ** second level 2 *** third level 2 :b: CLOCK: [2011-07-10 Sun 12:46] material for third level == (2) Open foo.org with emacs: emacs -Q foo.org (3) place point in the first column of third level 2 (line 12). (3) Attempt to add the meeting tag to line 12 by typing C-c C-c m RET. Expected behavior: after typing C-c C-c, org mode should present a list of pre-defined tags. Emacs 23.3 exhibits this behavior. Observed behavior: typing C-c C-c produces the following message in the minibuffer: Wrong type argument: listp, t Thanks for the fine report. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this since the text following Top level is hidden here. foo.org appears as # -*- mode: org; -*- #+STARTUP: logdone #+TAGS: bb(b) dw(d) holiday(a) meeting(m) note(n) q(q) releng(r) sysadmin(s) eng(e) other(o) * Top level If I manually insert its text into a new buffer foo.org. the buffer after step (3) looks like # -*- mode: org; -*- #+STARTUP: logdone #+TAGS: bb(b) dw(d) holiday(a) meeting(m) note(n) q(q) releng(r) sysadmin(s) eng(e) other(o) * Top level ** second level 1 *** third level 1 :b: CLOCK: [2011-07-10 Sun 12:44]--[2011-07-10 Sun 12:44] = 0:00 ** second level 2 *** third level 2 :meeting:b: CLOCK: [2011-07-10 Sun 12:46] material for third level which is probably the expected behavior.

[O] Using org-mode for Research and Notetaking
[My main goal is to take research notes and write texts. I have little interest in the todo/agenda part of org-mode, which I understand is its main focus, so bear this in mind.] Previously I have been using muse-mode for publishing and a home brew system for organising my notes. Now I thought, I would give org-mode a try. I had some 3500 short notes which I converted into a 8.5M org-file with said 3500 heavily tagged entries. Also created a 500k org file from my bibtex file. These two plus a couple of shorter files are my org-agenda-files. Speed is quite ok, surprisingly. `org-columns' in the big file is a no-go, of course (overlays!). The agenda commands work fine (I have few entries with todo-keywords, but they are in every file.) So far so good. Tables, integration of latex fragments: great stuff. I like the outlining capabilities but used most of them via `org-struct-mode' already. Especially impressed with babel. Wow! A couple of questions and observations, first impressions really: 1. Publishing (I have only tested pdf) works pretty well. Obviously, or so I would have thought, I don't want to see todo-keywords and TAGs in the output. How do I get rid of them? 2. Tags are SLOW (no doubt due to my 8.5M file). Completion takes minutes. I fixed that by adding all my (hundreds of) tags to `org-tag-alist' and restricting capture to »%g«, checking only the current file. `org-id-find' is slow as well and so will be property completions, I guess. How about caching the data and update on saving an org-agenda file? 3. By default, tags cannot contain spaces or commas. I rectified that with an ugly hack in `org-set-tags-to', which replaces spaces with ?\x2008 (punctuation space), and setting it to word syntax. Also, many long tags display ugly. How about showing only the first twenty characters and show the rest via help echo? 4. muse-mode has this nice feature that it easily allows you to define your own tags like i-am-learning-kanji-so-better-display-this-big…/… or a-citation-the-way-i-like-it…/…; not only for export but also for fontification. Can I do something similar in org-mode? 5. According to the manual »TODO items are an integral part of the notes file«. I like that, but I do not find it so. TODO items are headings which I find somewhat confusing: My files are either articles to be (with the appropriate headlines) or notes where headlines usually formulate the topic the note is about. Todo items, on the other hand, would be »clarify the paragraph«, »check what X says about Y«, »add more sources«, etc. As it is TODOs are not integrated but stand out, breaking the structure of the file. How about allowing TODO items in comments? This would seem much more natural to me: a TODO item should not be part of your text but disappear when it is done. -- Florian Beck

Re: [O] Python script to download Google Calendar events
Hi Felix,
Small disclaimer: I've tested this on Mac OS X only, using Python 2.7.2.
It took me a while to get the gpg part working but now its working nicely :)
I had to remove -no-tty for some reason.
getting from
authinfo = os.popen('gpg -q -no-tty -d ~/org/google_passwd.org.gpg').read()
to
authinfo = os.popen('gpg -q -d ~/org/google_passwd.org.gpg').read()
This is working under Arch-Linux, obvious after tweaking to use python2
and not python3.
I will test if I could add the generated file to my agenda.
This would allow me to merge the google calendar with org.
Basically, I started to use the google calendar since most of the time I
add events on my smartphone. Adding a quick event is, for now, much
easier using the google calendar rather then trying to sync via
org-mobile. I also appreciate the calendar view on small screens rather
then a text-based view. A sync between org-mode and google events is not
necessary as long as I stick with the way to add/change events only on
my mobile phone. (but sure it would be awesome if there would be a real
sync).
Lets see how it works out.

I've been using Org-mode with the goal of creating reproducible research, where the LaTeX output is just one part of the package. In my case, this is something that requires Org-mode for its ability to pass results between code blocks written in different languages. I can't do these things in AucTeX. At first, like you, I was suspicious of adding a layer between me and LaTeX. I was impatient with figuring out how to make the little things work right. I'm still not able to control LaTeX as finely as I'd like from within Org-mode, but I've managed to close the gap sufficiently that my last four publications were authored completely with Org-mode. Are these publicly accessible? I think that would be a great advertisement for Org as a publishing environment if you could link to source and paper - Carsten Aloha Carsten, The first of what I hope will be three public reproducible research papers written in Org-mode is now at https://ts...@github.com/tsdye/hawaii-colonization.git This is a fairly simple example. The Org-mode file depends only on R source code blocks. The same paper probably could have been implemented in Sweave (which I haven't used). Much of the analysis was carried out with a web-based software tool for calibrating radiocarbon dates called BCal. BCal lacks a batch mode facility and can't be called directly from the Org-mode file, AFAIK. The maintainers of the BCal software came up with a way to share my BCal project files, so my archaeological colleagues have access to all my work. BCal output is included in the git repo as csv files. I've pushed up an entry on Worg, which should appear the next time Worg is updated http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/uses.html Most of the RR framework for this project (README, Makfile, etc.) is a port of materials developed by Eric Schulte, who graciously reviewed my work (and discovered errors and omissions). I'll be happy for comments from the Org-mode community. I'm interested to see how fully it is possible to realize the potential of reproducible research (and believe very strongly that Org-mode is the best way to do so).

Dye t...@tsdye.com wrote: Aloha Rafael, Sorry, I thought you might as well be interested in my point of view. First: I am pretty new to Org-mode but I am using LaTeX a while now and I am even teaching LaTeX to motivated beginners. Is there a reason not to have everything in one .org file? I find Org-mode's ability to fold on headlines and to edit subtrees in indirect buffers very convenient, even for long documents. For my work, that functionality has replaced LaTeX \include files. I did not follow the thread here but I do think I get the idea that you want to replace LaTeX with Org-mode and generate a PDF via LaTeX/PDF-export functionality of Org-mode. On the one hand, I do agree that (simple) PDF documents are written very easily with Org-mode. But on the other hand you are going to add just another layer. This means that you probably end up wanting this LaTeX feature in Org-mode, that other handy LaTeX feature too and so forth. In my point of view, if you leave the basic stuff, you should stick to LaTeX. And I do have good news to you: You are very fortune because Emacs does have the IMHO most advanced editor support for LaTeX: AucTeX (with all of its extensions like preview-latex and RefTeX). I plan to use Org-mode as an outline tool for larger documents, where the basic structure evolves, keywords are moved from one part to the other. But before I start to write the detailed document content, I move to AucTeX, having the great possibilities for writing documents that end up being great PDFs. But this is just my point of view. -- Thomas S. Dye http://www.tsdye.com -- Thomas S. Dye http://www.tsdye.com
[O] Using MobileOrg without sync?
I installed MobileOrg on an HTC desire. The idea was to just use it to take notes, no sync to an emacs with org-mode would be needed. But I can't figure out how to skip the sync configuration menu. All of the documentation I find when searching, is about syncing with org-mode. Isn't it possible to use MobileOrg without sync? Thanks! - Steinar

Isn't it possible to use MobileOrg without sync? Not sure, but MobileOrg (at least on Android) is not very sophisticated for note taking. For sure, it's not a stand-alone org-mode for Android as you might have expected. For example, there's no widget (activity in andro-speak) to input timestamps and stuff like that. I use it, but mainly for viewing my agendas pushed from org-mode and for capturing quick and ugly notes, which I format correctly, timestamp, tag, and refile after pulling them to my emacs. So I see no reason to use MobileOrg if you don't want to interact with org-mode. Probably, you'd be better off with a plain text editor (Jota Text Editor is quite good and free software).

Hi Jason, Jason F. McBrayer wrote: I still will give it a try for a couple of days. But, as of now, nothing beats Consolas yet... I /think/ that in X, emacs will select the closest font it can find to in order to get the characters it needs. However, in Windows, it will only use the default font (or whatever is explicitly specified for the face), even if that font is missing characters. The only workaround I've found for buffers that need a lot of Unicode characters is to use DejaVu Sans Mono. Consolas is very nice, but its Unicode coverage is not good. That could explain why I was sure that I did get a bit more representable characters when using Consolas under Ubuntu: they came from another font. Thanks for the explanation...

Re: [O] org-mode fontification error when exporting to LaTeX
Hi, try doing (setq debug-on-error t) and then re-export; this should give you a backtrace. but sometimes fontification stuff can have errors without backtraces. try checking the *Messages* buffer. misbehaving font-lock rules and improperly defined faces can also be issues.
