Yes. That was it. After changing

org-export-preserve-breaks

to nil the breaks are gone.
Sorry,  I did not know how the exporter works. I did therefore not check the 
export options.

Re: [O] Release 7.6

2011-07-13 Thread Christian Moe

Hi all,

Better late than never:

From the joy of Lilypond snippets (thanks, Martyn) in ODT exports 
(thanks, Jambu), to time arithmetic in tables (thanks, Eric)...


7.6 rocks (thanks Bastien).

Yours,

Dear all,

I'm releasing Org 7.6.

You can get it from the website as an archive:

   http://orgmode.org/org-7.6.zip
   http://orgmode.org/org-7.6.tar.gz

Apologies for the delay between 7.5 and 7.6 -- it has been hectic times.
I owe a big *thank* to everyone who maintain a high level of activity,
both in the code and on the mailing list.

In particular: Carsten, Eric Schulte, Nicolas Goaziou, David Maus,
Julien Danjou, Jambunathan K, Michael Brand, Achim Gratz, Eric S. Fraga,
Nick Dokos, Lawrence Mitchell, Memnon Anon, Bernt Hansen, Sébastien
Vauban, Thomas S. Dye, Manuel Giraud, Karl Voit, Huy, ... and many
more!  Thanks to all.

The highlight of this release is the new ODT exporter, which lives in
the contrib/ directory but will soon make its way to the core: kudos to
Jambunathan for this addition, and thanks to him for his patience.

Below is the (incomplete) list of changes:


Version 7.6


New features and user-visible improvements
===

Integration of Jambunathan's OpenDocumentText Exporter
~~~

* Activation

   Org-mode 7.6 supports exporting to OpenDocument Text (=odt=)
   format using org-odt.el.  Depending on how you installed Org,
   this module can be enabled in one of the following ways:

   1. If you have downloaded the Org from the Web, either as a
  distribution =.zip= or =.tar.gz= file, or as a Git archive,
  enable the =odt= option in the variable =org-modules=.

   2. If you are using Org-mode 7.6 that comes bundled with
  Emacs-24.0.50 (or future Emacs-24.1), then you can install the
  OpenDocumentText exporter using the package manager.  Check
  the list of available packages with =M-x list-packages= and
  install the =org-odt= package.

   Thanks a lot to Jambunathan K for this great contribution.

* Keybindings

   The following interactive commands are provided:

   1. =C-c C-e o= (=org-export-as-odt=): Export as an =odt= file.

   2. =C-c C-e O= (=org-export-as-odt-and-open=): Export as an =odt=
  file and open the resulting file.

   See the =contrib/odt/README.org= file for further details; you
   may check in particular the commands =M-x org-lparse= and =M-x
   org-export-convert=.


Ob-Lilypond -- new Babel language to allow score generation


ob-lilypond - an org-babel language, provided to allow LilyPond
music score generation, complete with optional auditioning via
midi, whilst leveraging the full power of org mode, and literate
programming.  See [https://github.com/mjago/ob-lilypond] for more
documentation.

Thanks to Martyn Jago for this addition.

Org-Bibtex -- major improvements
~

Provides support for managing bibtex bibliographical references
data in headline properties.  Each headline corresponds to a
single reference and the relevant bibliographic meta-data is
stored in headline properties, leaving the body of the headline
free to hold notes and comments.  Org-bibtex is aware of all
standard bibtex reference types and fields.

The key new functions are

org-bibtex-check: queries the user to flesh out all required
  (and with prefix argument optional) bibtex fields available
  for the specific reference =type= of the current headline.

org-bibtex-create: Create a new entry at the given level,
  using org-bibtex-check to flesh out the relevant fields.

org-bibtex-yank: Yank a bibtex entry on the kill ring as a
  formatted Org-mode headline into the current buffer

org-bibtex-export-to-kill-ring: Export the current headline
  to the kill ring as a formatted bibtex entry.

Spreadsheet computation of durations and time values
~

If you want to compute time values use the =T= flag, either in
Calc formulas or Elisp formulas:

   Task 1   Task 2 Total
  ++-
35:0035:00   1:10:00

Values must be of the form =[HH:]MM:SS=, where hours are
optional.

Thanks to Martin Halder, Eric Schulte and Carsten for code and
feedback on this.

Links within inlined footnotes.


It as also possible to have footnotes side-by-side correctly
exported. New variables =org-export-latex-footnote-separator=,
=org-export-html-footnote-separator= and
=org-export-docbook-footnote-separator= are used to separate them
in that case.

Fontification of footnotes is also more accurate.

New variable =org-export-with-tasks=
~

Non-nil means include TODO items for export.

This may have the following values:

- tinclude tasks independent of state.
- todo  

Re: [O] How-to evaluate Java-snippets in org-mode/org-babel?

2011-07-13 Thread Torsten Wagner

Hi Eric,


You probably don't want to pass the body of a code block to a lisp
function as quoting will become a nightmare, however passing the name to
a lisp block may be reasonable.

I would suggest that rather than implementing this behavior in a code
block you take a look at starting a ob-java.el file.  A partial
implementation (e.g., only external evaluation, no session evaluation)
would be a useful contribution, and given the many helper functions and
examples present in the other ob-* files this would most likely be
easier than a custom lisp-block implementation.


o.k. the first round of evaluations is over and it worked out o.k. 
However, there was still rather much handwork to do.
I tried to get a ob-java.el file together using the template and mainly 
by looking at ob-c.el which I guess comes close what would have to be 
done for java.
However, my lisp-skills (which are close to zero) are not enough to get 
it working. The main problem was that ob-c.el is working for both C and 
C++ and all this if then else troubles me a bit.


Basically, I want only tangle the actual code block into a temp file. 
Well temp is not really right, since java demand its file structure and 
file naming. Finally execute it externally by your proposed code


javac -cp . mypackage/myclass.java
java -cp . mypackage.myclass

and return the results

Hmm maybe better to give a real world example (stripped down to make it 
shorter)

I use now the following way
/---/
#+BABEL: :mkdirp t

* Coursework 1
** StudentID1
#+BEGIN_SRC java
  package foo;
  public class Bar
  {
  private double ans = 0
  public void set(double d){
  ans = d;
  }
  public void print(){
  System.out.println(ans);
  }
  public static void main(String[] argv){
  Bar c = new Bar();
  c.set(100);
  c.print();
  }
  }
#+end_src

** StudentID2
#+BEGIN_SRC java
  package foo;
  public class Bar
  {
  private double x = 0
  public void set(double in){
  x = in;
  }
  public void print(){
  System.out.println(x);
  }
  public static void main(String[] argv){
  Bar myclass = new Bar();
  myclass.set(100);
  myclass.print();
  }
  }
#+end_src

** Result
#+srcname: result
#+begin_src sh :results output
javac -cp . foo/Bar.java
java -cp . foo.Bar
#+end_src

//


For now I only added the tangle command to a single code block and 
created the file via C-c C-v t.


#+BEGIN_SRC java tangle: foo/Bar.java

Then I rushed down to a shell block  "result" which executed the the 
above commands. I checked the results and started to remove the tangle 
object from one block and added it to the next block. Kind of tiring if 
you have several dozen of blocks.
Guess you can see from the above example the trouble of having several 
dozen of them and then tangeling them one by one and execute the result 
block ;)


I tried to make it more easy by giving the shell block a name and call 
it under each java code block. This would save me the time going up and 
down in my file.


#+call: result()

However, I noticed that the result update was always done at the first 
appearances of the call , like under the first java code block but not 
at the desired code block?!

if you fold all together it would look like

/---/
#+BABEL: :mkdirp t

* Coursework 1
** StudentID1
#+BEGIN_SRC java
#+call: result()

#+results: result
: 100.0

** StudentID2
#+BEGIN_SRC java :tangle foo/Bar.java
#+call: result()

** Result
#+srcname: result
/---/

Calling the second call function updates the result on the first!

Anyhow, I guess having it working with a ob-java.el minimal system would 
be the most easiest. Simply type C-c C-c and it would be done.


Would be very glad if you could help me to get this somehow working.

[O] babel work flow

2011-07-13 Thread Thomas S. Dye
Aloha all,

I want to use one of the dot utilities, tred, in a way that preserves my
ability to distribute the Org-mode file as reproducible research, i.e.,
intermediate results should end up in the Org-mode file or be passed
along in a chain.

Right now I have a python routine that reads a couple of Org-mode tables
and outputs a valid dot graph.  I'm saving this to a file, dot-temp.gv,
and then running some shell commands, like this:

#+begin_src sh
  tred dot-temp.gv > test.gv
  dot -o test.pdf -Tpdf test.gv
  open test.pdf
#+end_src

The graph is just what I want, but I can't see how to automate the
process in Org-mode.  In particular, the tred step trips me up.  Do I
have to make babel, tred-aware?

[O] [babel] Problem with tangling and newlines

which is not executable anymore because the pipe is not ending the line of

This is quite recent (v7.6?).

Same here.  

Some custom setting (global or per-file) is kicking in Rainer's

Looking at the code, I believe these options may not be relevant (for
the odt exporter)

Your org file doesn't use an explicit line break or timestamps. So the
only scenario under which line breaks can occur is precisely when you
have actually requested them.

Check this variable or the corresponding OPTIONS directive.

IIRC, the (x)html exporter adds a line break after emitting an headline
which is listified.

The odt exporter doesn't emit the line break like the xhtml
exporter. (May be I was a bit mindful while typing out org-odt.el) So
the options H, toc etc may not be relevant.

[O] org-bibtex

2011-07-13 Thread Thomas S. Dye
Aloha Eric,

I ran into an odd problem exporting org-bibtex references.  It turned
out that I had inadvertently added a space, ":TYPE: book " The space is
invisible in the Org-mode buffer, but it leads to an export like this:
@book {kirch10:_how_chief_becam_kings,
}

Note the lack of contents except for the bibkey and the space between
@book and the opening curly brace.

Would it be possible to trim this field for the pleasure of clumsy
typists like me?

All the best,
Tom

Yes, please do consider signing the FSF papers to enable this and future
contributions to be included into Org-mode.

However, in this particular case, you could easily sneak your patch into
under 10 lines by replacing the `cond' with a nested `if', and I would
be happy to include such a patch immediately.

Also, for patches directed at ob-* files, if you don't mind building the

I'll happily take patches in any format.

I've tested some things on Win7 and happen to have an Emacs24 installed
there, so I compiled the latest org-mode.  I got quite a few warnings
that I've never seen before with Emacs23, so I assume this is Emacs24
tightening the screws on some loseness.  I don't remember the exact
warning text, but it was something about top-level forms and global
variables not having a prefix (presumably to keep them in their own
namespace and not step on the toes of other packages).

Could you please post your complete #+OPTIONS line - specifically the
`H: ' and `toc: ' option? 

How exactly are you exporting - Are you exporting the file, a subtree,
region etc etc? 

What interactive command are you using for export?

This is beacause there is an explicit line break at the end of the list
items.

If you open content.xml and remove the  and save the
buffer, does the altered odt file match your expectations. 

If you export the above outline with the same settings, does the HTML
exporter also introduce  at the end of the list items?

odt exporter is a derived from the html exporter and mimics the HTML
exporter mindlessly. I believe the line breaks can be removed.

Once I get the relevant details from you I can post a patch after a
closer look.

There is no technical reason why sessions are not supported for node.js.
At the time ob-js.el was written node was still fairly young, and there
was no real Emacs support for node.js sessions.

Re: [O] Again problems with latex inside footnotes.

2011-07-13 Thread Rafael Calsaverini
Hi Bastien,


I have enough interest in using org-mode to produce latex texts to get
involved. I can't do it right now cause I'm in a critical time to produce
results for my thesis, but I've been delaying learning e-lisp and taking a
good look on org-mode for some time.

Nick Dokos above said that org-mode uses a huge regexp to parse the latex.
When this pressing phase pass I'll certainly take a look on that. I played a
bit (only a bit) with funcional parsers in Haskell (monadic parsers and
parsers based on arrows) and, in my experience, they are much, much more
easy to write and more powerful than regexp's (they can parse html! :D).
Well, lisp is functional... Maybe I'll take a look at this in the near
future.

I think it is an unnecessary restriction. I remember some people use
inline tasks without even a title (they only write the stars).

IMO, inline tasks are used in two distinct fashions. Obviously, one is
to use them as tasks. The other one is to use them as marginal notes,
like drawers with a title. Let's not forget that second category, unless
we provide an alternative solution for them, i.e. an annotation system.

For the record, there is also a degenerated version of inline tasks in
which "*** END" is optional. Those cannot hold any contents,
though.

Of course, this is needed as well. Or maybe this is a wrong use of them: to
make things outstand as notes in the produced PDF (with todonotes package, in
my case, for the inline "tasks" -- or "notes" then).

I'm divided about this, as you can see. Maybe, though, I have to respect the

[O] Problems with executing babel code

After a recent git pull, I've been having some problems executing and
editing babel code.  The following will execute:

#+srcname: Blah1
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results value
  (concat "" "works")
#+end_src

#+results: Blah1
: works

#+call: Blah1(x=1) :results value raw

works



#+srcname: Blah4(x)

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (concat "" "works")
#+end_src

#+results:
: works

#+call: Blah4(x=1) :results value raw

#+results: Blah4(x=1)
works


but this

#+srcname: Blah2(x)
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :results value
  (concat "doesn't" "work")
#+end_src

#+call: Blah2(x=1) :results value raw

fails with the error message "setf: Wrong type argument: consp, nil", when
it had previously worked.  nb. the only difference between Blah4 and Blah2,
is the white space between the srcname and begin_src.  I get the same error
when I try and edit the code with C-'.  I'm not sure exactly when this
started, this was probably the first git pull I have done in a month or so.
Sorry I can't help track down this problem further, my lisp skills are slim

I'm talking about the way they _look_.  So many asterisks looks
cumbersome to mee, and I'd favor a non-intrusive syntax like the 
one proposed above.

My question was: what is the rationale behind using so many asterisks?

I can think of three things:

1. people want inline tasks with possibly no TODO keyword
2. people prefer to detect them *very easily*
3. changing the syntax of inline tasks from changing todos
   (like !TODO) is too complicated code-wise

You cannot.  Storing and retrieving the folded state of a document is a

Though, there are differences between inline tasks and headlines:

- inline tasks are delimited with an ** END marker (many asterisks)

- hence, they can contain a lot of things inside them:
  + paragraphs
  + lists
  + etc.

I am sure they could somehow be improved, but I already use them a lot for the
big advantage they offer: being tasks, and not breaking the document structure
(not adding levels in your document).

Your proposition would be (very) nice when we don't have to link a note to the
task. Does that mean it should be added?  Does that mean that, then, the notes
could or should be made available thru drawers?

All such questions certainly merit more attention.

It is more than 10 lines long, so for the patch to be applied we would
need you to sign FSF papers.  I will send them to you privately.

We might consider this.  

I doubt updating on saving is the right thing to do -- people tend to
save very often, and for solving problems like yours, it will be as slow
as the current interface.

We need to be more clever in defining the update cycle for caches, and
this depends on _what_ the cache is containing.

You will need to live with it for now.

What do you mean?

What I can think of are "tag aliases": for example, the tag ":code:"
would be an alias for ":code python lisp:".

The buffer would display the alias.

Tag search would match the expanded version.

This adds a semantic layer for tags, so maybe there are complexities
I cannot think of right now, but I think it might be interesting.

What do you think?

As suggested, you want to check inline tasks.

I really don't like the current syntax for inline tasks, I would much
prefer something like special TODO keywords:

* !TODO This would be an inline task, not a headline

But perhaps I'm missing something about why the current inline task
syntax is useful.  I'd be interested in hearing more by people who are
actually using them...

Thanks for your input!

Yes, we need to rework the way the exporters handle espace chars,
especially the LaTeX one --- it's not only ugly and buggy.

Don't hold your breath though, I won't be on this before 7.7.

Thanks for your understanding,

This looks nice.  I've not tested it yet, I'm busy with the release.

Would you have any objection if I put this in this section of Worg:

You need to do M-x org-indent-mode RET in the file you need this special
indentation feature.

[O] Inconsistent behaviour when #+setupfile is used recursively

2011-07-13 Thread Stefan Vollmar
Hi,

we use Org-mode for software documentation and have come across the following 
behaviour with version 7.6 (release_7.6.71.g22fa9):

our documentation is located in the directory doc/usage, e.g. 
doc/usage/index.org or doc/usage/tutorial.org, whereas Org-Mode's setupfiles 
are stored in doc/common/org, e.g. doc/common/org/setup-toc-large or 
doc/common/org/setup-common. When we include a setupfile from 
doc/usage/index.org using

#+setupfile: ../common/org/setup-toc-large

everything works fine. The path of the setupfile is relative to the path of 
index.org.

However, when setup-toc-large itself includes another setupfile with 
setup-common using a relative path, the path is still treated as relative to 
index.org, not relative to setup-toc-large. Therefore, when using the line

#+setupfile: setup-common

within setup-toc-large, Org-Mode fails to find setup-common. When changing the 
above line to

#+setupfile: ../common/org/setup-common

the documentation builds successfully. 

We would expect Org-mode to search for an include file relative to the file 
that contains the setupfile-statement. Maybe a simple solution would be to 
temporarily set the current working dir to the path of the including file 
(around line 17620 in org.el)? Many thanks in advance!

Warm regards,
 Stefan
