The problem really is that there are could potentially TWO latest versions of a package - a development version that is a daily snapshot and a stable release (What is "latest", is defined by the user preferences) - and BOTH of them cannot be distributed in existing scheme of things. ie., you either have latest devel or the latest stable but not both.

Here is the relevant variable.
,[ C-h v org-export-odt-styles-file RET ]
| org-export-odt-styles-file is a variable defined in `org-odt.el'.
| Its value is nil
|
| Documentation:
| Default style file for use with ODT exporter.
| Valid values are path to an styles.xml file or a path to a valid
| *.odt or a *.ott file or a list of the form (FILE (MEMBER1
| MEMBER2 ...)). In the last case, the specified FILE is unzipped
| and MEMBER1, MEMBER2 etc are copied in to the generated odt
| file. The last form is particularly useful if the styles.xml has
| reference to additional files like header and footer images.
|
|
| You can customize this variable.
|
| [back]
`
Here is a specific example:
,
| (setq org-export-odt-styles-file
| '("~/tmp-orgmode/Thu Thong Bao - Trai Ve Nguon XV (2011).odt"
| ("styles.xml" "Pictures/1274034B83A526F3.png")))
|
| the styles.xml and header images would get copied on to the generated
| odt file.
|
| If the desired styles.xml makes no references to other files (as in the
| example above) then the above variable could be set to
|
| (setq org-export-odt-styles-file
| "~/tmp-orgmode/Thu Thong Bao - Trai Ve Nguon XV (2011).odt")
|
| or
|
| (setq org-export-odt-styles-file "~/elisp/styles.xml")
`
I am seeing that customization interface for org-export-odt-styles-file
variable is only partially done. If the customization interface doesn't
do the right thing for you, you can use the setq form temporarily.
The default styles file used by the odt exporter is:
org-root-dir/contrib/odt/styles/OrgOdtStyles.xml
There is also an automatic styles file in there.
If you are interested in customizing the styles you could do this:
1. Export test.org to test.odt
2. Open test.odt and use the OpenOffice stylist to change the
user-defined styles. The Org-specific user stlyes have `Org' as a
prefix.
Hint: One can use M-x occur RET Org RET in OrgOdtStyles.xml buffer to
see the Org specific styles.
Caution: The style-names used in the styles.xml are the style-names
written out in content.xml. So it is important that the style-names
be not changed at all.
3. Save the newly styled test.odt as say ~/.emacs.d/org-odt/custom.odt
or ~/.emacs.d/org-odt/custom.ott file.
4. Use one of the following:
1. Customize org-export-odt-styles-file to the custom.odt or
custom.ott file.
2. If you are a bit adventurous, you can open the newly saved
test.odt in an archive-mode, extract the styles.xml and save it to
~/.emacs.d/org-odt/user-styles.xml.
Then customize org-export-odt-styles-file to point to the above
styles.xml file.
I anticipate more questions and follow-on enhancements to styles
interface as more and more people start using it. So all inputs are
welcome.

[O] Customising C-c C-c behaviour
Hi, I would like to customise the behaviour of C-c C-c on plain text (specifically I would like to make it alter the tags, as if the cursor were on the item header). A variable exists called org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-hook, but if any function contained in that variable runs, it overrides all other C-c C-c behaviour. I want my customisation to only run if C-c C-c has nothing "more interesting" to do. Possibilities include: 1. Advising org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c. However it seems difficult to tell whether this function has "succeeded" from its return value, ie there doesn't seem to be any standard value returned when the command has succeeded. OTOH if it fails, it throws a simple error, which I could catch -- but then I would not know if the error I was handling was actually caused by something else going wrong in the depths of the function. This could be solved by altering org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c so it uses a specific, identifiable error symbol instead of 'error'. 2. Creating another variable called org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-post-hook which runs after all other possibilities have failed, but just before org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c fails. Both options would be easy to implement. Option 1 just involves adding the following code: (put 'org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-error 'error-message "C-c C-c can do nothing useful at this location") (put 'org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-error 'error-conditions '(error org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-error)) And changing the '(error ...' line at the end of org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c to: (signal 'org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-error nil) This error is still a subtype of 'error' so it behaves the same, unless someone is specifically trying to catch it. Any thoughts, objections, or better ideas?

[O] Bug: Org-Babel Mode R Plot Output to LaTeX File [Babel] [7.5]
Hi, I like org-mode and org-babel mode very much, but recently I am having
problems outputting R graphics to LaTeX report with
Org-Babel mode. Attached is my test file, where I am generating 4
simple plots of different sizes and format (.png or .pdf). The HTML
export is satisfactory, however, the LaTeX export (C-c C-e l) presents two
problems:
1. All 4 plots have the same size (10em) which is different from the
header specification and is too small.
\includegraphics[width=10em]{a1.png} ...
\includegraphics[width=10em]{a2.png} ...
\includegraphics[width=10em]{a3.pdf} ...
\includegraphics[width=10em]{a4.pdf} ...
2. While exporting to PDF file, the R code is mysteriously lost in
the R execution for the PDF output of the plots and the compilation failed
correspondingly:
> pdf(file="a3.pdf",width=5,height=5)
>
> dev.off()
> pdf(file="a4.pdf",width=10,height=10)
>
> dev.off()
Hopefully you can replicate my errors and help me on this. Thanks a
lot!

Is there any particular reason for it to be hardcoded? Apart from the
fact that /well it just is this way right now/ I mean.
That'd be useful information for anyone interested in changing it. Then
you can still just tell them to write a patch if they care that much
('cause even in org-mode-land patches don't write themselves just yet)
[I just had the most awesome idea for a feature request].
If it's "just" about inheriting from a variable in some 300 places it
could at least be discussed.

[O] Org-mode on GNU ELPA
Org-mode on GNU ELPA does not distribute the contrib-directory. Is there any chance this could be added? Other than that, I think the GNU ELPA archive is synced with the trunk/master rather than with the actual releases. I often encounter minor bugs when working with org which usually disappear after updating from GNU ELPA again. Is is possible that the mainline release (7.6) is distributed via ELPA rather than a bleeding edge development version?
[O] Thesaurus terms as org tags -- feature request
Dear all Some time ago I floated a "tag hierarchy" idea for org-mode. It didn't gain much interest (through I received some very kind replies). http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-03/msg01393.html There are other similar ideas here. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-10/msg01171.html http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-10/msg00611.html What I've discovered since then is that what we are trying to reinvent is a thesaurus concept, including a controlled vocabulary concept. Thesauri seem to be well understood, and are standardised by ISO 2788. What I am looking for then is a way of managing org tags using a very simple thesauri terms -- inside an org file. There's software out there to manage thesauri, but I think would be fantastic to instead build taxonomies inside org-mode and use this to drive org exports. The problem I'm trying to solve is that, in big publishing projects, the number of tags can grow and might eventually need to be managed outside org-mode. (I'm already keeping lists of my tags inside org-mode tables.) What I would love to do is build a simple taxonomy of tags from a controlled vocabulary -- that I can manage entirely inside org-mode. Then we could: a) have an orderly list of tags (using the thesaurus "USE" concept, etc.) to restrict tag bloat, and in fact have a controlled list of tags/terms. b) allow nesting of tags (using the thesuaris Broader Term (BT) and Narrower Term (NT) concepts). This would allow export of, say, :colour: to export :red: :green: and :blue:. It would also allow publishing project to be managed by arranging NT/BT in one place in the org file, rather than micromanaging tags in headings. Additionally, tags could belong to more than one taxonomy in the same publishing project. (The dreaded DITA 1.2 spec now has something like this in the guise of Subject Scheme maps. But I don't want to look at DITA again.) http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.2/cs01/spec/common/subjectScheme.html I hope you know what I am on about...thanks again for your time. John Tait

[O] agenda view: global todo list
Hi; I'm relatively new to org-mode, I'm liking what I see so far, but I have two questions. I'm using emacs 23.2.1, org-mode 6.33x I have org-todo-keywords set to ((sequence "TODO(t!)" "ANALYSIS(a!)" "FEEDBACK(f@)" "VERIFY(v!)" "WAIT(w@/!)" "|" "DONE(d@)" "DELEGATED(e@)" "CANCELLED(c@)")) and I have a org-remember-template set up to capture (among other things) random TODOs into a file named 'todo.org'. 1. In Global TODO agenda view (C-a t) the '# r' 'redo' command confuses me a bit. In the menu at the top of the view, '0 r' maps to 'ALL' and '1 r' to the list of unclosed TODOs, yet they both produce the same listing for me. I was expecting '0 r' to produce a listing of all TODO's, whatever state they were in. This may just be a misunderstanding of what 'ALL' really means: is 'ALL' just a synonym for 'TODO'? 2. With org-todo-keywords defined as above... Regarding the interaction of 'remember' and 'org-todo-keywords. When I go to capture a TODO using remember, unless I set org-log-done to 'note (though I haven't tried setting it to 'time) org-mode doesn't seem to know about org-todo-keywords (even though C-hv shows that it's defined), no logging happens, and the TODOs in todo.org have only the 2 default states. When I do (setq org-log-done 'note), remember fails to log the initial change _into_ the TODO state, unlike what happens inside of any other org-mode file when I hit C-cC-t, it will only do so when I change state using C-cC-t, either in the note after I've filed it using C-cC-c, or while composing the TODO in the remember buffer. This last happenstance does leave me with a work-around: after starting to compose a remember TODO, and while still in the 'remember' buffer, I can do C-cC-t to change the state from TODO to TODO, (and then change the first TODO to "", if I'm feeling fastidious) and that will log the time of the start of the TODO. All subsequent changes to the state will be handled just as with any other TODO. So, the question is: is this just the way things are with remember and org-todo-keywords? Finally, thanks to all for their good work on this mode. It's pretty fabulous! TIA whd

Harven,
One of Org-mode's fundamental goals is to help people make more
*efficient* (sorry, •efficient•) use of their time. Screwing around
with utterly useless vanity config ("I wanna make it look COOL")
is the exact opposite.
Please don't *insult* our devs by calling this useless BS a "BUG",
let alone ask them to *waste* their precious time and skills on it.
If you manage to implement it yourself, you're welcome to send your
patch to the list. We might need it someday, when we -in a bout of
insanity- decide our target audience somehow includes twelve-year-olds.
If you find that rude, don't worry:
If our product or the technical support pertaining to it proves
unsatisfactory in any way, you're entitled to a full refund.
Just send your proof of purchase to one of our sales reps near you.
You still have the receipt don't you?
Peace

See http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html#sec-10-3 for an example that defines LaTeX and HTML exports for arbitrary tags. AFAIK, the link syntax lacks an easy way to change the function for screen display, but this would be a useful addition to Org-mode. Then, it would be a relatively simple matter to provide functions that differentiate on-screen between links used for different purposes.

[O] Thesauri to manage tags ("Tag taxonomies") -- feature request
Dear all Some time ago I floated a "tag hierarchy" idea for org-mode. It didn't gain much interest (through I received some very kind replies). http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-03/msg01393.html There are other similar ideas here by others. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-10/msg01171.html http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2010-10/msg00611.html What I've discovered since then is that what we are all maybe trying to re-invent is a thesaurus concept, including a controlled vocabulary concept. Thesauri seem to be well understood, and are standardised by ISO 2788. I use selective export using tags a lot. If I can re-phrase my original request using better language, what I am looking for is a way of managing org tags using simple thesauri terms -- inside an org file. There's software out there to manage thesauri, but I think it would be fantastic to instead build taxonomies inside org-mode and use these to drive org exports. The problem I'm trying to solve is that, in big publishing projects, the number of tags can grow and might eventually need to be managed outside org-mode. (I'm already keeping lists of my tags inside org-mode tables.) What I would love to do is build a simple taxonomy of tags from a controlled vocabulary -- that I can manage entirely inside org-mode. Then we could: a) have an orderly list of tags (using the thesaurus "USE" concept, etc. to help) to restrict tag bloat, and in fact have a controlled list of tags/terms. b) allow nesting of tags (using the thesuaris Broader Term (BT) and Narrower Term (NT) concepts). This would allow export of, say, :colour: to export :red: :green: and :blue:. It would also allow publishing project to be managed by arranging NT/BT in one place in the org file, rather than micromanaging tags in headings. Additionally, tags could belong to more than one taxonomy in the same publishing project. (The dreaded DITA 1.2 spec now has something like this in the guise of Subject Scheme maps. But I never want to look at DITA again.) http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.2/cs01/spec/common/subjectScheme.html I hope you know what I am on about...thanks again for your time. John

I agree, updating on saving would not work for large files. Maybe you could use a cache on a per file basis, creating it when org first happens to collect the data and updating it on demand. Of course, it might be out of date, which in my case would be no problem. > You will need to live with it for now. > >> 4. muse-mode has this nice feature that it easily allows you to define >> your own like >> … or >> …; not only for export but also for >> fontification.

Actually, I meant »tags« in the HTML sense.

Is there any more progress on finding and fixing this problem with org and emacs24? I just built the development version of Aquamacs (GNU Emacs 24.0.50.3).

The problem is that I like to see intermediate results in the Org-mode file and the sh block works instead with files that reside outside Org-mode. In this particular case, I'd prefer to have dot-temp.gv in a results block in the Org-mode file, and then pass this results block into a source code block where tred can manipulate it, and which returns its results to the Org-mode file. That way, the skeptical inquirer need only consult the Org-mode file to be convinced that tred removed the transitive relations from the digraph. It would be an easy matter to compare the two results blocks. All the best, Tom -- Thomas S. Dye http://www.tsdye.com

Even when running with the following config... #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (add-hook 'find-file-hook 'org-decrypt-entries) #+END_SRC ... the user shouldn't get prompted needlessly, because `org-decrypt-entries' applies `org-decrypt-entry' (which does the `auto-save-mode' check) *only* to entries with a tag matching `org-crypt-tag-matcher' [1]. So prompting should only occur for buffers for which `auto-save-mode' is enabled AND which contain one or more entries tagged with `crypt' (regardless of whether the entry is actually encrypted, but that's beside the point) UNLESS running `org-decrypt-entry' (auto-)manually for each buffer.

This is more clear to me, and makes a lot of sense. Though, what I find annoying, and the OP as well, is to be asked that question for buffers which do not contain any encrypted entry.

I don't think so. It only re-encrypts entries which are tagged :crypt: (or whatever you have `org-crypt-tag-matcher' set to), so I'd prefer users to be "forced" to at least read the docstring so as not to be using it with a false sense of security. Though this could be easily solved by automatically tagging entries upon encryption, I think it's more "considerate" to simply (ask to) disable `auto-save-mode' for the current buffer, as it's quite annoying to have an entry get re-encrypted while you're in the middle of typing something. > Best regards, > Seb > > -- > Sebastien Vauban > > Peace -- Pieter

Hi Karl, You can customize this behaviour via org-crypt-disable-auto-save You probably have it set to 'ask'. Options exist for always enabling/disabling auto save, and for encrypting the auto-saved version automatically. M-x customize-variable RET org-crypt-disable-auto-save RET Regards, .j.

So, I assume you've configured Emacs to automatically run `org-decrypt-entries' (which calls `org-decrypt-entry') whenever an org file is opened. For more info, see the `org-crypt-disable-auto-save' variable (introduced in commit 7bae2235) and this thread: - http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/41430 Peace -- Pieter
[O] disable "org-decrypt: auto-save-mode may cause leakage"
Hi! How can I auto-answer the question from the subject line with «n» (per default) any time it is asked? Background story: I am using org-decrypt on two files and I've got additional files where I do not use any encryption at all. But when I start my Emacs with my five most used org-files (which do not use encryption), I have to answer five times the question mentioned in the subject line above using «n» as answer. I've already found the comment on the bottom of [1] and the discussion of [2]. I *do* have deactivated auto-save by using the method explained in [3] for my Org-files where I am using encryption. So I am save here I guess. But what I want to get rid of is this unnecessary question. I do not want to be asked and have to answer with «no» because where it matters, I already deactivated auto-save. So auto-save should be «on» per default. How can I accomplish this behavior? And: shouldn't this be appended to [1]? 1. http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/encrypting-files.html 2. http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/43262 3. http://anirudhs.chaosnet.org/blog/2005.01.21.html -- Karl Voit

AFAIK this is because emacs-24 now supports lexical scope. The use of name prefixes is used to manage namespace as you mention, but also as convention used by the byte compiler to help distinguish between uses of lexically and dynamicly scoped variable bindings. See the emacs-24 elisp manual for more details, or ask the friednly folks on the on the emacs devel list. HTH AndyM

Perhaps Consolas falsely reports that it has those symbols. Box drawing seems to work okay here, whereas the recycling symbol is missing (it just shows a box with the hex code to indicate the missing glyph). It’s probably down to whether you have any monospace fonts which contain those glyphs. Aankhen

Why is it a problem for you to have that sh block inside your Org. It is executed automagically upon exporting, no? If yes, why is that not good enough? Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban
