Re: [O] Per-file attachment directories
Hi, putting the definition at the end of the file appears to work. At least for two org files of mine which didn't work before. But it's still a bug that definitions at the beginning are silently ignored for seemingly unrelated parts, isn't it? I'll post a bug report to the mailing list. Anyway, thanks for your help!

A good tip is to put them inside a * File Local Variables heading so that they don't stay inside another heading. You can set the noexport tag to avoid exporting this heading. Also, you can use the function add-file-local-variable to add a new local variable.

[O] [Bug] local variables definition at beginning of file is ignored
Hi everybody, in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/47043 I've posted two examples of local file definitions at the top of an org file which are silently ignored for seemingly unrelated parts in the org file. The definitions work if they are put at the end of the org file. This inconsistency is a bug, isn't it? Also, are local variables documented somewhere? I couldn't find anything in the manual.

I cannot help you directly in that I don't know how to /flow/ text (or
code) from one column to the next. I don't think it is actually
possible in beamer.
However, it *is* straightforward to flow text from one slide to the next
by simply adding =allowframebreaks= to the beamer environment
arguments. For instance,
#+begin_src org
*** Code example
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_envargs: [allowframebreaks]
:END:
#+LATEX: {\scriptsize
#+begin_example
code goes here
#+end_example
#+LATEX: }
#+end_src
The slides will automatically be numbered using roman numerals should
more than one slide (aka frame in beamer speak) be required.
I use latex directives to make the font a little smaller to ensure that
lines with within the slide width-wise.

It is a nice workaround.
But here in my org file, I have to put the allowframebreaks in level
two headlines (probably because of my setting #+BEAMER_FRAME_LEVEL: 2),
otherwise it does not take effect.

Re: [O] Bug: File Links [6.33x]

If you are at all serious about using org-mode, you probably need to install the 7.7 release (or if you are willing to live on the edge, clone the git repository and enjoy all the up-to-date features - and some breakages, but ime, breakages get fixed quickly).

Re: [O] Feature Requests: `org-refile-targets'
on Wed Sep 14 2011, Dave Abrahams dave-AT-boostpro.com wrote: Hi all, I have two related feature requests: 1. The ability to refile based on properties. I have a bunch of items with a :CATEGORY: entry in their property drawer. I would like such items always to be refile targets. So I'd like, perhaps, a regexp for property matching, e.g. \\`:CATEGORY:.* 2. In-buffer settings for `org-refile-targets'. What makes an appropriate target in one file may not be a good target in another, and I want to be able to distribute the file with it refiling options built-in. I can live without #2, since I can always use Emacs' file-local variables to set `org-refile-targets', but #1 feels more urgent. Actually, I can't live without #2. Setting a file-local variable works fine until I am in the agenda, because the setting doesn't get translated to the agenda buffer(!) -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
[O] Problems with pdf export (and bibtex) after upgrading to TeXLive-2011 on Lion
After upgrading to Lion and TeXLive-2011, I found my pdflatex export was no longer working (in that it would only call pdflatex once, and would not run bibtex). Having spent a couple of hours finding a solution, I thought I should share to perhaps save some others the trouble. I had to do two things to fix the problem: 1) set my org-latex-to-pdf-process variable to (pdflatex -interaction batchmode -output-directory %o %b bibtex %b pdflatex -interaction batchmode -output-directory %o %b pdflatex -interaction batchmode -output-directory %o %b). Using -interaction nonstopmode (which I was in my previous setting) no longer seemed to work - the whole thing seemed to exit after the first call to pdflatex, so that subsequent commands were not executed. 2) add the line openout_any=r (or openout_any=a) to the file /usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf.cnf. Apparently, the default is openout_any=p, where the p stands for 'paranoid', and as a result bibtex refuses to write the .blg file. Cheers, Tony Ware -- http://www.math.ucalgary.ca/~aware
