Re: [O] Babel: communicating irregular data to R source-code block

The example is this: read.csv(tf, fill = TRUE, header = FALSE, col.names = paste(V, seq_len(ncol), sep = )) where read.csv is a synonym of read.table with preset arguments. This explains why the sixth line wraps. . . . Thanks, Tom. I had just run across this myself.

Re: [O] Google Summer of Code -- 3 Org projects for our first participation!
we will have 3 students hacking Org thanks to Google and the GSoC program. The list of all accepted projects can be checked here: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/projects/list/google/gsoc2012 Congratulations to Thorsten, Aurélien and Andrew who made it! And special thanks to Thorsten, who really pushed me into this. Here is a short description of these projects: Bugpile - a bugtracker for GNU Emacs Org-mode written in Elisp and Org-mode (Thorsten) The Bugpile project has two goals: 1. Develop a bugtracker (called Bugpile) for GNU Emacs Org-mode, using Elisp, Elnode, Org-mode, and a dVCS. 2. As part of the engineering process, abstract out a web-framework (called iOrg) based on these GNU Emacs technologies. A web-framework written in Elisp, with Org files used for database functionality, is a new approach that enables interactive web applications built on top of GNU Emacs. Bugpile is an example application, but useful in itself. Great news! For the dim witted (me) can you explain if Bugpile is meant to be a bug tracker specifically for tracking bugs in Emacs and org, or can it be used as a generic bug tracker for any project. Ian.

For the dim witted (me) can you explain if Bugpile is meant to be a bug tracker specifically for tracking bugs in Emacs and org, or can it be used as a generic bug tracker for any project. Thats a very interesting question, since there are two somehow conflicting goals involved. The original project idea was to extend Org-mode for a more interactive kind of web-programming, i.e. having buttons and forms on your webpages and a kind of database in the background that stores changing state, and some logic that reacts to user action (instead of just publishing static web content). Bugpile is kind of a (useful) pilot project for this idea, and during its development an Emacs/Org-mode based web-framework (iOrg=interactive Org) should emerge. Because this is about interactive web programming, bugpile should be rather generic and accessible for anybody - they don't need Emacs, they can use the web UI. A web-based bugtracker is nothing new, one could just choose one out of several free tools on the market. The exciting thing is being able to write one based on Org-mode and other Emacs libraries like Elnode, i.e. developing the web-frameworg iOrg. On the other hand, Emacs user don't like to use web-interfaces, they want to use Emacs to interact with the application. Thus the USP of bugpile could be that it is not only written on top of Emacs, but can be efficiently used from inside Emacs. Since time is limited, the main goal of the project is to develop the iOrg webframework and the generic webbased bugtracker bugpile as a tangible pilot project/ proof of concept. An optional, but highly desirable additional output would be a Magit-like bugpile-mode for Emacs. But I would prefer to keep it optional to limit the scope of my GSoC project. This is still not defined, I would be happy about some community feedback, and will of course discuss with my mentor(s). -- cheers, Thorsten

Re: [O] [PATCH] Allow %num escapes to capture templates, expanded to text entered in num'th prompt
I've pushed a change to this new feature: http://orgmode.org/w/?p=org-mode.git;a=commit;h=1666b9 Using %n is not good, because it will match many escaped strings that you don't want to match. Using %\n looks good to me as it resonates with \1 in replace-regexp. Toby, let me know if you agree with this change. Thanks! -- Bastien
[O] Capture feature suggestion: place the mark from a template
I use a capture template like this: (t Todo entry (file+headline todo.org Tasks) * TODO %?\n :HIDDEN:\n %U\n :END:\n%! :prepend t) to create todo items. I want the cursor to be at the end of the headline so I can type that in, but then I want to be able to quickly jump to the end so I can type any details that I want. I use the mark for that purpose, so I can type C-x C-x to jump right where I want. So I modified the function org-capture-place-entry to add the following lines: (goto-char beg) (if (re-search-forward %! end t) (progn (push-mark nil t nil) (replace-match ))) just before the final (goto-char beg) that will put the cursor position at %?. (I guess I could have put that following ``(goto-char beg)'' inside that ``(progn ...)''.) Would anyone else find this a useful addition to the capture template mechanism?

[O] Old mailto: notation?
Hi, Org people. I decided to clean up all those emails lying around in my notes, and better validate ~/.ecompleterc against other Org information I have. A bit of a burden to do, but I guess it has to be done one day. There are many occurrences of u...@domain.name notations in my files, which I could all turn into mailto:u...@domain.name;, but yet, I still have a bit of nostalgia for the older notation. Is there some easy way to get Org to read and understand the older notation as meaning the same as the equivalent mailto: notation, and then, of course, behaving like it? Or else, should I rather just forget about the old notation, give in, and turn all occurrences to mailto:s? François

[O] Small grammar tweaks in export sections of org.texi
Hi all,
The attached patch provides a number of minor (and pedantic, I suppose) grammar
tweaks to doc/org.texi.
I've labelled it a TINYCHANGE. I am not sure of the exact bounds of what can
count as a tiny change, but all this does is insert `a', `an' and `in' in a
number of places in the docs.
I've quite a few other typo corrections / phrasing improvements I could make to
the docs, but I cannot presently sign the FSF papers. (I am on leave, living
abroad for the year, and won't be able to get my employer's sign-off until I
return home.) I'd appreciate being told if further documentation patches can be
accepted in these circumstances. If they cannot, I will have to wait until I
can address the FSF papers issue with my employer.
Thanks and best,
Brian vdB

You can add any number of merge drivers to your git config. A merge driver is supposed to know about the expected content of the file types it gets registered for and be indeed more clever about merging than the standard merge algorithms. In particular it needs to know some syntax rules and the semantics of the elements described by that syntax. Let's say you want a merge driver for Changelogs: the standard merge will always produce merge conflicts if two changes are made independently as both changes start at the same point in the ancestor. A merge driver for these knows that the entries in a changelog (the syntax says how these should look) are independent of each other and should be sorted by date (that's the semantics). So as long as both changes only add to the Changelog, no merge conflict occurs: the two hunks will get applied in the correct succession.

One of the ideas behind the new exporter is that Org-mode source prepared for one target can be easily exported to other targets. I'm keen to learn how to use it for the possibility of also exporting to a target such as ODT that converts easily to Word, which I think all of my clients use. My brief experience with the LaTeX exporter so far has been very positive and I'm relatively certain that it will be the default export engine in the not too distant future. If the ACM template is written for the new exporter, then its use life will likely be enhanced. Also, I agree with Jambunathan's comment that exercising the new exporter on a practical project might possibly indicate how it could be made better. On a practical note, using the new exporter is easy. I have these two lines (along with other configuration) in an Org-babel code block that I use to setup Org-mode: (require 'org-export) (require 'org-e-latex) Then, I can access the dispatcher with M-x org-export-dispatch and choose the target.

Meanwhile is there some sort of test suite to ensure contributions don't break existing features? ~Bill On Thu, Apr 19, 2012 at 9:08 PM, Nick Dokos nicholas.do...@hp.com wrote: Eric Schulte (cc:ed) implemented accumulating properties with commit 3af89e696a32afcc39f2e3bdb6132ac588d530ae. The commit adds a function org-update-property-plist which takes care of the '+' case in property names. But as you observed, it does not seem to work. I don't really understand what should be happening: what I do know is that when org-entry-get calls the above function, the props parameter is nil, whereas the function expects it to contain the inherited sestting. So it may be that the function is expecting something that is not going to happen or org-entry-get passes it the wrong thing somehow. I don't know which one of these two is correct (or perhaps some other thing is wrong), but in any case there does seem to be a disconnect. Nick

Re: [O] [beamer] When are :BEAMER_envargs: used or ignored?
James Harkins jamshar...@gmail.com writes:
According to the online documentation [1], it seems
that :BEAMER_envargs: should apply to all Beamer environments:
And it does generally although I have tried setting it (for your example
below) to {ybg} and it disappears. If I set it to [ybg], it does appear
in the exported latex. I haven't delved into the beamer export code in
a long while but it must be checking for constructs of the form [...] or
..., I would guess.
In any case, addressing your real question:
[...]
Or, the simple question -- how do you set the colors of a color box in
Beamer export?
Oh, wait, I just figured it out... though you would have to admit,
this is not remotely obvious.
** Frame 2 \\ where we will not use columns
#+LaTeX: \setbeamercolor{ybg}{bg=yellow}
*** ybg :B_beamercolorbox:
Please test this stuff!
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_env: beamercolorbox
:END:
It kind of strikes me like an epic hack: you have to name the headline
after the Beamer color ID, instead of naming the headline after the
content... not very /org/anized.
Well, the problem is that a beamercolorbox is *not* a block and does not
expect a title parameter. It actually expects only a colour (well, a
beamer colour structure, to be precise, such as the one you have
defined). What is /org/ expected to do with the entry you specify?
To achieve what you want (maybe, as I am not clear exactly what you want
;-), you should probably define a block *within* the beamercolorbox or
vice versa. For instance:
--8---cut here---start-8---
** Frame 2 \\ where we will not use columns
*** ybg:B_beamercolorbox:
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_env: beamercolorbox
:END:
Title :B_block:
:PROPERTIES:
:BEAMER_env: block
:END:
Please test this stuff!
--8---cut here---end---8---
Worth a bug report or feature request?
It is not a bug, IMO.
Whether it should be a feature request or not is debatable. The syntax
is, at present, fairly straightforward in that the headline text becomes
the argument to the environment defined. What that environment does
with the argument is obviously up to the environment itself!
HTH,
eric

Hi Bastien, FYI I sent an e-mail to b...@altern.org and it bounced. Bastien b...@altern.org wrote: Inserting warntime in the headline looks hackish. Yeah it's an ugly hack. It would belong in the time stamp. Adding something there is beyond my skill. Maybe have a look at contrib/lisp/org-notify.el by Peter? Someone suggested that on the mailing list.
