Re: [O] [PATCH] Timestamps: Handle sub-10-min ranges when updating timestamps
Wow, thanks for parsing that, Nicolas. I didn't realize until just now that my git skills were so poor - I neglected the --cover-letter option, hence the utter lack of explanatory material. To answer your points: Nicolas Goaziou n.goaz...@gmail.com writes: Thanks for your patch. Would you mind providing a test-case for it? I'm not sure about the use of `org-get-compact-tod'.

Priorities don't normally need buttons to jump between states, a knob is enough: only increase/decrease priority, not jump to priority 1, jump to priority 2 etc. Outlines, on the other hand, can benefit from the ability to jump between the levels of expansion. Level 1 is very useful - it minimizes everything, showing the structure of the file. S-TAB is useful and simple, but you have to repeat several times, checking each time if it has brought you to the level that you wanted to be on. Level 2 is very useful - and cannot, unlike Level 1, be reached by S-TAB. For my gtd.org, it shows the tasks and appointments, without expanding them, as well as the project names, but not what they contain. This gives a nice overview of my projects. Level 3 is very useful - and cannot be reached by S-TAB. It shows me the separate TODOs for my projects, without revealing my notes on them, just the headings. I even bound the rest of the digits to levels and it is useful sometimes. In my opinion, these shortcuts make org-mode a better outlining tool, and should be given priority before the priority shortcuts. Slightly off-topic, these type of shortcuts is why I use Ubuntu Unity (I think I managed to turn off the spying). It's got a feature that Super+1-9 switches between applications in the sidebar slots 1-9. Sure, it's possible to do with Alt-TAB, and that's what most other desktops do, but Super+1-9 is superior, since you don't have to wait for feedback, you instantly get what you want. regards, Oleh

It sounds like you want to use tables like key-value stores. I think
adding such behavior directly to Org-mode would overly complicate the
data structures passed between code blocks (which currently only
consists of scalars and tables). However, maybe the following could
work.
Here's an example table with key/value data.
#+name: table
| keys | values |
|--+|
| foo | 1 |
| bar | 2 |
| baz | 3 |
| qux | 4 |
Here's a code block which can access the data in such a table by key.
This could be added to the library of babel to make it usable from any
Org-mode file.
#+name: by-key
#+begin_src sh :var data= :var key=
echo $data|awk {if(\$1 == \$key\) print \$2}
#+end_src
And here's an example usage.
#+headers: :results verbatim
#+begin_src sh :var foo=by-key(table,foo) :var baz=by-key(table,baz)
cat EOF
Pulling the data from the above table we find
that foo is $foo and baz is $baz.
EOF
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
: Pulling the data from the above table we find
: that foo is 1 and baz is 3.

Hi,
I am creating .svg files with R source blocks and ESS in org.
I am happily viewing them in-line in my emacs buffer.
I am happily exporting as html and viewing them in-line in the resulting web
page, including a table of images.
I do not have an approach for including them into PDF when I export-tex-pdf.
I'm thinking there might be an approach to converting them on-the-fly to png
(or something) during the export-tex-pdf.
A similar problem was addressed with custom macros here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/56532/focus=58322
But it does not work with R source blocks that produce .svg files.
Any suggestions for me? Is this a lost cause? Am I asking for too many
assumptions to be made by such an auto-conversion process that it is doomed
to fail anyway?
I have been using a variant of this workflow with some success. Using a
patch I just pushed to the master branch, you should be able to
successfully export SVG image files to LaTeX documents, using the “svg”
LaTeX package: http://www.ctan.org/pkg/svg
No configuration should be needed on the org side.
The svg LaTeX package is a bit fussy. It only works under pdfTeX (it
can be patched to work with LuaTeX, but cannot work with XeTeX at all).
It also requires you to have the inkscape command line program
installed. But within those constraints it works very nicely.
You may need to arrange for whatever compilation process you use for
LaTeX files to pass the “-shell-escape” command line option to pdftex.
This allows TeX code to execute command line programs, which is needed
to communicate with inkscape and convert the SVG into something LaTeX
can use.
I think in the long run it would be nice if Org could help you translate
the image types in your document into image types an exporter
understands (basically an expanded and generalized version of what is
already done with LaTeX snippets for non-LaTeX export). But that is
a bigger project, I think.

This looks wrong. You probably want @@latex:\includesvg{mtcars}@@ in
your org file. In any case, the output in the tex file should be just
\includesvg{mtcars}
Also, not sure how the \includegraphics is produced (are you evaluating a
source block?) but it should probably not be there, otherwise you are
going to get two images in your PDF.

Aaron Nick,
Thanks for the help. I think I'm almost there.
So far I did

other options)
* upgrade to inkscape version 0.48.+ (which is more recent than our
centOS repos proffered, but, hey) since the --export-latex switch that
svg.sty depends upon is not implemented till this version

This looks like (malformed?) org markup that has “escaped” into the
exported .tex file. Are you still using some of the custom macros from
other threads? Can you send a minimal example of the file that you are
trying to export, and the resulting exported .tex file? The .log file
produced by LaTeX when compiling the .tex file may be helpful as well.
Thanks,

Re: [O] how to handle svg files when exporting orgmode to html and pdf?
Hi Malcom,
It looks like there are two things going on. The first is that you
are (as Nick suspected) including the file twice in the document. You
should change the header of the babel block to output a SVG file:
#+begin_src R :results graphics output :exports both :file mtcars.svg
^^^
Then you don’t need the #+BEGIN/END_LATEX bit.
The other bit is the svg package failing somehow. Does the mtcars.svg
file exist in the same directory? (It isn’t being generated by the
babel block, for example). Is the inkscape binary you installed on your
$PATH? I am suspicious about this line from the log file:
,
| ! LaTeX Error: File `mtcars.zzpdf_tex' not found.
`
The “zz” should not be there. Could a stray “zz” have gotten into the
svg.sty file?
The svg package doesn’t have the greatest error reporting; if
you keep having trouble it may be helpful to add \usepackage{trace} to
the top of the document, and \traceon just before the \includesvg
command, to try to see in more detail what steps it is trying (and
possibly failing). This will generate a voluminous log file...

Aaron Ecay
Re: [O] how to handle svg files when exporting orgmode to html and pdf?
Aaron,
Yeah, the zz was added by me whilst sleuthing. Sorry for the
confusion. I added it across the board though. Before I added it, the
message had been 'mtcars.zzpdf_tex' not found.'
I know with org I can directly :export :file basename.svg
The thing I am trying to accomplish is to find an approach that works
for both org export to html and org export to latex-pdf without
having to edit the org document in between exports.
When I do :export :file basename.svg the resulting pdf does not
inline the svg. Rather it contains a link to it.
I thought the dance with the svg package was a way of accomplishing my aim.
Do you see a better way?
Thanks!

They do not, despite my adding svg to org-export-latex-inline-image-extensions. Are you suggesting that such a .svg created by org code block would be appear in the pdf created when I export to latex - pdf? I wish that also... that's what I've been trying to accomplish.
