Re: [O] To interrupt org-latex-pdf-process to regexp-replace some string of the .tex intermediate file and continue to export
John, thanks you very much.
Your code really satisfies my demand. I plan to use your function to
replace org-export.
Thanks again, and thanks Nick for your explanation.
Best regards.

Org-mode can display inline .png image but not .pdf file. Because now
org-mode can not control the width or height of shown inline image, so i
use matplotlib to produce low dpi .png image in PNG folder for inline
display and higher dpi pdf image in PDF folder for finally article export.
In .org file, the image link is like [[file:PNG\*.png]] and

that before or in org-latex-pdf-process, a regexp replace function is

Re: [O] To interrupt org-latex-pdf-process to regexp-replace some string of the .tex intermediate file and continue to export
Thanks Nick, for the more helpful explanation than mine ;)
The function I provided is part of this file:
https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/ox-manuscript.el
which I have been working on for publishing scientific manuscripts. This
file provides a new export menu option that not only removes the extensions
in the latex file, but also replaces the \bibliography{} line with the
contents of the .bbl file so that you have a single, standalone tex file
for submission. There is even an export and mail option for a pdf ;)
With this library installed, you can just type: C-c C-e j m
to build your latex file with extensions removed, bibliography replaced,
and open the pdf through the regular org-mode export menu. This may be more
helpful than trying to do the steps manually as I described.

The scr* family of LaTeX packages (aka KOMA-Script) allow you to change the margins with the DIV argument. Depending on the base font size, something like DIV13 or even DIV15 might give result closer to your goal, but .75" margins are definitely reader-unfriendly (yes, journals do that all the time, but it's still no good).

As it says in the comment:
"Run this from an org-buffer after you have exported it to a LaTeX file"
The function assumes that you have already produced a .tex file from
your .org file (e.g. with C-c C-e l l). Then, in your org file buffer
you call it:
M-x ox-manuscript-remove-image-extensions RET
> I am studying elisp now, but your code is really difficult for me, so can you
> help me dig in?
What the function does is get the filename for the current buffer
(i.e. the name of your org file), derive the name of the produced
tex file, get the contents of the tex file assigned (as a string)
to tex-contents, do a search-and-replace operation on tex-contents
and write the result back into the tex file. The search-and-replace
operation searches for strings that look like this:
\includegraphics[...]{foo.png}
and replaces each occurrence with
\includegraphics[...]{foo}

Re: [O] To interrupt org-latex-pdf-process to regexp-replace some string of the .tex intermediate file and continue to export
You first export your org-file to latex. the function I sent assumes the
tex file has the same basename as the org-file, and ends in .tex.
Then, with your org-file as the current buffer, call that function. It will
modify the latex file by replacing your \includegraphics lines with the
equivalent line minus the .png.
then you need to manually build the latex file if you want the pdf.
I am not sure what an ebb file is, or what the difference in latex vs
xelatex is.

You should be able to do C-g to un-freeze the cursor in Emacs, while the code will still be executed in your R session. Try doing C-c C-c to start that block, C-g, and then C-x b to switch to the R1 buffer. You should see that the cursor isn't on a prompt, which means R is busy, yet you're free to move around in your org buffer and keep writing or doing whatever you want, even though the R session is tied up.

Dear Sacha, Ian, and Eric Thanks very much for your replies. Sacha's way is a clever idea and works fine, but I think Eric's patch is the best solution in the long term. Please see attached test file - the patch works perfectly. Although I did have to study the manual carefully to work out how get it to work using the #+call: syntax. The key is to use "inside header arguments". Ian's solution with shebang works when tangling but not for direct evaluation of the source block.

Re: [O] To interrupt org-latex-pdf-process to regexp-replace some string of the .tex intermediate file and continue to export
Dear John，
Thanks very much for your help.
I have tried your code but nothing happened. However, I think it is close
to my remand.
I have some questions about your code:
1. When should this command be called? Don't I need to call it before the
org-latex-pdf-process?
2. I use xelatex to render my .tex files. Because xelatex can not recognize
the boundingbox of both .png and .pdf,
so I need to generate .ebb for them in seperate folders, which are PNG
and PDF folders respectively. so i think
you did not mention them?
I am studying elisp now, but your code is really difficult for me, so can
you help me dig in?
Best regard!

[O] What happened to clocktable in pdf export?
Hi, what happened to the pdf export of clocktables? After the upgrade to Ubuntu 13.10 (emacs 24.3.1), the clocktable export looks ugly as hell. With the latex headers aligne=l|r etc. and the indentation in the clocktable I got a very nice export before. The lines where also indented and I had vertical separators for the columns. Now, in the new version I get "" in the PDF for the indentation (\_) and there are not separator lines between columns. What changed? Is it just configuration or did change completely? Cheers, Matt

This is how I do what I think you are describing. I just take off the
extension, and let (pdf)latex pick the extension it wants.

[O] State of the art in citations
Dear list, I use org-mode to write scientific papers, exporting mostly to LaTex/pdf (and sometimes to Word via ODT when I have to collaborate with less enlightened colleagues). I keep my references in a .bib file, and so far I have been using bibtex in a more or less standard way, using reftex to insert citations in the documents. I am planning in revamping the way I deal with citations, and I was wondering if I can get your opinions in what is the "state of the art" in using citations in org-mode, in particular - Should I use biblatex instead of bibtex? - Are there any contributed packages that I should consider? - What would be the best way to get citations into html or odt? Any comments or tips will be welcomed!

The only place where the function differs from the documentation is at the beginning of a normal line.

Note difference in case (p versus P) and similar for export to latex code alone (l or b) and for opening the PDF automatically (o versus O). For beamer export, by the way, you do not need to specify the latex_class. For version 8.x of org, you no longer need BEAMER_FRAME_LEVEL either. For most of my beamer org documents, all I have in terms of specifications is the following: --8<---cut here---start->8--- #+TITLE: The title of the talk #+AUTHOR:Eric S Fraga #+LaTeX_CLASS_options: [bigger,allowframebreaks] #+OPTIONS: H:2 toc:nil num:nil #+startup: beamer --8<---cut here---end--->8--- followed by the actual content. The startup option is to enable the special key bindings that work on headlines for columns and blocks. Also note that @...@ is no longer the specification for alterted text. Use *...* instead. The example you have was for version 7.x of org. Finally, the documentation for the new exporter, for org v8.x, is here: http://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/beamer/ox-beamer.html The older documentation, written by me initially, is no longer applicable but is there for those people still using org v7.x.

Re: [O] [babel] Setting python interpreter version on per-block or per-subtree basis
Is there an easy way to specify the python version to use for a particular block or sub-tree? My use case is that I have mainly migrated to python 3, but there is still the occasional library that has not been updated yet, so I need to fall back to python 2.7 for some tasks. I can work around the problem by putting the python 2 code in a separate org file and use # Local Variables: # org-babel-python-command: "/path/to/python2" # End: I think you can use shebang for this. It definitely works for tangling files: #+begin_src python :shebang #!/usr/bin/python2 :tangle ./raspberrypi/weather.py :exports none :noweb yes #+end_src

Its definitely one option, but its always said in the manuals that, if possible, one should rather modify the sources than using advices, and since Org-mode is not abandon-ware at all, I thought I ask first how chances are for such modifications. > One other issue is the use of the number of stars to determine outline > level. Since outshine should bring the look&feel of Org-mode to programming language buffers, using other language elements (like e.g. functions) as outline items is not only a technical problem, but a conceptual problem too. In Org-mode, functions are stored in src-blocks, they are not headlines. Thus they should be treated in outshine rather like plain lists or drawers or other elements that change visibility but are no headline. -- cheers, Thorsten

I think outshine (or a true org-minor-mode) definitely has its merits
when its more about "literate PROGRAMMING" rather than "LITERATE
programming".
I definitely liked your idea to use navi-mode regexps as additional
outline elements - they can easily be defined by the users via
customizable vars `navi-key-mappings' and `navi-keywords', cover a wide
range of syntax elements, and would be defined once but used twice
then. The most obvious choice for outlining would be the regexp stored
in :FUN and called with 'f' in navi-mode, e.g. in elisp:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defcustom navi-key-mappings
'(("emacs-lisp" . ((:FUN . "f") ...)))
#+end_src
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defcustom navi-keywords
'(("emacs-lisp" . ((:FUN
. "^[[:space:]]*(def[maus][^elt][a-z]*\\*? ") ...)))
#+end_src
That way somebody could define a set of predefined keyword searches for a
programming language that is included in navi-mode.el (like I did for
Emacs Lisp, PicoLisp, Org-mode and ESS/R) and users could modify it or
add their own regexps and keybindings. Some of these regexps could
then be reused in outshine for visiility cycling and other stuff.
There are many Org features I would really like to have in outshine
too, but I realized that reimplementing Org stuff in outshine
would be kind of an uphill battle in the long run, so I would rather
take what is there (orgstruct, outshine, outorg/poporg, navi) and
merge it into a true org-minor-mode reusing existing Org-mode
functionality.
I have a pretty clear picture what is needed for an org-minor-mode,
and started implementation in

already. But I feel that this should be done together with the Org
maintainers and the Org community, otherwise bad things could happen:
- I write the whole thing (changing Org sources) and the maintainers
say NO to it.
- I write the whole thing (changing Org sources), the maintainers say
NO to it, but I want it anyway and become the unvoluntary maintainer
of an unmaintainable Org fork (nightmare).
- I write the whole thing w/o changing Org sources (if that is
possible), e.g. using advices, the Org people like it and reimplement
it w/o advices, and my effort is wasted.
So I would rather have a clear picture of the 'political situation' wrt
to org-minor-mode and some technical discussion first. But anyway, I
will not have time to work on this again before June.

Re: [O] org-review-schedule
Hi Nicolas, Thanks a lot for these very helpful comments. I'll take them into account. I have a couple questions of my own now.

I guess I should have asked: who decides what goes in contrib? Is this mature/useful enough to be included? If so, I'll edit these as you suggest. >> ;; Example use. >> ;; > > Trailing whitespace.

Indeed. I copied this from org-expiry. Looking at the code for `org-entry-put', I see that it uses `org-with-point' that also uses save-excursion inside. >> (defun org-review-skip () >> "Skip entries that are not scheduled to be reviewed." >> (save-restriction >> (widen) >> (let ((next-headline (save-excursion (or (outline-next-heading) >> (point-max) >> (cond >>((org-review-toreview-p) nil) >>(t next-headline) > > This function doesn't move point (so it skips nothing), is it > expected? It works, so I guess it's not supposed to move the point. It's to be used with `org-agenda-skip-function', which says: ,--- | Function to be called at each match during agenda construction. | If this function returns nil, the current match should not be skipped. | Otherwise, the function must return a position from where the search | should be continued. `--- Thanks again, Alan
