Re: [O] LaTeX export with section number, name and page in internal links

[Ilya Filippov]

Thank you, it is work, but I hope to use something like (setq org-export-latex-hyperref-format "\\ref{%s}") for hyperref customization. (I want join \\ref{%s} and \\pageref{%s} for org-export-latex-hyperref-format). If it will be work we may simple use [[#section-1]] to different templates for internal references, also like ''Section 1.1 [Section name], page 99''.03.12.2015, 16:31, "John Kitchin" :Try this.* Chapter 1** Section 1.1  \label{manual-section-1}    :PROPERTIES:    :CUSTOM_ID: section-1    :END:* Chapter 2** Section 2.1I want reference to Section 1.1 from here (See Section \ref{manual-section-1} on page \pageref{manual-section-1})John---Professor John Kitchin Doherty Hall A207FDepartment of Chemical EngineeringCarnegie Mellon UniversityPittsburgh, PA 15213412-268-7803@johnkitchinhttp://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu

[O] [PATCH] org-table.el: Fix regexp used for splitting data rows when computing a formula

[Piotr Gajewski]

* lisp/org-table.el (org-table-eval-formula): Fix regexp
  used for splitting data rows.

* Explanation /root node/

*** Example 1: Spaces ' ' in front of a data row (OK)

    |---+-+--+---++-|
    | ! | sum |  | a |  b |   c |
    |---+-+--+---++-|
    | # | 111 | 1000 | 1 | 10 | 100 |
    |---+-+--+---++-|
    #+TBLFM: $2=$a+$b+$c

    List of values after splitting data row:
    ("#" "" "1000" "1" "10" "100")

    Formula is computed correctly.

*** Example 2: Tabulators '\t' in front of a data row (ERROR)

    |---+--+--+---++-|
    | ! |  sum |  | a |  b |   c |
    |---+--+--+---++-|
    | # | 1011 | 1000 | 1 | 10 | 100 |
    |---+--+--+---++-|
    #+TBLFM: $2=$a+$b+$c

    List of values after splitting data row:
    ("\t" "#" "" "1000" "1" "10" "100")

    There is an extra field containing '\t' character(s).
    All /genuine/ values are shifted to the right.
    Consequently, references to fields lookup the wrong values.

[O] footnote fontify causing massive slowdown

[Derek Feichtinger]

While diagnosing a server condition, I was listing parts of a system log
via a babel expression. The 130 lines in the babel output are wrapped in
an example block. This block caused massive slowdown of scrolling and
other operations.

Using the emacs profiler I see:

- redisplay_internal (C function) 8232  88%
 - jit-lock-function 8226  88%
  - jit-lock-fontify-now 8226  88%
   - funcall 8226  88%
- #  8226  88%
 - run-hook-with-args 8226  88%
  - font-lock-fontify-region 8226  88%
   - font-lock-default-fontify-region 8226  88%
- font-lock-fontify-keywords-region 8226  88%
 - org-activate-footnote-links 8158  87%
  - org-footnote-next-reference-or-definition 8158  87%
   - byte-code 8158  87%
- org-footnote-at-reference-p 4114  44%
 - org-footnote-in-valid-context-p 4106  44%
  + org-inside-LaTeX-fragment-p 2380  25%
  + org-in-block-p 1563  16%
  + org-in-verbatim-emphasis 159   1%
org-at-comment-p 4   0%

Checking for footnote pattern matches (org-footnote-re) in the wrapped 
block, I see that

every line matches based on the very simple and trivial pattern of
number enclosed in angular brackets, so all the process numbers
following the "sshd" in these lines like "sshd[1234]" do match and cause 
load.

#

Since this kind of pattern is so common in logs and 130 lines are really 
not a large number, it makes it hard to use

org for this purpose. Can this be turned off selectively, or can it be
prevented in example blocks?

[O] Base 64 inline images in html export

[Greg Sexton]

Hi,

I did find a post about this from around 2009 but I'm not sure it went
anywhere. It's very useful for me to be able to export a single html
file that I can distribute around. Base 64 encoding images directly in
to the exported html makes this possible.

The feature seems fairly well supported by browsers these days.[1]

I've hacked up this ugly proof of concept. I guess it wouldn't take too
much to productionize this and make the behavior configurable. Any
thoughts?

--8<---cut here---start->8---
(defun gs/b64-img (file-uri)
  (let ((file (s-replace "file://" "" file-uri)))
(if (f-exists? file)

(s-concat "data:image/"
  (f-ext file)
  ";base64,"
  (base64-encode-string (f-read-bytes file)))
  file-uri)))

[O] Bug: problems with named fields on Org spreadsheet [8.3.2 (release_8.3.2-338-g522ec9 @ /home/luke/.emacs.d/el-get/org-mode/lisp/)]

[Lukasz Wiechec]

Hi,



I just have updated from previous version of Org to the latest (from

git) and my timesheet table stopped working. After looking closer,

even the example sheet from the Org mode's info pages does not work.



Here's the table (from the info pages):



 |---+-++++---+--|

 |   | Student | Prob 1 | Prob 2 | Prob 3 | Total | Note |

 |---+-++++---+--|

 | ! | | P1 | P2 | P3 |   Tot |  |

 | # | Maximum | 10 | 15 | 25 |50 | 10.0 |

 | ^ | | m1 | m2 | m3 |mt |  |

 |---+-++++---+--|

 | # | Peter   | 10 |  8 | 23 |41 |  8.2 |

 | # | Sam |  2 |  4 |  3 | 9 |  1.8 |

 |---+-++++---+--|

 | # | Average |||| 0 |  0.0 |

 | ^ | ||||at |  |

 | $ | max=50  ||||   |  |

 |---+-++++---+--|

 #+TBLFM: $6=vsum($P1..$P3)::$7=10*$Tot/$max;%.1f::$at=vmean(@-II..@-I);%.1f



When I try to re-apply the formulas (C-c C-c), I am getting a message



'Invalid table range specifier $at'.





Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and

what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See



 http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback



Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.

[O] LaTeX export with section number, name and page in internal links

I export my Org-Mode notes with internal links to LaTeX and I want it to look 
like this ''Section 1.1 [Section name], page 99'' (Like in the Org Manual). I 
use this construction:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
 * Chapter 1

:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: section-1
:END:
 * Chapter 2
 ** Section 2.1
I want reference to Section 1.1 from here (See #section-1)
#+END_EXAMPLE

But as a result I get only the number of the section ''1.1'', not the ''Section 
1.1 [Section name], page 99''. 
What options I need to use?

[O] org-ellipsis problem

[Dan Griswold]

 Hi all,

Setting org-ellipsis (either via setq or customize) has no effect for me.
Org buffers still show three dots at the end of folded lines instead of the
character I give to org-ellipsis. Even restarting emacs
does not give the intended result.

Any suggestions?

Interesting. I guess these are not standard for all processors? It also
looks like it would be hard to get something like an inline reference
formatted as [1] but refer to Reference 1, e.g. from citenum. It is
possible to have (Kitchin 2007) and (2007) but not a citation reference
to Kitchin that is derived from e.g. a citeauthor command in LaTeX. I am
not raising any objections here, just getting a sense for what is
feasible.

[O] Add time (duration) to timestamp

[Jarmo Hurri]

Greetings.

Is there a way to add time to a timestamp, say, in a table?

For example, say I have a series of events, each lasting 15 minutes,
starting at a specified time on a specific day. I want to create a table
of them as follows:

| time   | event |
|+---|
| <2015-12-07 Mon 12:00> | A |
| add 15 minutes to above| B |
| again, add 15 min to above | C |

Is there a way to automate the generation of the timestamps of events B
and C?

I make a fairly standard, non-sophisticated, usage of MobileOrg. I set it
to update the entries in the built-in Google Calendar: I find Google
Calendar easier to read than what is provided by MobileOrg. I sync the
Mobile org directory between computer(s) and tablet(s)/phone using
syncthing (https://syncthing.net/), which requires that at least two
devices be up (but I have a server that is supposed to be up all the time,
so no problem here ---having a tablet and a phone, a tablet and a laptop,
etc, would also do).

So the computer -> tablet way works just fine. The other way around is
slightly more cumbersome (I capture in the tablet and then, in the
computer, process the flagged.org file created by MobileOrg --- this has
been discussed in this list before, and other people have much more
sophisticated procedures here).

Contacts I do not worry about (I rarely do email on a tablet/phone).

A few years ago I tried using emacs for android, etc, in the tablet, but I
eventually gave up using it since it was too cumbersome for me. MobileOrg
covers my needs pretty well.


Note, however, that you can install Debian (or several other Linuxes)
relatively easily in rooted Android devices and maybe even in non-rooted
devices. There are two or three apps available; I use "Complete Linux
Installer", and you should be able to get X in there, etc (I use it without
X), so you might do Emacs and even start it from a shortcut in a desktop
linux environment running inside your Android. But I haven't tried it (and
it seems to me it'd probably not be the smoothest and most efficient
experience).

I do exactly the same thing, also with radicale running in a chrooted
debian in my android phone. I am not happy with this solution since it
is not bidirectional but I agree it is the easiest method as far as I am
concerned.

Re: [O] More questions about CSL and org-mode

[John Kitchin]

Thanks.

Its an interesting jam. You want to have multiple outputs as a
possibility, but there isn't a robust markup that readily works across
all backends.

What about this. For now consider a bibliography database with
org-formatting in the entries, e.g. subscripts, superscripts, etc...
(but not like putting italics on titles or anything related to
bibliography formatting). So I can have a title like "The role of H_{2}O
in /d/-orbital splitting of \alpha particles" in an entry. I assume it
would also be ok to have utf-8 characters in it. Equations are still
problematic, as we use LaTeX syntax for those.

On export the in-text citations are transformed to unique text blobs,
e.g. uuids, and the document exported. The only important features of
these blobs is that they do not get changed on export, and they are
unique because we replace them later.

The strings in the bibliography entry are "exported" to convert the
org-markup to the output format. The in-text citations, expanded
bibliography and style are sent to the citation processor, which outputs
replacements and a formatted bibliography in the desired output format.

Finally, you replace each uuid with the appropriate replacement, and
insert the bibliography where it belongs. That should be the final
document.

If you did this with a bibtex file, it would probably break its use in
LaTeX without some clever transformation of the bibtex file to a new
file that was LaTeX formatted, and an on the fly change to the org
buffer to use this new file. But, since the point of this is for
non-LaTeX export, I guess this is ok.

I bet you could even expand the bibtex format to include journal
abbreviations, and directly use the fields that CSL uses (although I
strongly dislike "container-title" for the journal name!)

The downside is the processor now needs to output different formats, but
presumably there are a few standard ones that are a one-time investment
like html.

The Pandora is indeed slow when compared with some of my other systems
and, to make matters even more extreme, I only have the 600 MHz rebirth
edition, overclocked to 800 MHz.

I do alter my working approach when using it but I do so not only
because of the speed but also because of the keyboard and the
display.  It is very much not a desktop or laptop replacement.  For me,
it's about data at hand anywhere/everywhere and for taking notes and
processing emails.  Oh, and listening to music :-)

The only concession, with respect to org, that I make is to use sticky
agenda views to avoid the long delay in generating each view.

The Pyra will help, being significantly faster, but the screen and
keyboard will still be small so I doubt my use will change dramatically.

Is org-publish-find-title an internal function? If so, expecting the
user to be responsible for initializing the cache is acceptable.

But, is there some "external function" to find the title of an org file?
I couldn't find any, and hence resorted to using org-publish-find-title.

How about initializing the cache before the execution of the preparation
function? I am calling org-publish-find-title in the preparation
function, and this would address my use case. If you think this is a
good idea, I can come up with a patch.

Else, we can close this issue. It's not really a major problem.

Well, there is hope for Android users, too:

I bought an used ASUS TF 101 (but any such android tablet should do)
especially to try out various ways to install a real Linux on this
class of machines.

With linuxdeploy I was able to install a complete Linux (TeX, R, emacs,
git, rsync ...) on a *rooted* machine. Using a VNC viewer (bvnc in my
case) I get a complete graphical environment. emacs works nicely in the
terminal emulater session, too. Linux runs besides Android in a chroot
and I`m quite happy with this setup. 

On another *unrooted* machine (Galaxy Note something) I use gnuroot.
Only got it working without X11, but did not try too hard, because
solution 1 was working fine. According to the docs I´m just too stupid
to get a local X11-server working.

Both machines have physical keyboards attached, but in tablet mode
using HackersKeyboard emacs is usable, but obviously a keyboard is a
Good Thing(tm) for emacs users.

May be that helps someone

[O] Problems with capture

[Thomas Holst]

Hello org-moders,

I have a little trouble with capture. First here is the setup for one of
my capture templates:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-capture-templates
  '(
;; ...
("hr" "Rechnung erfassen" table-line (file+function 
"~/git/org-priv/Univ_Beih.org" th:capure-find-open-vers-regn)
 "| # | %^u | %^{Arzt/Apotheke} | %^{für wen|Lida|Oleg|Victor|Simon} | 
%^{Betrag} | %^u | | | |"
 :table-line-pos "III-1" :immediate-finish t)
;; ...
))
#+end_src

What this template shall achive:

- look if there is an entry (headline) with todo state OPEN
- if entry exists append a table line
- if entry does not exist, create a new headline, insert table structure
  and append line to newly created table.

The function `th:capture-find-open-vers-regn' does this. Creating works
fine, but a get an error:

  Error running timer `org-element--cache-sync': (error "Invalid search bound 
(wrong side of point)")

and:

  condition-case: Capture template `hr': Invalid table line specification "III-1

I use something like:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(org-element-map (org-element-parse-buffer) 'headline
   (lambda (hl)
 (and
  (string= "Rechnungen" (car (org-element-property :title hl)))
  (= 1 (org-element-property :level hl))
  (org-element-property :begin hl)))
   nil t)
#+end_src

To find the Position in the file and regular

: (insert "a huge string")

To insert new heading and table structure. The new structure is created,
but something breaks caching. How can I insert the new structure without
breaking caching?

Thanks for any pointers.

IIUC, the problem with this approach is that it will not work well when
the citation style is note-based rather than inline.  The main
motivation for going "back to Org" is that note-based styles require the
document structure to change as a result of citation processing: new
footnotes have to be inserted, and existing ones have to be renumbered.
That is relatively hard to do if the rest of the document is already in
the target format (except with LaTeX).  By doing citation processing
early in the export process and converting the results to Org, we can
rely on Org's footnote processing to handle this later in the export
process.

As far as I can see, if it weren't for note-based styles, this approach
would work fine.  (Indeed, it is pretty much what the existing org-cite
code does, except that the mapping between citations and their
replacements is done with Lisp data structures rather than via string
replacement in the output buffer.  I stopped work on that right about
the time I realized the existing approach wouldn't work very well with
note-based styles.)

But given the problem about nested formatting, going back to Org at the
level of text replacements doesn't work.  In other words: both of the
simple-minded approaches (process citations directly to text in the
target format, or process them to Org text, then let Org convert them to
the target format) face problems.

I think probably what we'll have to do to accommodate both note-based
styles and the possibility of nested formatting is to get the results of
citation processing in some unambiguous format like HTML or JSON, then
parse it, and then use the result to directly modify the parse tree for
the Org document before continuing the export process.  I can't see an
easier way...can anyone else?

Best,
Richard

This is a good list to discuss improvements to ob-python.

The authors of Babel in Org mode no longer participate in its
development and AFAICT no one has taken over this responsibility.
Instead, there have been changes to one language or another as issues
arise.

I do know that the Babel authors found ob-python difficult to write and
that problems with it have been identified from time to time on this
list.  My sense is that it could be improved, though I don't use it
often enough myself to know.

At any rate, perhaps you could propose a patch and tests?  If the patch
breaks something, then you'll certainly find users interested in
discussing ob-python :)

All the best,
Tom

The best way to contribute to improving ob-python is by showing a patch
that implements your ideas and still passes all existing tests.  Bonus
points if you add new tests for better coverage or any new functionality
or improvements.

[O] Embedding and extracting license/author information in an image file

[Julien Cubizolles]

I often include images in my org documents and would like to properly
cite the license, and/or author. I was thinking that this could be
simplified by:

* embedding the license/author information in some metadata of the jpg
  or png file (it seems that some standard called xmp can be used to
  embed data in png/jpg [fn:1]) preferably using some emacs tool

* getting org to add a footnote with this information when linking to a
  file with this kind of information.

Could it be done ? Do you know of an emacs package providing read/write
access to this metadata ?

I confirm that you *did* fix my first problem. Simple, neat, and smart.
Thanks a lot!

Any idea how to solve my problem #2: get the computed amount in bold
and/or in another color and/or in bigger font?

Best regards,
Fabrice

You could probably use exiftool with org-babel or dynamic blocks to
extract the required data and generated the syntax you want.

Hope it helps,

Cf. the manual you can use printf syntax,

 
http://orgmode.org/manual/Formula-syntax-for-Calc.html#Formula-syntax-for-Calc

Thus,

| /Sub-total/  |   6600.00 | \EUR   |

Hope this was what you were after.

On second thought, your suggestion for always unhexifying makes the
calls from the other handlers simpler, so I've attached a corrected patch.
(In fact, my previous implementation forgot to unhexify something!

You need to specify the header and eliminate the empty line before the
source code block.

#+header: :tangle yes
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (setq-default fill-column 79)
#+END_SRC

Or, put the header argument with the source code block.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :tangle yes

#+END_SRC

How about this approach? If it's new-style, we pass the new-style
property list as the only parameter to the org-protocol function. Since
the standard org-protocol handlers have been updated to deal with
property lists, they should cover maybe 95% of use cases. I've changed
the condition-case to a more general error handler, so anyone with
custom functions (who presumably uses old-style links too) will get the
old-style behaviour and a warning.

I have no idea either. I've simplified the changelog message, though.

Beats me, but the previous implementation made it a separate parameter
for org-protocol-split-data, so I figured I'd carry it upwards into this
new wrapper function. The previous implementation of
org-protocol-open-source unhexified after parsing the parameters instead
of passing the unhexify parameter to org-protocol-split-data directly.
I'm not sure if anyone's relying on the nuances of that, so I left it
roughly the same.

Now that I've changed handler functions to use only one parameter, they
don't get the raw strings unless they're greedy handler functions or
they use old-style links... Hmm.

Same notes as for hexify. Probably okay either way, but I don't know
enough about who else uses this code to say. =) I can change it if you'd
like to make that decision.

I've fixed your ECM:

1. moved attr_latex and other latex stuff to before the names of the
tables and
2. inverted the order of vsum and remote so that you do a vsum over what
the remote function returns.

Seems to work.  See attached.
