I don't know what I was up to.

The manual says:

[O] easy way to open include files

[Yasushi SHOJI]

Hi,

Is there any function / key bindings to open a included file?

Let's say we have a.org which has:

* headline

#+INCLUDE: |b.org

and we are at "|", which indicates a cursor position.
How can I easily open "b.org"?

I'm pretty sure your patch would break those binding in terminal Emacs
completely, since 
cannot be typed in the terminal and Emacs does not remap these bindings.

Furthermore, I cannot reproduce your issue on Org mode version 9.1.6
(9.1.6-33-g5b4a71-elpaplus)

C-h C-k M-S-

 runs the command org-insert-todo-heading (found in
org-mode-map), which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in
‘org.el’.

It is bound to .

(org-insert-todo-heading ARG  FORCE-HEADING)

I missed that. 

Further, `org-export-file-name' gets called before `org-export-as' so there is 
no hope of using export hooks or filters or other gambits like that.

I don't see a clean way to do date stamp the file name without writing your own 
export-to-file function that handles date-stamping the file arg sent to 
`org-export-to-file' or replacing/advicing `org-export-file-name' to do that.

thanks, I will check it out. I have to say it takes quite some time to
get a presentation that looks as good as the beamer based presentation I
use as an example.

The current issue I have is this. I have a structure like this:

* foo
** foo1
** foo2

Basically foo acts as a container for the content. I want foo to appear
in the table of contents and I want two slides, foo1 and foo2, and none
for foo. I'm nearly there, but I don't know how to suppress the
generation of a slide for foo.

I could use this structure:

* foo1
* foo2

But I miss the container that groups the content for me, the presenter.
And what is more important, I don't know how to get foo into the TOC (in
a nice way).

Or I could use:

* foo1
** foo2

Which seems to have even more issues: the content of foo2 is on the same
level as the content of foo1, it's not sub-content. The headers of the
slides have different sizes then, etc.

That works for EXPORT_TITLE!

So I tried for EXPORT_FILE_NAME, but it doesn't work there, because
org-export-output-file-name should be getting called internally *before*
the macro expansion is done.

Use an `eval' macro.

In a more recent version than you use, this works:

* abc
  :PROPERTIES:
  :EXPORT_TITLE: {{{etitle(my title)}}}
  :END:


#+macro: etitle (eval (concat (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d") " " $1))

...

You might need to quote the `$1'. The quoting convention was changed recently.

HTH,

Yes, you cannot do that (How would Org know that you do not want to name
your file literally like that? :)).

Also you do not need to (should not?) provide the file extension there..
the correct extension is added based on the exporter you use.

That said, I quickly tested this out, and it works:

(defun modi/org-advice-prefix-export-file-name-with-date (orig-fun 
args)
  "Prefix the output file name with current date."
  (let* ((date-format "%Y-%m-%d")   ;Customize this variable as you like
 (date-file-separator "-")  ;Customize this variable as you like
 (orig-output-file-name (apply orig-fun args))
 (orig-output-dir (file-name-directory orig-output-file-name))
 (orig-output-just-file-name (file-name-nondirectory
orig-output-file-name))
 (date (format-time-string date-format (current-time
(concat orig-output-dir date date-file-separator
orig-output-just-file-name)))
(advice-add 'org-export-output-file-name :around
#'modi/org-advice-prefix-export-file-name-with-date)
;; (advice-remove 'org-export-output-file-name
#'modi/org-advice-prefix-export-file-name-with-date)


After evaluating the above, current date will be prefixed to the exported
file name, whether you export the whole file or just a subtree.

You could either use "file+function" or "function" and write a function to
find location or file/buffer and location, respectively.  See the
‘org-capture-templates’ docstring.

 (file+function "path/to/file" function-finding-location)
 A function to find the right location in the file

 (function function-finding-location)
Most general way: write your own function which both visits
the file and moves point to the right location

Functions take no arguments and in the case of file+function, the function
is run from the file buffer.

Example:

(file+function "~/doc.org"
   (lambda ()
 (org-goto-local-search-headings
  (ido-completing-read
   "File note to: "
   (org-element-map
   (org-element-parse-buffer)
   'headline
 (lambda (hl)
   (and (= (org-element-property :level hl) 1)
(org-element-property :title hl)
  nil nil)
 (forward-line 1))
 :prepend t
 :empty-lines-after 1)


Hope it helps,
Rasmus

[O] :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: containing a date-stamp

[Karl Voit]

Hi,

Is there a possibility to define an export file name of a heading so
that the resulting file contains a date-stamp?

What I want to achieve:

*** My Report
:PROPERTIES:
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d") Project Status.html
:END:

... which results in the file: "2018-02-07 Project Status.html"

No, this does not work this way at the moment (Orgmode from git
maint, d3f7309cb from 9 weeks ago).
