Nice!  Thanks.
 
‘$’Fields in this row can define parameters for formulas. For
example, if a field in a ‘$’ row contains ‘max=50’, then formulas in
this table can refer to the value 50 using ‘$max’. Parameters work
exactly like constants, only that they can be defined on a per-table
basis.

Re: Trouble producing nicely aligned org tables from emacs-jupyter code blocks using latest org version

[Mark Barton]

Richard,

You might want to check to see if pulsar is a good replacement for beacon. I 
had been using beacon for a while and switched recently. I don’t use 
Jupiter-python blocks any more because of some compatibility issues I 
experienced because I chose to compile Emacs from the master branch. I found 
the python blocks met my needs. He is the link to the pulsar package if you are 
interested. I found it much easier to config what actions cause the line to 
pulse to find point.

Re: Trouble producing nicely aligned org tables from emacs-jupyter code blocks using latest org version

[Richard H. Stanton]

Here’s a simple init.el that shows the problem (most of it is just boilerplate 
code to use straight.el to manage packages, and you may need to edit the python 
executable path).

---

;;; straight
(defvar bootstrap-version)
(let ((bootstrap-file
   (expand-file-name "straight/repos/straight.el/bootstrap.el" 
user-emacs-directory))
  (bootstrap-version 5))
  (unless (file-exists-p bootstrap-file)
(with-current-buffer
(url-retrieve-synchronously
 
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raxod502/straight.el/develop/install.el;
 'silent 'inhibit-cookies)
  (goto-char (point-max))
  (eval-print-last-sexp)))
  (load bootstrap-file nil 'nomessage))

;;  Replace use-package with straight-use-package
(straight-use-package 'use-package)
(setq straight-use-package-by-default t)
(setq use-package-verbose t)
(straight-use-package 'use-package-ensure-system-package)


;;; Which org-mode to use?

; (straight-use-package '(org :type git :repo 
"https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode.git;))
(straight-use-package '(org :type built-in))

;;; Find python executable
(setq exec-path (append '("/Users/stanton/anaconda3/bin") exec-path))

(use-package org
  :after (jupyter)
  :straight t
  :config
  (org-babel-do-load-languages
   'org-babel-load-languages
   '((python . t)
 (jupyter . t

(use-package jupyter)

;; Make cursor more visible when you move a long distance
(use-package beacon :config (beacon-mode 1))

——

Now execute the following source block and you’ll see the misaligned table.

#+begin_src jupyter-python :async yes :session py
[['aaa', 'a'], None, ['b', 'b']]
#+end_src

Commenting out the last line of init.el, thus not loading the beacon package, 
gets things to work OK. But so does changing which version of org mode is 
loaded by commenting out one of the lines and uncommenting the other, so this 
is not only about the beacon package.

Best,

Richard

After a lot of bisecting my init.el to create the simplest possible example 
that shows the problem, I found that removing the package beacon makes 
everything work OK, both in sync and async mode.

Smartphones are the opium of the 21st century... And worst of all, they
will become the new identity cards. For example, until recently I could
do transactions with my bank through its website. But now it is
mandatory to have a smartphone and download an application, of course
proprietary.

Anyway, termux and Emacs, without a physical keyboard, is torture. I
usually connect a compact mechanical keyboard that I have for my laptop.

By the way, I've noticed how easy it is to write Elisp functions that
call Termux commands from Emacs. I recently wrote this to send SMS (you
can enter the phone number directly or choose a contact saved in BBDB
data base, if you use BBDB). To see the list of contacts it works better
if you use also some completion framework like ivy or helm:

(defun send-sms ()
  (interactive)
  (save-window-excursion (bbdb ".+"))
  (let* ((tlf (if (yes-or-no-p "Enter a contact: ")
  (let ((record (bbdb-get-records "Contact: ")))
(aref
 (car (aref (car record) 5)) 1))
(read-from-minibuffer "Phone number: ")))
 (sms (read-from-minibuffer "Texto del SMS: "))
 (cmd (format "termux-sms-send -n %s %s" tlf sms)))
(call-process-shell-command cmd)))

Re: Org Yaap: Termux notifications for Org

[Christian Stuermer]

Hello Tyler,

thank you for sharing, I will try it out!

I'm currently trying to shift more and more from specialized apps on 
every OS to Emacs, but it's a slow process. So I'm happy for every help 
I can get. My next projects will be switching to Gnus as mailclient, 
elfeed + Emms (+ perhaps Tasker as GUI on Android) for podcasts,...


If anyone knows a good place to discuss Emacs in Termux online, please 
let me know. This combination of interests seems to be so rare, my 
questions about it feel like noise in both the Emacs and Termux subreddits.


Best,
Christian

Gaa!  I missed the functionality of C-c ' when the overlay is in place.
And by customizing org-src-ask-before-returning-to-edit-buffer the
confusing (at least for me) question goes away.

I think C-c ' is the natural binding.  No need for another one AFAICT.

I'll revert the changes.  Sorry for the fuss.
