Re: [O] (org-agenda-to-appt) with sexp org-diary-class entry?
Thanks, Marco. Well, it at least helps to update me to a non-obsolete sexp method. I have no idea how to check what's actually been pushed to `appt` to see whether the updated org-class really behaves differently to org-diary-class in this respect. (So I'll have to see tomorrow how `appt` behaves.) ~ Dr Benjamin Slade pgp fingerprint: 21BA 2AE1 28F6 DF36 110A 0E9C A320 BBE8 2B52 EE19 ~ {sent by mu4e on Emacs running under GNU/Linux} (Choose Linux, Choose Freedom)
[O] (org-agenda-to-appt) with sexp org-diary-class entry?
None of my events which are scheduled with org-diary-class sexp entries seem to get pushed with (org-agenda-to-appt) (for triggering alarms etc.). Is this simply a limitation of sexp org-diary-class? Is there are workaround, or would it be better to simply schedule such events as (infinitely) repeating?
[O] timezone in org-mode events?
As far as I can tell, org-mode (at least out-of-the-box) doesn't seem to support any sort of timezone information in events (deadlines etc.). There are certainly events for which it would be useful to establish the absolute time (e.g. for conference abstract submission deadlines) either in terms of timezone abbreviations or UTC+/-N format. Is this sort of feature enableable as an option somewhere in org-mode? ~ Dr Benjamin Slade pgp fingerprint: 21BA 2AE1 28F6 DF36 110A 0E9C A320 BBE8 2B52 EE19 ~ {sent by mu4e on Emacs running under GNU/Linux} (Choose Linux, Choose Freedom)

[O] new(ish) behaviour wrt to {s }s
At some point orgmode has started escaping {s and }s which I don't want to be escaped on conversion to LaTeX. For example when I put in orgmode \textsubscript{some subscript}, I get out in the .tex file \textsubscript\{some subsubscript}. Likewise with a user-defined function like \Bracketed{...}.

[O] Aligned glosses in orgmode (for export to odt/doc)
I'm contemplating writing a linguistics article in orgmode because I know I will need to provide a doc(x) file (normally I would otherwise use LaTeX). One of things I will need to be able to is produce numbered examples with aligned interlinear glosses (like these: http://www.eva.mpg.de/lingua/resources/glossing-rules.php ). It's been a while since I've done this in a doc(x)-ish format, but the obvious ways would be (1) to do something with tab alignment or (2) use borderless/invisible tables. Can anyone suggest how this (or some other solution to producing interlinear glosses) might be implemented in an orgmode-odt/doc/docx setup? One potential solution would be an orgmode setup which produces borderless tables with an optimal width column setting. I don't know how to do this in orgmode though (or if it can be done currently). ~ Dr Benjamin Slade Dept. of Linguistics, Uni. of Utah pgp fingerprint: 21BA 2AE1 28F6 DF36 110A 0E9C A320 BBE8 2B52 EE19 ~ {sent by mu4e on Emacs running under GNU/Linux} (Choose Linux, Choose Freedom)

The agent is not intrusive at all, assuming you have a large enough display and works particularly well if you use a display in portrait orientation, as I do for writing.

No, I tend to avoid doing such. This really is the worst place to think of... because your .emacs file is personal. Then, you cannot (easily) share any of your custom with anybody... I have a bunch of packages that I would need for my beamer presentations and it would be nice just to have them automatically included every time. If you want to do so, either put your list of packages - in an Org file that you #+INCLUDE as needed, or - in your own theme (that's what I generally end up doing). Both are better places, IMHO, for customs. Best regards, Seb
Re: [O] orgmode/beamer - won't export blocks
Thank you for the help. Yes, removing the configuration code from .emacs results in the correct behaviour (i.e. blocks are now exported properly). Quick question -- is there still a way of setting up beamer/orgmode configuration in .emacs? thanks, --Ben On 27 May 2011 02:01, Eric S Fraga e.fr...@ucl.ac.uk wrote: Benjamin Slade sl...@jnanam.net writes: Thanks, Sebastien and Eric.

Thanks for the example. More importantly, thanks for the snippet of configuration code. The problem, I believe, lies there as your simple file works just fine for me (assuming you have oddeven levels being used; it doesn't work if you have odd only). I would suggest that you no longer need (or want) to customise the org-export-latex-classes variable for beamer. Try removing that customisation, restart emacs and see what happens?

[O] orgmode/beamer - won't export blocks
I'm having the same trouble which seems to be reported in this thread (I'm not running Aquamacs though, just GNU Emacs under Linux, with orgmode v7.4): http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg28752.html I've followed tutorials, and orgmode isn't generating beamer \block structures (I checked the LaTeX code generated: it is generating \itemize rather than \block). Did anyone ever figure out the reason for this? - [Orgmode] Baffled by beamer blocks Philip J. Hollenback Tue, 17 Aug 2010 08:31:43 -0700 I've got a basic org-mode 7.01g + beamer setup working and am able to create and export presentations. However I am completely unable to create presentations with blocks in them. I've followed the examples on the website such as http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-beamer.php with no success. When I try to write a presentation with blocks, I find that instead of blocks I end up with nested lists in the frames. The LaTeX output shows no \block structures. I see no error messages in any of my emacs buffers. I should note that I'm running Aquamacs 1.9 on the mac. Can anyone suggest what in my setup might be preventing blocks from working? I'm really baffled at this point. Thanks, P. -- Philip J. Hollenback phil...@pobox.com www.hollenback.net

It might also be worthwhile updating your version to org to the most recent stable release (7.5), if you can. In any case, I would suggest you look at the configuration options in your org file, specifically #+BEAMER_FRAME_LEVEL and the H: #+OPTIONS setting.
