[O] Export dispatcher interface change
Hello, I am used to the export dispatcher offering sections for export to HTML [h] and LaTeX [l]. After having upgraded a number of things on my system (including a small bump of Emacs, but NOT (to my knowledge) org mode), the dispatcher no longer offers the [h] and [l] options ... until I invoke one of the commands via M-x. In other words, M-x org-html-export-to-html causes the [h] section to be available in the dispatcher thereafter. Any ideas what might have caused this change, or what I might do to have the [h] and [l] dispatcher options be available automatically? My versions: (emacs-version) GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.12.2) of 2014-09-08 on binet, modified by Debian (org-version) 8.2 Thanks.

See (info (org) Export back-ends) You can either customize `org-export-backends' or simply (require 'ox-html) in your config. However, both latex and html back-ends are expected to be loaded by default. Thus, there may be something going on with your installation or configuration. Yes, it looks like something fishy is going on: At startup the value of `org-export-backends' is (ascii html icalendar latex) but the dispatcher doesn't show them. (require 'ox-html) is enough to make [h] appear in the dispatcher. (Which is good enough for me for now, given the time I have available to fix it.) Thanks for your suggestion.

[O] Export of inline source blocks
Hi,
When exporting an org file containing the line
,
| Here is some source code: src_c++[:exports code]{int a;} It is inline.
`
the following HTML is generated
,
| Here is some source code: #+BEGINsubSRC/sub c++
| int a;
| #+ENDsubSRC/sub It is inline.
`
which looks approximately like this
,
| Here is some source code: #+BEGINSRC c++ int a; #+ENDSRC It is inline.
`
When rendered, as opposed to the desired
,
| Here is some source code: int a; It is inline.
`
where the 'int a;' would be syntax highlighted, use a proportional font,
etc.
Switching automitic subscripting off with
,
| #+OPTIONS: ^:{}
`
doesn't improve the situation. The generated HTML is now
,
| Here is some source code: #+BEGIN_SRC c++
| int a;
| #+END_SRC It is inline.
`
which has the equally unsatisfactory visual appearance
,
| Here is some source code: #+BEGIN_SRC c++ int a; #+END_SRC It is inline.
`
when rendered.
The experiments were performed with org mode 8.2 on Emacs 24.3.50.1
Could you point out my mistake, please?
Thank you.

Not sure though, how it interacts with Python.
... it interacts with Python in a less than ideal way. In effect, it
pretends you typed the code in the Python source block, into Python's
standard interactive shell. This leads to problems: Imagine that you
want to demonstrate how to write a simple class in Python, and that
you wish to follow Python's style guide, which states that Method
definitions inside a class are separated by a single blank line.
So you present this example code
#+begin_src python :session :results output
class Foo:
def __init__(self, state):
self.state = state
def get(self):
return self.state
#+end_src
in the hope of writing some explanatory notes about it, before
demonstrating its use
#+begin_src python :session :results output
f = Foo('frustrated')
print f.get()
#+end_src
Unfortunately, the plan is foiled because the class definiton in the
first block fails to execute properly. This happens because Python's
standard interactive shell (in contrast to Python's non interactive
mode) understands blank lines to close all currently open blocks. This
results in the =class Foo:= block being closed before any of its
components have been defined, at which point the whole thing goes
pear-shaped.
Currently there are two things you can do to get around this problem.
1. Remove any blank lines which are inside any block in any of your
code (resulting in very ugly and heterodox formatting of your
Python code: not the sort of thing you want to be doing in
tutorials, lectures, documentation, etc.).
2. Hunt down all blank lines which are inside a block, and add enough
whitespace to match the indentation of the next non-whitespace line
in that block (very tedious and very fragile).
Last week I had a short exchange about this, on list, with Eric
Schulte, and seem to have persuaded him that the current state of
affairs is not the desired one.
I am planning to have a look at how the situation can be improved with
the aim of providing a patch, but
1. I have zero time to devote to this in the next few weeks.
2. I have never tinkered with babel's internals before, so I cannot
guarantee success, or quality of output.
In the meantime, I have *slightly* changed my position, since the
exchange with Eric. Last week I claimed that what the session mode
should do is, essentially, emulate Emacs' python-mode's C-c C-c
(execute the code block in the context of the session without choking
on blank lines, and without echoing any of the code itself). I stand
by this being the desired primary behaviour, but I do admit that an
alternative valid (though less important) use case would be to have
the code in the src block be 'typed' into a standard interactive
session, and have the whole session (prompt, input, output) be
produced as the result. (IIRC, this currently doesn't work properly
either: the prompts and the inputs are out of sync, and you get a
horrible mess.)

So are you just looking for something to automate this? It seems that
the generation of the beamer slides themselves are the hard part and,
as you say, it would be pretty easy to tweak the resultant .tex file
to give you handouts. Would that work?
You can add LaTeX class options to org-mode, and so you could export
once for the beamer presentation and then export again with the
handout class option added?
#+latex_class_options: [handout]
which produces:
\documentclass[handout]{beamer}
in the resultant file.
I haven't made handouts before, but this email got me interested. It
seems that all this option does is flatten the transitions and
overlays and whatnot? From there it seems one still needs to do
something to the file to layout the handouts n-up on a page.
So... if you don't have overlays, perhaps you don't need to do
anything to the presentation at all.
Just use a new document to layout the handouts how you want? I also
stumbled upon pdfjam, which looks like it aims to accomplish this step
more easily:
http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/statistics/staff/academic-research/firth/software/pdfjam
They have this example:
---
A useful application of pdfjam is for producing a handout from a file
of presentation slides. For slides made with the standard 4:3 aspect
ratio a nice 6-up handout on A4 paper can be made by
pdfjam --nup 2x3 --frame true --noautoscale false --delta 0.2cm 0.3cm \
--scale 0.95 myslides.pdf --outfile myhandout.pdf
---
Although I (who wrote the followup to the OP) can't speak for Alan
(the OP), it seems that his requirement is different from mine. It
looks like you are addressing Alan's requirement.
Perhaps a few more words to explain what I'm after wouldn't go amiss.
When giving, talks, presentations, lectures, tutorials, etc. I would
like to have sparse slides, whose main purpose is to establish an
order for the talk (remind me what to say next), and to highlight the
key messages. They need to be easily legible from the back of the room
and should not drown the listeners in detail. By this very nature,
they are almost useless as a handout, because their information
content is visible. I want the handout to go into detail: it should
contain pretty much anything that I might say in the talk while any
given slide is being displayed, as well as anticipating any questions
that might be raised in relation to that slide. But the important
thing is that the slides an the handout belong together: they are the
same material, presented in (essentially) the same order, the only
difference being that the slides are a view from 1 ft, while the
handout is the real thing. You might think of the slides as the
highlights of the handout.
I've done this with S5 in the past, where it looks like this:
div class=slide
h1Broad Topic/h1
ul class=incremental
li My first point div class=handout A few additional words/div/li
li My second point
div class=handout
My second point is a really involved one, so here I might
write many paragraphs, explaining it in great detail.
/div
/li
li My third point, which doesn't need any further explanation/li
/ul
div class=handout
Some more stuff, which isn't directly pertinent to any of the
first three specific points, but pertains to the Broad Topic
discussed on this slide. Again, there might be many paragraphs or
even pages here, source code, graphs, bibliography, etc.
/div
/div
Anything belonging to the handout class, will *not* be displayed on
the slides, everything else will appear on the slides.
In summary, what appears on the slides is entirely different from what
appears on the handout, (though the former might be a subset of the
latter), but the contents of both documents should be extracted from
the same flow of information in a single org file.
(Also, I'm not necessarily committed to LaTeX-based export options: I
am approximately equally interested in HTML-based ones too.)
If anybody has any experience with, or ideas about this sort of thing,
I'd love to hear them.
[O] Babel Python sessions severely broken
Hi,
Picking up a few-month-old thread ...
On Tue, 21 Jun 2011 10:26:17 -0700, Eric Schulte wrote:
You are suggesting that code to be run interactively should be written
to an external file then loaded into the interactive session. This
would certainly work around the syntax limitation of the current setup.
My two concerns here are that
1. users who use interactive babel blocks side-by-side with the session
may be used jumping into the session to play with code interactively
and debug, in such cases rather than seeing their code in the session
history they would only see execfile('/tmp/blahblah').
This is (almost) exactly what Emacs' python mode does, so I suspect
that many people who wish to work in this way, would be very familiar
with this state of affairs.
Actually, In modern python modes (Emacs 23, 24, maybe even 22) no clue
about any code having been injected into the session appars at all:
instead of seeing execfile(/'tmp/blah') they see nothing at all. I
think that IPyton's emacs-python-mode, might visually inject the whole
evaluated code into the session buffer.
Note I do recall discussion on list related to user's reading
their session code in the inferior session buffer.
I'd say that that interacting with their code in the session buffer is
more important than reading it there (on the grounds of this being the
usual python-mode workflow), but reading it there could be good too.
2. similarly error messages would now point into this temporary file,
rather than back into the session history
Yes, this is what happens in current python modes, but M-g M-n and M-g
M-p usually manage to send you to the correct place (i.e. your genuine
source file, rather than the temporary file) anyway.
To see this in action:
1. (In Emacs 23 or 24) Create the following buffer
,[ foo.py ]
| print 1
| print 1/0
| print 2
`
2. Ensure that Python mode is enabled for the buffer (Emacs should
have switched it on automatically, by observing the .py extension.)
3. C-c C-z (This should start an inferior Python process, and switch
to its buffer.)
4. Go back to the foo.py buffer
5. C-c C-c (This should evaluate the whole buffer)
The inferior Python buffer should now show something like
,[ *Python* ]
| 1
| Traceback (most recent call last):
| File /tmp/py79095qL, line 2, in module
| print 1/0
| ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero
|
`
6. M-g M-n (This should jump to line 2 in the foo.py buffer)
Maybe some of the stuff that's already in python-mode can be reused ?
Basically you would prefer more decoupling from the interpreter
I would prefer it to be useable for evaluating normally formatted
Python code. In its current state it isn't. That makes it pretty much
unuseable for literal programming, creating documentation, tutorials,
etc.
I don't understand what you mean by more decoupling from the
interpreter. Do you mean overcoming Python's standard REPL's
inability to receive copy-pasted standard Pyton code?. I think that
would be a *very* worthwhile thing to support, which is why pretty
much anything that pretends to support Python interactivity, goes out
of its way to make it possible (Emacs' python-mode, IPython, IDLE are
a few obvious examples that come to mind.)
and I'm not sure for the average user if this would be a worthwhile
exchange simply to be able to avoid syntax errors like your
originally mentioned example (which was the first such post I've
seen on this list).
The current situation essentially makes Python babel sessions unusable
for anything but the most trivial cases. (Or it makes non-trivial use
possible at the cost of presening code in a horribly formatted style,
one which would be a horror to read.)
I'm disinclined to make such a change without a wider base of support
for the request from the Babel/Python user community
Please, please, make it possible to evaluate normal Python code in
Python babel sessions.
It's really important to understand that the restrictions imposed by
Python's plain REPL really are a horrible quirk: I can't imagine
anyone preferring the broken (if standard) behaviour, over correct
behaviour.
Put another way: You won't find many people who take Python
interactivity seriously, using the standard REPL. They all use
something that gets around the horrible restrictions it
imposes. Nobody wants this.
or at least without more complaints about the existing behavior.
Please consider this to be a *vehement* complaint about the existing
behaviour. :-)
(I'd be happy to try to contribute some code to this, but I won't have
any time to think about it for, at least, the next 3 weeks.)

In the HTML version, only one p ... /p pair appears, enclosing everything except the first preamble. (As my real preamble should contain an opening tag which is closed in the postamble, the presence of an unmatched p between the two causes trouble.) Can you shed any light on what is going on? Thanks. (I am using org-mode version 7.7)
[O] Time-proportional agenda view
Hello, When viewing the agenda, I would like to get an immediate visual clue about the time-span of entries. For example, if I have the following items * Boring meeting 2011-06-15 Wed 08:00--2011-06-15 Wed 13:00 * Lunch with mistress 2011-06-15 Wed 13:00--2011-06-15 Wed 14:00 my agenda would (visually) suggest that there is a short Boring meeting, followed by copious free time, followed by a Lunch with mistress of approximately the same length as the Boring meeting. Perhaps something like this 8:00.. 9:00-13:00 Boring Meeting 10:00.. 11:00.. 12:00.. 13:00-14:00 Lunch with mistress Whereas the following gives clearer immediate visual clues about how the time is distributed. 8:00.. 9:00-13:00 Boring Meeting 10:00.. Boring Meeting 11:00.. Boring Meeting 12:00.. Boring Meeting 13:00-14:00 Lunch with mistress In other words, the Boring meeting is scheduled to run *right up to* Lunch with mistress: this is made clear by the latter style, but in the former style I would have to read the time range indicated on the Boring meeting line and work out that it eats up all the time until Lunch with mistress. Is there some way of getting agenda views to look more like the latter example? Is there some pretty agenda view export functionality that gives better geometric reflection of the time spans of entries? (I suspect that overlapping entries would get very messy when represented by text, but could be dealt with elegantly in a more graphical medium.) Thank you.
