[Orgmode] Backslash in a table breaks export to Docbook
I have a variety of org docs that tend to get infected with latex over
time. Occasionally I'll export them to other formats, with different
kinds of cleanup. Along the way I noticed this... Create the following
doc:
* Change History
| \rowcolor[gray]{.8}Updated By | Date | Changes Made |
|---+--+--|
| / |||
| Check | Nov 18, 2010 | Test |
Export to docbook via C-c C-e D
Get Invalid use of '\' in replacement text
The above is the minimum set to reproduce it - obviously the first doc
had all the relevant latex includes to make rowcolor[gray] actually work

[Orgmode] Re: org-babel-gnuplot broken today?
Thanks all - problem gone over here too! (Tested in a few other permutations on the original convoluted doc that I hit the error in). Btw on the latest pull I get an error on the make doc part (cd doc; makeinfo --html --number-sections --no-split -o org.html org.texi) org.texi:1330: Unknown command `Vindex'. makeinfo: Removing output file `org.html' due to errors; use --force to preserve. *** Error code 1 Stop in /home/nigel/Installation/org-mode (line 245 of Makefile). I'll move to another post if its unrelated to this commit; just thought that if it was introduced somehow in this fix, perhaps its easiest to address here. Thanks again!

[Orgmode] org-babel-gnuplot broken today?
I refreshed today 7.01trans and noticed I couldn't get my gnuplots to plot anymore: data from a table within the org file is no longer digested nicely by gnuplot.

[Orgmode] Re: org-babel-gnuplot broken today?
John - thanks for the quick reply (and, btw, the very useful tutorial). I ought to have noted that the example works fine when invoked directly from the command line, with the only change being that I move the data into a file (mainly because I don't know the correct gnuplot syntax for putting table data into a variable!). I haven't updated gnuplot since installing it, so I believe the org-mode - gnuplot unfriendliness lies in some effect that a recent pull of 7.01trans has had. (I did updated emacs-w3m from cvs the other day, so I suppose thats another possible source of error, but it seems unlikely). I agree that it appears that the table data being handed to gnuplot from org-mode is somehow being formatted in a way that gnuplot does not understand.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: org-babel-gnuplot broken today?
Eric - thanks. I'm using 4.4 as well. Up until today, the gnuplot code blocks using data from org-mode tables worked fine. As of today, the data from the org-mode tables appears to come through to gnuplot in a format that gnuplot cannot understand. I guessing thats why gnuplot is complaining that data, the variable containing the data from the org-mode table, is a bad file. Running the aforementioned example from the worg, the *gnuplot* output is gnuplot data = ((0.1 0.425 0.375) (0.2 0.3125 0.3375) (0.3 0.2493 0.2838) (0.4 0.275 0.28125) (0.5 0.26 0.27) (0.6 0.2588 0.2493) (0.7 0.24642845 0.23928553) (0.8 0.23125 0.2375) (0.9 0.2323 0.232) (1 0.2225 0.22)) gnuplot set term png Terminal type set to 'pngcairo' Options are ' size 640, 480 ' gnuplot set output basic-plot.png gnuplot set title Putting it All Together gnuplot gnuplot set xlabel X gnuplot set xrange [0:1] gnuplot set xtics 0,0.1,1 gnuplot gnuplot gnuplot set ylabel Y gnuplot set yrange [0.2:0.5] gnuplot set ytics 0.2,0.05,0.5 gnuplot gnuplot gnuplot plot data u 1:2 w p lw 2 title 'x vs. y1', \ data u 1:3 w lp lw 1 title 'x vx. y2' warning: Skipping unreadable file ((0.1 0.425 0.375) (0.2 0.3125 0.3375) (0.3 0.2493 0.2838) (0.4 0.275 0.28125) (0.5 0.26 0.27) (0.6 0.2588 0.2493) (0.7 0.24642845 0.23928553) (0.8 0.23125 0.2375) (0.9 0.2323 0.232) (1 0.2225 0.22)) warning: Skipping unreadable file ((0.1 0.425 0.375) (0.2 0.3125 0.3375) (0.3 0.2493 0.2838) (0.4 0.275 0.28125) (0.5 0.26 0.27) (0.6 0.2588 0.2493) (0.7 0.24642845 0.23928553) (0.8 0.23125 0.2375) (0.9 0.2323 0.232) (1 0.2225 0.22)) No data in plot I've not regenerated the plots for a few days - maybe a week - so I cannot be confident that only something today broke this. I'm fairly confident that only org-mode (and as aforementioned emacs-w3m) have changed in my emacs setup.

I believe that this feature may only be available in later versions of gnuplot. I'm using gnuplot 4.4 locally and I've had no problems using gnuplot from Org-mode code blocks which I do most every day. the syntax for defining variables is fairly simple, try the following directly in the gnuplot terminal, if your gnuplot does have variable support it should graph a straight line of y=10 #+begin_src gnuplot a=10 plot a #+end_src Best -- Eric Nigel Beck m...@nigelbeck.com writes: John - thanks for the quick reply (and, btw, the very useful tutorial).

[Orgmode] Re: orgtbl mode puzzle
Carsten - thanks for the reply. I had thought of using radio tables to splice in the table details while putting some nice handiwork around the table column headers (for example, having a column header span multiple columns in the final draft(s) of a doc). Is there an alternative approach you'd recommend? I understand the notion is to avoid infecting org-mode docs overly much with the details of different export targets; at the same time, as a doc moves to final draft at times such things appear unavoiding to get the desired layout.
