Re: [O] How do you store web pages for reference?

[Peter Salazar]

By the way, you can definitely save a PDF with links if you prefer that. I
use DevonThink, and I use this snippet to save a PDF of a webpage, complete
with links.

javascript:window.location='x-devonthink://createPDF?title='+encodeURIComponent(document.title)+'='+encodeURIComponent(window.location)+'='+encodeURIComponent(document.referrer)+'=No='+window.innerWidth;

Re: [O] how to export to HTML using old-style numbered div ID's?

[Peter Salazar]

Thank you so much for the responses! In fact I did try filing a bug report
to the org-html-slideshow developers, but the project is no longer under
active development and I never heard back.

Fortunately, I was able to convince a friend who's a ClojureScript expert
to take a look. He forked the org-html-slideshow project and updated the
code to be compatible with the new org-mode export, as well as adding a
bunch of extra features like a play/pause keystroke for HTML5 videos and
YouTube videos.

So if anyone's interested in HTML presentations, a new and improved version
of org-html-slideshow that's compatible with org-mode 9.x is available at:
https://github.com/aiba/org-html-slideshow.

Thanks everyone!

[O] how to export to HTML using old-style numbered div ID's?

[Peter Salazar]

Hi everyone,

I figured out that the problem I've been having with org-html-slideshow (
https://github.com/relevance/org-html-slideshow) is that it relies on the
old-style numbered anchors that org-mode used to generate for div ID's in
HTML export—the ones that looked like "sec-1-2".

Example:




As you know, the new 8.x org-mode HTML exporter generates this instead:

 
 

This output confuses org-html-slideshow, preventing it from correctly
advancing the slides in the presenter view.

Does anyone know how can I direct org-mode 8.x to generate div tags with
the old-style numbered anchors like it used to?

Thanks!

Subject: HTML presentations using org-html-slideshow?
To: org-mode <emacs-orgmode@gnu.org>


Hi everyone,

I've been using the excellent org-html-slideshow (
https://github.com/relevance/org-html-slideshow) to generate HTML slides
from org-mode, and it's been working well for me for years.

It generates HTML slides from org-mode using the org-mode heading
hierarchy. Tag any heading with the org-tag :slide: and that heading and
its contents automatically become their own slide once you export to HTML
using org-export-dispatch.

I prefer org-html-slideshow to org-reveal since it allows me the ability to
easily customize the look and feel of slides—by creating a custom
slide—simply by adding an org-tag. So if I tag an org-heading with the tag
:fullscreenslide: for example (so that the heading looks like * Heading
:slide:fullscreenslide:), it will then export that slide to HTML with
class="fullscreenslide" — and I can then use CSS to customize the look and
feel of all slides with that class.

Org-html-slideshow also offers a great Presenter View, which opens in a
separate tab in your browser, and displays your speaker notes, the current
slide, and the next slide. Unfortunately, org-html-slideshow is no longer
being actively developed, and a recent update to org-mode has broken the
way Presenter View functions. Somehow with the new org-mode updates, the
"next slide" view in Presenter Notes mode no longer advances correctly. The
"next slide" slide gets stuck in a loop of 4-5 slides, and just repeats
those few slides. It does not reliably show you what the next slide is
going to be.

I notice that the output from example.org when I export to HTML is fairly
different from the example.html that's in the repo. Something in those
differences is breaking the ability of Presenter Notes to advance to the
next slide:
https://gist.github.com/incandescentman/dca040c750a3e9e7e687942d69ebd53f

Anyone else using org-html-slideshow? Does anyone have any thoughts on how
to get this working again? Thanks!

[O] HTML presentations using org-html-slideshow?

[Peter Salazar]

Hi everyone,

I've been using the excellent org-html-slideshow (
https://github.com/relevance/org-html-slideshow) to generate HTML slides
from org-mode, and it's been working well for me for years.

It generates HTML slides from org-mode using the org-mode heading
hierarchy. Tag any heading with the org-tag :slide: and that heading and
its contents automatically become their own slide once you export to HTML
using org-export-dispatch.

I prefer org-html-slideshow to org-reveal since it allows me the ability to
easily customize the look and feel of slides—by creating a custom
slide—simply by adding an org-tag. So if I tag an org-heading with the tag
:fullscreenslide: for example (so that the heading looks like * Heading
:slide:fullscreenslide:), it will then export that slide to HTML with
class="fullscreenslide" — and I can then use CSS to customize the look and
feel of all slides with that class.

Org-html-slideshow also offers a great Presenter View, which opens in a
separate tab in your browser, and displays your speaker notes, the current
slide, and the next slide. Unfortunately, org-html-slideshow is no longer
being actively developed, and a recent update to org-mode has broken the
way Presenter View functions. Somehow with the new org-mode updates, the
"next slide" view in Presenter Notes mode no longer advances correctly. The
"next slide" slide gets stuck in a loop of 4-5 slides, and just repeats
those few slides. It does not reliably show you what the next slide is
going to be.

I notice that the output from example.org when I export to HTML is fairly
different from the example.html that's in the repo. Something in those
differences is breaking the ability of Presenter Notes to advance to the
next slide:

[O] HTML blocks not exporting correctly

[Peter Salazar]

Since upgrading to org-mode 9.0, I am unable to export HTML blocks. When I
export to HTML, the contents of HTML blocks export literally, rather than
as rendered HTML.

So for instance, I have an org-mode file containing this:

#+BEGIN_HTML
http://orgmode.org;>link
#+END_HTML

When I export to HTML, I get an HTML file that has the literal text "http://orgmode.org;>link" rather than creating a hyperlink.

Is there a fix for this? Thanks!

[O] how to org-refile to a target within the current file?

[Peter Salazar]

Hello, I use org-refile quite a bit, but for my use-case, I want to refile
my org-mode subtrees not to an org-agenda file, but to the current file or
another file I'm currently visiting.

I had a way of doing this that was working correctly, but now has stopped
working. I'm not sure what I changed that broke it.

Here's the code I'm using for org-refile:

(setq org-outline-path-complete-in-steps nil) ; Refile in a single go
(setq org-completion-use-ido nil)
(setq org-refile-use-outline-path t) ; Show full paths for refiling
(setq org-refile-allow-creating-parent-nodes (quote confirm)) ; allow
refile to create parent tasks with confirmation

(defun my-org-files-list ()
 (mapcar (lambda (buffer)
   (buffer-file-name buffer))
   (org-buffer-list 'files t)))

(setq org-refile-targets '((my-org-files-list :maxlevel . 3)))

Again, this used to work. But now when I run org-refile, I get this:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
  get-file-buffer(nil)
  org-find-base-buffer-visiting(nil)
  org-get-agenda-file-buffer(nil)
  org-refile-get-targets(nil (#("this" 0 4 (fontified t face org-level-1
  org-refile-get-location("Refile subtree \"this\" to" nil confirm nil)
  org-refile(nil)
  call-interactively(org-refile record nil)
  command-execute(org-refile record)
  execute-extended-command(nil "org-refile")
  call-interactively(execute-extended-command nil nil)
  command-execute(execute-extended-command)

Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks!

Re: [O] org-agenda error

[Peter Salazar]

Update: I fixed the org-agenda problem. Turns out the problem was that I'd
created my own custom defun called org-today, and it was interfering with
org-agenda.

The helm-org-in-buffer-headings error is still occurring. Thanks for any
thoughts.

Unfortunately, that's not the case (that helm-org-in-buffer-headings) is
called in a non-org buffer. It happens whenever I call it from within any
org-file. I also tried calling it from within a short, minimal org-file
with just a few headings of various levels, and I get the same error.

The error, once again, is this:

Re: [O] org-agenda error

[Peter Salazar]

Well that's interesting. When I do C-u M-x org-reload and then call
org-agenda, it displays correctly with no error.

How do I debug? I already went into my config files and commented out all
the code containing the word org-agenda, but the error still happens.

[O] org-agenda error

[Peter Salazar]

Hey everyone,

I'm suddenly getting "byte-code: Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p,
nil" when I try to call org-agenda. This happens even when org-agenda-files
is set to nil. Here's the backtrace. Any thoughts on how I can track down
the source of the problem?

[O] help debugging org-element crashes?

[Peter Salazar]

Hey everyone,

I'm finding my Emacs crashing a lot; other times I get errors like these
which I assume are related to the crashes:
http://pastebin.com/Tncs79r0
http://pastebin.com/jfdEYwVk

I mean total Emacs crashes, where I have to force quit Emacs itself. It's
happened in various org-mode situations including:
- pasting text from OSX clipboard
- promoting/demoting org-headings
- moving subtree up or down (i.e. using org-metadown org org-metaup)

My details:

Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10.5
GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0, Carbon Version 157 AppKit
1348.17)
Org-mode version 8.3.1 (8.3.1-129-ga7c8d2-elpaplus @
org-plus-contrib-20150921/)

I've tried reinstalling org-plus-contrib... I have also enabled
org-element-debug.

Any suggestions on how I can track this down and fix it?

Thanks!

 For plain text it works nicely, but not for caption (and export to latex or

 The test org-file I used contains the following:

 just in plain text: bla_blu, bla\_blu; both works nicely.

 #+CAPTION: Some bla bla and an underscore: bla_blu. The same escaped:

[O] how can I use plain-text URLs in org-mime?

[Peter Salazar]

Hi Eric and others,

I'm using org-mime-htmlize to send email, but I'm having trouble with
plain-text links (i.e. not org-mode formatted links with square brackets,
but URLs by themselves) and with image links (again, not org-mode format).

Say I have an org-mode file with this subtree:

,
|
|  * foo
|  http://google.com
|
|  http://i.imgur.com/kJn0xNs.jpg
|
`

These work as desired when I org-export to HTML. The URL gets converted to
a clickable a href anchor, and the image gets displayed as an img src
image.

How do I get this same behavior in org-mime? When I try to email this same
content using message-mode and org-mime-htmlize, I get this:

Lisp error: (args-out-of-range 0 0)
get-text-property(0 face)

Re: [O] Collaborative Team Project Management with Orgmode?

[Peter Salazar]

So what would it take to make Gnorb work with org-contacts and mu4e? I know
Gnorb works with Gnus, but in my opinion, Gnorb's ability
to automatically catch and identify incoming emails isn't as useful as
its other features.

In other words, if using Gnorb with mu4e required the user to manually flag
an incoming email through a function like add-message-to-gnorb, Gnorb
would still retain 99% of its usefulness. The most useful functionality, as
John Kitchin noted, would be to capture information from a mu4e email
reply, and process it and incorporate it back into an org-mode file.

 Sounds exactly like Gnorb! Except org-contacts instead of BBDB, and mu4e

  depending in your role in the project, you might get something like that

 its possible meanings, but your definition, AFAIU, was :noexport:
 tags's.

 Now there is a clearer definition of a COMMENT headline, and a clear
 distinction between COMMENT and :noexport:.

 Note that you don't have to alter any of your files. The following
 function can do it for you on the fly, before each export. You can also
 used it to effectively alter your files automatically for you.

   (defun my-comment-to-noexport (backend)
 (interactive)
 (goto-char (point-min))
 (while (re-search-forward ^\\*+.*\\( COMMENT\\) nil t)
   (when (save-match-data (org-in-commented-heading-p t))
 (replace-match  nil nil nil 1)
 (org-set-tags-to (cons noexport (org-get-tags))

   (add-hook 'org-export-before-processing-hook #'my-comment-to-noexport)

 I admit it could have been notified in ORG-NEWS.

  Another issue I had with 8.3 is the deletion of the
  org-latex-with-hyperref variable, something I could not find in the
  release notes (maybe I missed it). I understand that having Org insert
  \hypersetup{...} details is the most desirable situation, but I fail
  to see the harm in keeping org-latex-with-hyperref for those of us who
  needed it in the past. Yes, I figured out a fix, but this is a fix
  that forces me to stick with an outmoded way of doing things, and so
  I consider this deletion to be a bug.

 I'm not sure to understand. What is wrong with setting
 `org-latex-hyperref-template' to the empty string?

 This change was introduced in Feb 2014. It is a step forward since we
 move from an opt-in/opt-out to a full customizable template.

 I overlooked the fact that this replacement wasn't signaled in ORG-NEWS,
 tho. I will try to be more careful for next release.

  I do understand that all software has bugs, and that everyone working
  on Org is doing so voluntarily (thank you so much for your wonderful
  work). But I was very surprised to find that the evaluation of table
  formulas didn't work in 8.3.1. I could see something like this
  happening in the development version, but it is somewhat mysterious to
  me how such a bug could make its way into a stable release.

 I introduced these changes a short time (three days) before release.
 I made an announcement[fn:1] in order to warn there could be some
 hiccups in that area. It may be obnoxious for you, but no bug was
 reported before release.

 Another example is the recent columns view bug report[fn:2]. The faulty
 commit was pushed 2 months ago. Yet no one during development phase
 complained about column view being broken. Even a feature freeze period
 wouldn't have helped in that case.

 You can't really avoid small glitches after a release.

  I guess what I want to know, and maybe there is no answer, is how long
  should I wait before upgrading to a stable release? Org is by far the
  most important piece of software I use (I hate it when I can't use
  Org), and bugs (which I know can't be avoided) make it hard, even
  impossible, for me to get my real work done. If there is a way for me
  to minimize encountering bugs, I will appreciate a description of that
  way.

 I suggest to only do regularly minor updates (e.g. 8.3.1 - 8.3.2). For
 major updates, make sure you have some time to spare for bug reporting.
 I think we are usually pretty responsive when it comes to bugs.

  My take on what you've shown here is that you've got it a bit backwards.
  Apologies if you've tried many things and you settled on this on
  purpose, but it looks like you're trying to organize the Org file to
  look like the Agenda.
 
  It took me a while to get used to this, too. I think you'll find the Org
  tools work better if you forget about what the file itself looks like,
  and just look at the Agenda. So your Org file would look like:
 
  * All to Do [1/1]
  ** finished iron the cat 2015-08-11 Tue
 
  And the Agenda will show you everything under its proper date heading.
 
  I've got scheduling Org files I hardly ever look at directly: todos go
  in with capture, and are examined, resolved and archived via the Agenda.
  It can be freeing, once you let the file itself go!
 
  I think you may be on to something. I use org every day, but I've been
  using it for longer than I'd like to admit in underpowered and goofy
  ways. I get inspired by power-user setups, go for it, get swamped by
  complexity, throw up my hands.
 
  I'm trying something new here by going as dead-simple as I can. I can
 always add stuff as the need arises.
 
  I need to keep things reaaly easy while still doing things
 the org way. I'll try to use an active timestamp and just try to remain
 calm.
 
  Oh, and while all the property drawers and options lines and everything
 are really cool and useful, all the junk that can fill up a buffer can sure
 get ugly and distracting.
 
  So I can avoid looking at all that?

 Sure, in principle you don't need that stuff at all! It depends on what
 you're using Org for, but if you're really trying to start simple and
 build up, then ignore properties etc for now.

 Starting off simple probably means just dumping all your TODOs under one
 heading. Use timestamps for events (going to the doctor), SCHEDULED for
 tasks you plan to do at a certain time (iron the cat above should
 probably have been a schedule, not a timestamp), and DEADLINE for tasks
 that need to be done by a certain time.

 An event should have a timestamp, but not a SCHEDULED or DEADLINE. A
 task should have one or both of SCHEDULED and DEADLINE (having both
 would mean this has to be done by tomorrow morning, and I'm working on
 it this afternoon).

 Use two todo keywords: TODO and DONE.

 Then just stay in the Agenda. Use t to change todo status, and ,
 C-c C-s and C-c C-d to manipulate the times. Nearly everything you
 want to do can be done using Agenda commands -- read that section of the
 manual a couple of times, and don't go to the file unless you have to.

 Stick with that until you really start to feel the need for more
 complexity. That might be more todo keywords, or maybe tag filtering. Or
 customizing how things are shown in the Agenda. My guess is you'll be
 able to go pretty far with just the above setup.

 Good luck,
 Eric

Re: [O] Babel error on init with 8.3.1

[Peter Salazar]

Thanks for all the help! I figured out that the problem wasn't with the
installation, but that Emacs was calling org (i.e. the built-in version)
before org-plus-contrib was being loaded. At least I think that's what the
problem was.

What I know for sure is that placing the line (add-to-list 'load-path
.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20150810/) at the very beginning of my
init file made that error message go away, and now Emacs and
org-plus-contrib appear to launch successfully.

However, I'm still getting errors when I do org-refile. Doing org-refile
triggers this error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
  get-file-buffer(nil)
  org-find-base-buffer-visiting(nil)

I don't think this is an issue with installation, because it still happens
after I do org-reload or C-u org-reload. Does anyone know how I can debug
this?

Thanks!

Re: [O] [OFF TOPIC] almost giving up on emacs email..looking for advice?

[Peter Salazar]

Like Fabrice, I also still process my email using the Gmail web interface.
The only reason I want email within Emacs is so I can compose replies in a
proper editor with all my keybindings. I tried Chrome's Edit with Emacs,
but it loses line breaks when it sends the output from Emacs back to Gmail.
So I prefer to write replies within Emacs.

Since I only need a small fraction of my emails to go through Emacs, I set
up mbsync to pull only my starred messages:

Channel gmail-starred
Master :gmail-remote:[Gmail]/Starred
Slave :gmail-local:starred
Create Both
Expunge Both
SyncState *

If this is of interest to you I can share my setup.

  On this thread, I will report quite a different user experience.

  I have been using (ding) Gnus under Windows NT in the late 90's and up
  to about 2010.
 
  But now, I process my mail using the GMail browser interface.
  The reasons are mostly due to :
  - emacs is slow, chrome displays email more precisely and more quickly
  - emacs is not multi-threaded, hence it may get stuck processing
  stuff.
  Using the browser to process mail allows me not to be disturbed when
  I'm writing documents or programming using Emacs.
 
  I'll keep and eye on the solutions that have been reported here
  though.

 Interesting. I use a variety of email clients, mainly browser-based ones
 (GMail, Fastmail), Thunderbird, and gnus. I keep gnus in
 the arsenal for three main reasons:

 1) I can do everything quickly without having to move my hands from the
 keyboard. If there isn't already a shortcut for what I want,
 I can add one.

 2) I need a decent editor for replies. I have not found a browser-based
 client that has this.

 3) To bring this somewhat back on topic, I've recently discovered org
 capture, and I love the fact that I can capture a note with a
 link to a specific email message.

 That last feature alone is reason enough for me.  FWIW, I'm on a Mac, and
 I generally use Gnu emacs for editing, programming, etc.,
 and use Aquamacs for running gnus. This avoids any latency problems, etc.

Re: [O] Babel error on init with 8.3.1

Thanks. Tried that, but then when I launch regular Emacs with my init file,
I still get this error:

Any other ideas?

 Update: the install of org-plus-contrib was eventually successful, but it
 seems that my attempt to launch a GUI version Emacs -Q didn't work.



 Here's what I did:



 $ open -a /Applications/Emacs.app --args --no-init



 C-u M-x org-reload



 package-list-packages



 select and delete org-plus-contrib



 package-install org-plus-contrib



 But then when I quit and launch Emacs without the --no-init argument, I
 still get:



 Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable org-planning-line-re)

   org-element--current-element(168330 element planning nil)



 ...which I think means org-plus-contrib was not successfully upgraded.



 Any thoughts? Thanks!

 When you “ updated org through the package manager in Emacs,” I believe
 you need to make sure org has not been loaded at all.



 My practice is to exec `emacs –Q`, immediately update with package
 manager, then quit and restart emacs without the –Q.

Did that, same error. When I run $ emacs -Q and then immediately do
org-version, I get: Org-mode version 8.2.10 (release_8.2.10 @
/usr/local/Cellar/emacs/24.5/share/emacs/24.5/lisp/org/)

 Maybe the builtin Org is being loaded before your elpa version.  (In the
 backtrace you posted from your startup, I see a find-file call with an
 Org file.)  What does org-version say?

 Yes, I agree that it is better to install in a clean session without Org
 loaded.  The idea behind the other recipe is that, if an Org install
 with compilation issues is already loaded, it loads the uncompiled files
 from the new Org version.

 This seems to help in my tests.

 2. Load the builtin Org.

 3. Go to list-packages and install 'org-20150810'.  This results in many
compilation issues (see end of message).

 4. C-u M-x org-reload

 5. Uninstall and then reinstall with package-list-packages.  This gets

 Nicolas might have a better suggestion of what to do next, but I think
 it means the state of your Emacs session was interfering with the
 correct compilation.  Since 'C-u M-x org-reload' forced an uncompiled
 reload, you could try uninstalling/installing the package again.  Or you
 try Ista's snippet[1] for installing in a fresh session:

 Since it doesn't work for you I suggest removing org-plus-contrib
 (or org), starting emacs with 'emacs -Q' and running something like

 (require 'package)
 (add-to-list 'package-archives
  '(org . http://orgmode.org/elpa/;) t)
 (package-initialize)
 (package-install 'org-plus-contrib)
 ;; or (package-install 'org)

Re: [O] [OFF TOPIC] almost giving up on emacs email..looking for advice?

[Peter Salazar]

I also just installed notmuch, in addition to mu4e, and so far I quite like
notmuch. The interface so far is a little more intuitive (with mu4e, for
instance, I kept getting tripped up hitting r to reply to a message and
finding that it's bound to something else).

I did get offlineimap working, but I decided to switch to mbsync, which is
also working quite well. Let me know if you need pointers on setting it up.

On the topic of Emacs email, does anyone know how to set
message-citation-line-function so that replying doesn't quote/cite the
original message at all?


On Thu, Aug 6, 2015 at 7:51 PM, Ramon Diaz-Uriarte rdia...@gmail.com
wrote:

 You have received several great answers already, but my 2 cents here.

 I've used mu4e with offlineimap[1] for about three years now, and I am
 reasonably happy with it. I particularly like the search capabilities
 (which I now often complement with helm-mu). Setting it up was not
 particularly hard (and how to configure for gmail was just a matter of
 following the documentation), and I do not recall experiencing any of the
 issues you mention (I had a few others, but they have disappeared over
 versions).


 Before that, I used wanderlust with offlineimap, and I also liked it a lot
 (I think I got this to work from emacs-fu, the blog of mu4e's
 author). Initial configuration wasn't really harder than mu4e (I think I
 quickly found how to configure gmail by googling around). In fact, if you
 are used to the gmail way of doing things, wanderlust might be more
 familiar; for example, placing the same email in several folders, or
 however you want to call them, or being shown the folder structure with
 options to collapse/expand easily. Now, I actually prefer mu4e's approach
 most of the time and don't care much about the folder structure (I search
 and find; no need to try to recall where I filed a message).


 Actually, to me, overall, wanderlust just seemed easier to use[2], and many
 of the defaults made a lot more sense to me (i.e., with wanderlust I had to
 google around less to find how to do what I wanted and I added less code to
 my .emacs). That said, I haven't made any serious change to my mu4e
 configuration in over two years, I think, so it is well amortized.

 I switched to mu4e because I was using wanderlust but searching for/within
 emails with mu so I figured I might just do the full switch; as well,
 development and activity around mu4e seemed, well, much more active.



 In terms of checking email with gmail from other devices (tablet, phone): I
 very rarely do so, but when I've needed to I've never had an issue while
 using wanderlust + offlineimap or mu4e + offlineimap. Things work the way I
 expect (changes in gmail if checked from my tablet show up in my computer
 and viceversa). Of course, checking email from multiple computers has no
 problems whatsoever.


 Finally, even if setting email with emacs was not a half hour thing, I am
 really glad I did so [3].


 Best,


 R.



 [1] Offlineimap is slow, and has other issues. I searched for alternatives
 two or three years ago, and did not find anything convincing (e.g., see
 this resignated summary http://blog.ezyang.com/2012/08/offlineimap-sucks/
 from a few years ago). After Titus' answer, I might give mbsync a try,
 since now encrypted passwords are supported, etc.



 [2] This is, of course, just my experience (or my incompetence). For
 example, with mu4e I had to search around to find how to get a reasonable
 way to add the date of the original message to the reply or forward but it
 worked just fine for me with wanderlust. I still struggle with address
 completion and blacklist in mu4e whereas address completion in wanderlust
 with BBDB always did exactly what I wanted. Or when I started using mu4e I
 missed a lot from wanderlust the C-c C-j that allows you to choose account
 to send from. In all fairness this is also available for mu4e
 (http://www.djcbsoftware.nl/code/mu/mu4e/Multiple-accounts.html) but
 requires you to add some extra code.


 [3] Why? I find the web interface of gmail slow to navigate, cumbersome,
 and bloated. I also used kmail which was, well, OK, but it was not the
 editor/environment I use for everything else (for a while, I used kmail but
 used emacsclient for email writing) and searching was not what it is with
 mu4e or helm-mu.

[O] how to pass variables (such as to-address) to org-mime?

To Eric and the org-list,

Question about org-mime. When sending email, I'd like to instruct org-mime
to pull certain variables from my org-mode subtrees. For example, how can I
instruct org-mime to pull the to email address from the subtree?

So that, for example, my org-mode subtree could look something like this
and org-mime would pull the email address automatically?

[O] how to org-refile-region?

[Peter Salazar]

Is there a way to automatically refile highlighted text under an
org-heading? i.e. to cut the highlighted text and automatically paste it
under the heading of my choice?

You could call it org-refile-region. Similar to org-refile, but to refile
not the entire subtree, but only the highlighted region under any heading
in the current document. Ideally this would offer me only headings in the
current document.

Here's a start:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25256304/in-emacs-org-mode-how-to-refile-highlighted-text-under-an-org-heading

Thanks!

Re: [O] how to org-refile-region?

[Peter Salazar]

Again, ideally this functionality would be independent of the org-agenda
files used by org-refile, so as to avoid displaying irrelevant headings as
possible targets.

Currently this is doable by doing:
1. select text
2. cut
3. other-window
4. navigate to desired target heading
5. paste text
6. other window

The proposed new function would make this much more efficient:
1. select text
2. org-refile-region
3. choose target

The most useful form of this would allow you to choose a target from among
any currently open documents. My use case involves selecting text from one
buffer and refiling it from among org-headings in another buffer, i.e.
moving text from a source document displayed in one window and refiling to
targets within the hierarchy of a target document displayed in another
window, like so:

 You could call it org-refile-region. Similar to org-refile, but to refile
 not the entire subtree, but only the highlighted region under any heading
 in the current document. Ideally this would offer me only headings in the
 current document.

 Here's a start:

[O] org todos on paper?

[Peter Salazar]

I keep meeting people who say they started getting more things done more
efficiently once they started printing out their tasks lists, so they can
have the experience of seeing the list on paper and, more importantly, the
satisfaction of crossing an item off on the page.

Does anyone have a workflow they're happy with that involves printing out
their org-mode todo lists?

  Do you have emacs server and org-protocol enabled ? Something like this
  in your .emacs:
 
  (server-start)
  (require 'org-protocol)
 
  If not, you should add these two lines and maybe have a look on worg:
  http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-protocol.html
 
  You can also test manually in a shell with:
 
   emacsclient org-protocol://capture://example.com/Example/
 
  (It is exactly what does the add-on)
 

 My emacsclient is is /usr/local/bin - I changed that in the addon's
 preferences panel.The command line invocation works fine for me -
 the button in FF (26.0 fwiw) does not: nothing happens. I uninstalled
 and reinstalled the addon a couple of times, restarted FF: no go.
 Is there a way to debug the FF end of the equation?

Re: [O] copy title text string from #+TITLE field?

[Peter Salazar]

Thanks. I do need it only on export, but even so, it doesn't seem to be
working:

http://i.imgur.com/1tMGaHz.png

Again, it's inside an HTML code block. Not sure if there's a way to make it
work inside that block?

#+BEGIN_HTML
...
div class=page-header
  h1{{{title}}}/h1
/div
...
#+END_HTML



 {{{title}}}  should do it. See

 (info (org) Macro replacement)

Actually, I'm not sure it will do: macro replacement takes place during
export, so it may or may not be enough, depending on what you really
want to do.

[O] external setup file for org-html-preamble?

[Peter Salazar]

Hello,

I'm exporting my org-mode files to HTML. I've been using:

# Local Variables:
# org-html-preamble:
# End:

to insert a custom HTML preamble and postamble for my org files for HTML
export.

Just now for simplicity, I'm trying to move the preamble and postamble to
an external setup file.

In my org-mode file, I now have

#+SETUPFILE: setup.org

and my setup.org file looks like this: http://ix.io/apQ

However, when I try to export to HTML, I get Invalid format string

Can anyone spot the problem in my setup file? http://ix.io/apQ

Thanks!

[O] copy title text string from #+TITLE field?

[Peter Salazar]

Next question: is there a way to take the text from the #+TITLE: field of
an org file and insert it, as text, somewhere else within the file (i.e.
inside an HTML block)?

I can't do this manually because my various org files all use an #+INCLUDE:
reference to the same org file, which contains some HTML blocks. For each
different org file, I'd like to copy the title text string from #+TITLE
field and insert it inside an H1/H1 field in an HTML block in the
included file.

Is this possible? Thanks!

 Here's some ideas on the LaTeX side; I don't use HTML nearly as much...

 Do you have anything setting margins in your header? I can't stand the
 default LaTeX margins, so every one of my article-style documents has
 the following header:
 #+latex_header: \usepackage[hmargin=2.5cm,vmargin=2.5cm]{geometry}

 You can also ditch the title/date with this line:
 #+BIND: org-latex-title-command 

 Note that to use this, you need the following in your config (or at
 least to customize it to prompt the user if using #+bind is okay):
 (setq org-export-allow-bind-keywords t)

 Lastly, you can remove the footer (centered page number) with setting
 an empty pagestyle:
 \pagestyle{empty}

 Putting it all together, see what you think of this result (I get a
 pretty big image, with just the heading and the image).


 #+begin_src example

 #+options: toc:nil
 #+latex_header: \usepackage[hmargin=2.5cm,vmargin=2.5cm]{geometry}
 #+BIND: org-latex-title-command 

 \pagestyle{empty}


 * test

 #+begin_center
 #+attr_latex: :width \textwidth
 [[./tux.png]]
 #+end_center

 #+end_src

 I downloaded this image as tux.png (same directory as the test file):
 http://post.putorius.net/images/originaltux.png


 Hope that helps a bit,

 resulting PDF has no Table of Contents, and the header displays the section
 title as Contents.
 
  The same thing happens with #+LATEX: \setcounter{secnumdepth}{0}.
 
  Richard: Your idea about
  #+LATEX_HEADER: \renewcommand{...}
 
  sounds very promising! I'd love to know what the exact command is!

 The quick-and-dirty solution is

 --8---cut here---start-8---
 #+LATEX_HEADER: \renewcommand{\thesection}{}
 #+LATEX_HEADER: \renewcommand{\thesubsection}{}
 #+LATEX_HEADER: \renewcommand{\thesubsubsection}{}
 --8---cut here---end---8---

 That's enough for the default secnumdepth of 3, but if you make that
 bigger, you'll have to make it even dirtier:

 --8---cut here---start-8---
 #+LATEX_HEADER: \renewcommand{\theparagraph}{}
 #+LATEX_HEADER: \renewcommand{\thesubparagraph}{}
 --8---cut here---end---8---

 There is probably a cleaner way, but that would require cleverness
 and I don't have any right now.

 BTW, this turns off section numbers in the TOC as well, not just in the
 body of the document.

[O] heading numbering in LaTeX export?

[Peter Salazar]

I have a LaTeX template I created for use with org-mode, to export to PDF
via LaTeX using xelatex.

I don't edit LaTeX directly, I just generate from org-mode. This works
perfectly for me except for one thing: it only works when I have heading
numbering turned on.

When I turn numbering off in org-mode, by adding this line to my org-mode
file...

#+OPTIONS:   num:nil

...LaTeX no longer recognizes my headings as headings. This creates two
problems:

1. The Table of Contents is blank.
2. The \leftmark in the heading shows up as Contents instead of showing
up as the title of the section.

How do I modify these org-mode preferences such that my I can turn heading
numbering off in org-mode while still correctly generating a Table of
Contents and adding my section title to the header?

I'm sorry, but I don't know enough about LaTeX to make a minimum
representation of this. I have no idea where the problem is.

Here are the org-mode preferences in question:

[O] how to change appearance of org-mode files on Github?

[Peter Salazar]

Github supports org-mode files, and has a renderer that parses .org files
and converts them to HTML form. Headings appear in larger font, org tables
are converted to graphical HTML tables, etc.

Is there a way to control the way .org files appear on Github?

I tried adding some export options in the usual manner

#+OPTIONS:   H:2 toc:t

but the options are not reflected.

Is this possible?

If not, what's the best way to automatically push to the web the most
version of a locally stored org-mode file without having to Export to HTML
every time I make a change?

[O] change styling in code block HTML export?

[Peter Salazar]

When I export an org-mode file to HTML, my code blocks don't have curly
quotes and don't convert --- to —.

I know this is by design but I want to change it.

I have (setq org-export-with-smart-quotes t) set in my .emacs, which works
correctly in the rest of my exported document—but code blocks receive their
own styling.

Can I change the export styling of my code blocks so that they do observe
curly quotes and em dashes?

In fact, is there a way to disable the switch that makes code blocks into
code blocks, so I can just style them manually using CSS to my liking on
HTML export?

Thanks!

 The old org-latex-to-pdf-process variable (which you are initializing
 in your latex.el file) has been renamed to org-latex-pdf-process. I
 presume that you are not touching the latter, so it's left at default,
 so the exporter ends up invoking pdflatex instead of xelatex.

 You probably want to duplicate the setting in latex.el so that it will
 continue working in both 8.0 and 7.9.4, rather than eliminating the old
 one:

 --8---cut here---start-8---
 (setq org-latex-to-pdf-process
   '(xelatex -interaction nonstopmode %f
  xelatex -interaction nonstopmode %f)) ;; for multiple passes

 (setq org-latex-pdf-process
   '(xelatex -interaction nonstopmode %f
  xelatex -interaction nonstopmode %f)) ;; for multiple passes
 --8---cut here---end---8---

 or just:

 --8---cut here---start-8---
 (setq org-latex-pdf-process org-latex-to-pdf-process)
 --8---cut here---end---8---

 (Untested).

[O] problems with latex custom classes in new exporter

[O] make footnotes appear as tooltips on HTML export?

[Peter Salazar]

Hey everyone,

I had a thought. So, I export most of my org files to both HTML and PDF. I
was thinking that for HTML, the behavior of putting footnotes at the end of
the document, as you would for a printed page, is a bit outdated. In a
printed document, you put the footnotes at the end because you have to. But
with HTML, it doesn't really make sense to make the user click through to
the bottom of the document in order to discover the footnote content. It
would be more in keeping with the spirit of hypertext to create a tooltip
that the user could hover over and view the content instantly inline.

This is trivial to implement using CSS3:
http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2012/11/how-to-create-a-simple-css3-tooltip/

and only slightly more complicated using jQuery:
http://www.chillwebdesigns.co.uk/chilltip

I was thinking about trying to create a way for org-mode to automatically
create tooltips from footnotes, but I'm a beginner, so before I take a
crack at it, I thought I would ask: has anyone already done this?

Or, does anyone have ideas about how to easily automate this behavior using
org export to HTML?

Best,
Peter

Bastien, thanks for the response and the explanation. Looks like getting

right approach then.

can specify the prefix characters org looks for...

 You can't -- using : as the prefix for fixed-width regions is
 hardcoded.  If we allow to customize this, it will lower the
 exchangeability of .org files between users (this exchangeability
 is already quite low due to the many options user have.)

Re: [O] block quotes in prose?

[Peter Salazar]

I think an easy workaround would be to define block quotes as code blocks
instead.

putting the : as a prefix before a paragraph automatically fontifies it
and places it in another color.

This allows me to work in org-mode with visual highlighting of block quotes
as desired.

Now the question is: How do I make org-mode recognize the  prefix as a
demarcator of a code block, so that my document remains readable as

 Looking around, at least some of this appears defined in
 /path/to/org-src/lisp/org-faces.el.

 I don't know enough elisp to tell you how to make Org treat 
 text... the same as #+begin_quote.

 Perhaps you could figure out where the face change is for lines like
 #+latex: and #+begin_src, as they both change the face of the text
 immediately after (no need for an #+end_ command to tell Org to go
 back to the default face). You might be able to add ^ text to the
 list of face-sensitive regexps to look for (using ^ as symbol for
 beginning of line).

 ETA: after some more grepping, it looks like you could add something
 in two places:

 1) org-faces.el

 Search the file for defface and make a new face. I've not done this,
 but you can definitely copy/yank some existing definitions and tweak
 to your liking.

 2) org.el

 Find a matching fontify function to see how the fontification is done.
 They look pretty complicated... but perhaps it's possible to tweak one
 to fontify ^ text

 Perhaps the easiest would be to find a face you like and just add ^
 text... to the existing list of things org already fontifies with
 that style. In other words, add ^ text regexp to the existing hunt
 for lines that start with #+ in order to get src code fontification
 applied.

  2. It would also be cool to find a way to make bulleted lists appear in a
  different color if possible, or a workaround to simulate this.

 As in?
 - item 1
 - item 2

 I'm sure that's possible, too. Can't imagine this will become global,
 but you could surely create your own git branch if you figure out how
 or someone tells you how.


 Good luck!
 John

  My org file looks like this:

 please always send:

 and in this case, dealing with the exporter, if you used the new or the
 old exporter.

 Here:

 so this is a quick and dirty solution.


 2. Otherwise  I cannot get the clock line in the HTML file:

 You could use `org-display-custom-times' variable, with

 Note that if you don't want to toggle the custom time display globally,

 Checkout the `org-mime-subtree' subtree command.  It converts the
 current subtree to an email, pulling email headers from subtree
 properties, specifically

 MAIL_SUBJECT or subtree heading - subject
 MAIL_TO - TO
 MAIL_CC - CC
 MAIL_BCC - BCC
 MAIL_FMT - determines the format of the email (e.g., org, ascii or html)

 so your example above would be

 ** note to person about blah
:PROPERTIES:
   :MAIL_TO:  per...@blah.com
   :MAIL_SUBJECT: ADD people 7 times more likely to be creative
   :END:
Dear Person,

How do you get it to ignore the org star header (** Email) on the first

Re: [O] Mail composed using emacs --- saving a copy in an org file.

[Peter Salazar]

I thought of this too. But the problem is that when opening an indirect
buffer under an org tree entry, or even opening a capture buffer, the org
star heading appears at the top of the buffer. Whereas to send e-mail, at
least using the mail-send command I've been using, the e-mail header
(recipient, subject header, etc) needs to be at the very top of the buffer.

You could always enter the e-mail headers, send the e-mail, then delete
them again. But there must be a better solution.

 Hi!


 You could try doing something with org-capture and the
 org-capture-templates so that you would be creating your email from the
 start as an org tree entry under the appropriate location. You can override
 the org-capture-before-finalize hook (see org-capture.el) to send the mail
 when you're done typing in the indirect buffer and hit C-c C-c (or
 org-capture-finalize).

 I have org-capture set up so I can use it immediately from anywhere in
 Emacs with the C-cc keys:

   (define-key global-map \C-cc 'org-capture)

 That combined with a suitable template and the hook override might give
 you what you're looking for.

 Hope this helps!

  I am partial to just opening a mail buffer and writing email in Emacs.
  Just that.  However, it would be great to save a copy in an org file.
 
  An emacs FAQ suggests sending a BCC or FCC to oneself.  What I want is
  a copy stored in an org-mode subtree, with a convenient headline

 Hi!

 Assuming I've got everything set up correctly and this email makes it
 to the list, this is in response to Alan E. Davis' question about
 sending an email from Emacs and saving a copy in org-mode.

 I make the assumption here that your Emacs is set up to properly send
 emails using the ~mail~ command. Also note that my
 ~org-capture-templates~ setup has more than just an email template.

 Install the lines below just after your org-mode install.

 To use:

  - Invoke org-capture from any buffer with C-cc.
  - Choose the Mail template ([m] key).
  - Enter the recipient's address, then [enter].
  - Enter the mail subject, then [enter].
  - Your cursor is positioned at the start of the email.
  - Write your email.
  - C-c C-c sends it on its way!

 This is very crude and could certainly be improved. However, perhaps
 it's a reasonable starting point!

[O] extra whitespace on first page of LaTeX PDF

[Peter Salazar]

I'm using xelatex org-latex-to-pdf-process to convert org-mode to PDF.

I wanted a page break after the Table of Contents so I modified my
org-export-latex-classes and added:

\\makeatletter
\\g@addto@macro\\@cfttocfinish{\\clearpage}
\\makeatother

But now I have lots of extra whitespace on the page after the Table of
Contents, before the first text appears.

Has anyone run into this before?

[O] org tables

[Peter Salazar]

Hey everyone,

Is there a way to get org to wrap text within a table cell? I want to be
able to enter long text entries into cells without expanding column width.

Also, is there a way to merge cells—say, three cells vertically?

Finally, orgtbl-mode is broken in markdown-mode. Does anyone know a
solution?

[O] org-mode as an accountability system?

[Peter Salazar]

I have an accountability partner with whom I exchange daily committed
actions. Every morning, I e-mail him a list of the tasks I commit to
completing that day.

When I complete a task, I mark it DONE. If I don't complete a task that
day, I mark it @didnotdo and manually cut and paste it to the next day.

Every night, I send him a report of which actions I did and which ones I
did not do. (I find I get so much more done since I started making daily
commitments to someone other than myself.)

My committed actions for a day consist of:

a) TODOs for the projects I'm working on
b) random errands that need to be done that day
c) daily habits (e.g. meditating, exercising)

I don't believe org-agenda can support me in doing this, because I require:

a) a way to quickly enter the random tasks for that day (without having to
schedule each one for today)
b) more importantly: a way to record, store, and e-mail my list of which
tasks I've done and not done at the end of the night

So instead I've been creating a list of TODOs for each day manually.

My questions:

1. Given that I'm creating my daily task list manually, is there an easy
way, when I mark a task @didnotdo, to automatically move it to the next
day's list and change its state to @todo?
2. I'd still like to be able to create outlines for my documents and add
TODO items inline as I think of them. Is there a way to get org to gather
these scattered TODOs and place them in my manually-created daily TODO
list, rather than in the agenda?

Macro question: Is there a better way to manage my accountability system,
rather than doing it manually? Again, I don't see a way to do it using
agenda.

Thanks for any help.

Peter


P.S. If it's helpful, here's a typical list I might send my accountability
partner in the morning:

2012-02-16 Thu

* habits
** @todo - morning practice [0/3]
- [ ] e-mail committed actions
- [ ] stretch for 10 minutes
- [ ] meditate
** @todo - evening practice [0/2]
- [ ] sit-ups
- [ ] e-mail report assessing day's committed actions
* committed actions
** teaching
*** current semester
 @todo - e-mail students [0/2]
* @todo - e-mail Liz
* @todo - e-mail Jean
 @todo - appointment with Claire 4pm
*** next semester

* @todo - send proposal to editor
* @todo - write syllabus
** random tasks
*** @todo - renew prescriptions
*** @todo - clean room
*** @todo - go over Nicole notes
*** @todo - call Andy
*** @todo - jog with Heidi 3pm

A typical report at the end of the night might look like this:

2012-02-16 Thu

* habits
** DONE - morning practice [3/3]
- [X] e-mail committed actions
- [X] stretch for 10 minutes
- [X] meditate
** @todo - evening practice [1/2]
- [ ] sit-ups
- [X] e-mail report assessing day's committed actions
* committed actions
** teaching
*** current semester
 @todo - e-mail students [2/2]
* DONE - e-mail Liz
* DONE - e-mail Jean
 @todo - appointment with Claire 4pm
*** next semester
 finish proposal
* @didnotdo - send proposal to editor
* DONE - write syllabus
** random tasks
*** DONE - renew prescriptions
*** @didnotdo - clean room
*** @didnotdo - go over Nicole notes
*** @postponed - call Andy
*** DONE - jog with Heidi 3pm

Re: [O] org-mode as an accountability system?

[Peter Salazar]

Hi Thorsten,

Thanks for the thoughts.

Clarification: I send my accountability partner a summary of MY committed
actions for the day for him to review. We dont' collaborate, and he does
not touch or change my tasks. (Although he does send me a list of his own
tasks, and how well he did each day.)

It's important to send the tasks by e-mail so I know he'll see them right
away (and that will keep me accountable). If I send him a link, I know he
may or may not view the file if and when he has time.

As for using Agenda and hitting  to move a task to the next day, there are
two problems with this:

1. this does not change the state of a @didnotdo task to @todo
2. for habits (using the format SCHEDULED: 2012-03-03 Sat  +1d), if I
miss a day and then try to mark a habit DONE today, it stamps the habit
done for the day I missed, rather than stamping it done today and recording
that I did not do it on the day I was supposed to do it.

  that day, I mark it @didnotdo and manually cut and paste it to the
  next day.
 
  Every night, I send him a report of which actions I did and which ones
  I did not do. (I find I get so much more done since I started making
  daily commitments to someone other than myself.)

 If you both work on the same file using git, the current state of
 affairs will always be clear, as well as who did what at what time (and
 pushed it to the repo).

  1. Given that I'm creating my daily task list manually, is there an
  easy way, when I mark a task @didnotdo, to automatically move it to
  the next day's list and change its state to @todo?

 When I have a TODO task in the agenda that I did not complete today, I
 just change the date to tomorrow in the agenda using ''.
 If you don't do that, it will appear anyway in the agenda as overdue
 task.
