[O] Bug: empty ob-stan.el when installed from ELPA [8.3.4 (8.3.4-47-gaf853d-elpaplus @ /home/tamas/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20160502/)]
This is about the ELPA package org-plus-contrib, but I could not find a more specific place to report it. When installing org-plus-contrib from ELPA, the file ob-stan.el is empty (length 0). This has been the situation for a while (see [1]), but cloning from the master git repo [2] was a workaround, with the expectation that this would eventually be fixed. However, the ELPA version 20160502 has the same problem.

[O] capture: create or append to existing heading, by date
Hi,
I am tracking calories using tables like this:
--8<---cut here---start->8---
** [2015-10-01 Thu]
| | food | quantity | kcal/unit | kcal |
|---+--+--+---+---|
| | | || |
| # | pepper_bell | 100 |57/100 | 57.0 |
| # | cheese_Old_Amsterdam | 20 | 429/100 | 85.8 |
| # | mustard | 15 | 105/100 | 15.8 |
| # | egg |3 |88 | 264.0 |
| # | chocolate_dark | 10 | 550/100 | 55.0 |
|---+--+--+---+---|
| # | | || 477.6 |
#+TBLFM: $4='(diet-lookup-calories $2)::$5=$3*$4;%0.1f::@>$5=vsum(@<<<..@>>)
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
(diet-lookup-calories is a function that looks up calories from another
table).
I need help with the following: the tables are organized daily, with
dates in the headings as above. I would like to have a capture process
where
1. if there is no table for today, create it, capture,
2. if there is a table for today, take me there and capture.
Currently I have implemented 1. with the org-capture-template
--8<---cut here---start->8---
("f" "food diary" entry (file+olp "~/org/calories.org" "diary")
"* %u
| | food | quantity | kcal/unit | kcal |
|---+--+---+-+---|
| | | | | |
| # | | | | |
|---+--+---+-+---|
| # | | | | |
#+TBLFM: $4='(diet-lookup-calories $2)::$5=$3*$4;%0.1f::@>$5=vsum(@<<<..@>>)
")
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
but it would be great if I had an automated process where tables are
created for the first capture of the day, then appended to after.
Thanks,
Tamas
[O] ob-R ignores ess-eval-visibly?
Hi, I prefer ESS not to wait for results of evaluating R code, especially if it takes a longer time (eg estimating a model in RStan, 1-2 minutes), so I have (setq ess-eval-visibly 'nowait) But I find that ob-R ignores this, eg evaluating #+BEGIN_SRC R :results none Sys.sleep(10) #+END_SRC I looked at the source and I think I understand why this is: the results need to be inserted into the buffer. However, could there be an exception for :results none, when they are not needed? Then I could put code which takes a long time into these blocks, and they would not block my Emacs. Best, Tamas

I found that I can also assign an ID to the section, and then use # eval: (progn (org-id-goto ...some-id...) (org-babel-execute-subtree)) It looks like I need the progn for it to work reliably (don't know why). I am wondering if it would be possible to break a line in Local Variables, but # eval: (progn (org-id-goto ...some-id...) \ # (org-babel-execute-subtree)) didn't work. Best, Tamas
[O] eval source blocks in a subtree when opening file
Hi, I have a file that looks like this (stylized): --8<---cut here---start->8--- * Setup :noexport: #+COMMENT: some code here I want to run every time I open the file in SRC blocks * Experiment 1 #+COMMENT: code I run when necessary, not every time * Experiment 2 #+COMMENT: code I run when necessary, not every time * end of file :noexport: #+COMMENT: This is just for local variables, not exported. # Local Variables: # org-confirm-babel-evaluate: nil # org-export-babel-evaluate: 'inline-only # End: --8<---cut here---end--->8--- I would like to do the following: whenever I open the file in Emacs, I would like to eval all the source blocks under the heading Setup. I have found org-babel-execute-subtree, but I cannot figure out how to call it on the subtree "Setup" from a local eval. Best, Tamas
[O] changing cells in an org-mode table with Emacs lisp
Hi, I would like to manipulate cells in an org-mode table using Emacs lisp code. Suppose I have a function (FORMAT-CELL CELL ROW COL) that takes a cell (string), row and column numbers, and returns a new string if I want to replace content in a cell, and NIL otherwise. I need help with writing code that makes Emacs walk the table (all cells), and then the new row when I insert a row (eg after capture). For example, if my formatting function is (defun format-cell (cell row col) ;; toy example, actual code would be more complicated (when (<= (length cell) col) (concat "*" cell "*"))) then the table | a | a | | aa | aa | | aaa | aaa | would be replaced by | *a* | *a* | | aa | *aa* | | aaa | aaa | I need the replacement in place, I don't want to make a new table. I would like to re-align the table when done. Any help with this would be appreciated, in particular, the names of the functions that would help me get started, I could not figure this out. Best, Tamas
[O] error when completing in org-contacts
Hi,
I started using org-contacts (from the contrib directory of the
org-mode git repo, with the emacs-snapshot package in Debian), with
the following configuration:
(require 'org-contacts)
(setq org-contacts-files '("~/org/contacts.org")
org-capture-templates '(("c" "contacts" entry (file "~/org/contacts.org")
"* %(mu4e-view-snarf-from 'name)
:PROPERTIES:
:EMAIL %(mu4e-view-snarf-from 'email)
:NICK:
:BIRTHDAY:
:END:\n\n"))
org-contacts-completion-ignore-case t)
Capturing contacts works fine (they show up in the file), but I cannot
recall/complete contacts in message mode: when I
M-: (org-contacts-complete-name)
(on eg a To: field), I get
(64 64 #[771 "\301?\303\300$)\207" [nil nil completion-ignore-case
complete-with-action] 8 "
(fn STRING PRED ACTION)"])
I wonder if this is a known bug, a result of some invalid combination
of versions, or me not using org-contacts in the way it was intended.
Best,
Tamas
[O] short section titles in TOC
Hi,
Is it possible to have a short version of a section title in the table
of contents? Eg in LaTeX, one can use
\section[Suggestions]{Suggestions for discussion}
and the first one would show up in the TOC. I was wondering if one
can do this in org-mode.
Best,
Tamas
