Your example works fine for me.

[O] special blocks require whitespace

2016-04-13 Thread prayner 
This is probably documented somewhere but I was surprised that I
needed to add some white space in order to get special blocks
recognized as such.
Here is a simple example:

#+Options: num:nil toc:nil
#+TITLE: 
#+AUTHOR: 

#+BEGIN_CENTER
this is not handled correctly
#+END_CENTER
#+BEGIN_CENTER 
but this is
#+END_CENTER

but this is
\end{center}
\end{document}

It's hard to see but the difference between the two examples is that
the 2nd has a single space after the #+BEGIN_CENTER

The behaviour arises from
((looking-at "\\+BEGIN_\\(\\S-+\\)")

This is with org version 8.3.3

Should this be considered a bug?
Please respond directly as well as to the list since I'm way behind with this 
list

Peter

 Am I missing something, or is this a bug?

 #+attr_latex: :options test

 #+begin_aside 
 random 
 #+end_aside

I think Suvayu uncovers something interesting: how do we give a title
to such an admonition (note, warning, tip, sidebar, etc.)?

If we want to export our document to multiple backends, we would be
forced to have:

--8---cut here---start-8---
  #+attr_html: :options {By the way...}
  #+attr_latex: :options {By the way...}
  #+attr_odt: :options {By the way...}
  #+begin_note
  This is a useful note (with a title).
  #+end_note
--8---cut here---end---8---

Wouldn't it make more sense to get the title as part of the admonition,
as Suvayu tried it in his OP?

--8---cut here---start-8---
  #+begin_note :options {By the way...}

Isn't this too stylized?   Wouldn't it rather be

#+end_note

ox-html has not restrictions on attr_html BTW.

If you have something that should be shared across identically across
backends.  For a title I guess you'd use a caption, right?  A macro would
be a quick way to allow solutions once you know the right mapping between
the option element and backend transforming.

Options are read via 

(org-export-read-attribute :attr_latex special-block :options).

As to whether special blocks should support options via a keyword like in
your example, I do not know.  FWIW ox-html also reads attributes for
special blocks via an ATTR_BACKEND line.

I expected it to work because the manual says so, see Special blocks in
LaTeX export in (info (org) LaTeX specific attributes).

A brief quote:

  In LaTeX back-end, special blocks become environments of the same name.
  Value of ‘:options’ attribute will be appended as-is to that
  environment’s opening string.  For example: [...]
