Re: [Orgmode] FR: make LaTeX export recognize LANGUAGE option

2009-05-06 Thread Carsten Dominik

H Kevin,

maybe the easiest would be

#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[nynorsk,english]{babel}

However, this will be inserted directly before \begin{document}
which might be too late if what you say about inserting early
is right.

Maybe we need to change the insertion point of these additions.
Any comments by the LaTeX-using people here?

Hi,

I couldn't find any references to babel in the mailing list nor in
org-latex.el. I have various latex export class headers, but I
sometimes write in English and sometimes in Norwegian, and this is not
bound to the classes (beamer, ps-article, pdf-article). As it is, I've
had

\usepackage[nynorsk,english]{babel}

in all my class headers, and then eg.
\selectlanguage{nynorsk}
in the org file.

But before printout I've had to go into the .tex-file and remove
whatever language I'm not using, deleting the .aux file and rerunning
latex, since Apacite doesn't recognize the \selectlanguage within the
literature list (eg. I get English in and from and such).

So, I was wondering if we could have an option to let

#+LANGUAGE: nn

make the header say

\usepackage[nynorsk]{babel}

etc., so that, at least for monolingual documents, one doesn't have to
do all this mucking about with \selectlanguage and deleting .aux
files.

If implemented, I think I might've read somewhere that babel should be
loaded early on in the header, but other people probably know this
better than me. (I guess it shouldn't be too hard to put it on the
line right after \documentclass ?)

Possibly #+LANGUAGE: nn en could be used for multilingual documents,
but that seems low priority to me.

Part of the problem is that if you have previous runs, the aux file and such
are going to be present and they will need cleaning up no matter what you
do at the org level.

Purely at the org level, there may be a better way, but this is what I
came up with: you can hack around this by defining your own
class. E.g. in your org file you say

#+LaTeX_CLASS: myclass

and you add a definition for ``myclass'' to org-export-latex-classes,
something like this (I just copied the ``article'' entry, modified the name
and added the babel stuff - and you probably still need to add
the \selectlanguage more-or-less by hand, but I guess you can do it at the
org level):

(add-to-list 'org-export-latex-classes
  '(myclass
 \\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\\usepackage[nynorsk]{babel}
\\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\\usepackage{graphicx}
\\usepackage{longtable}
\\usepackage{hyperref}
 (\\section{%s} . \\section*{%s})
 (\\subsection{%s} . \\subsection*{%s})
 (\\subsubsection{%s} . \\subsubsection*{%s})
 (\\paragraph{%s} . \\paragraph*{%s})
 (\\subparagraph{%s} . \\subparagraph*{%s})))

Does this help?
