I'm firmly in the "fail fast and crash loudly" camp. In other words, if there is a problem, it should make itself known at the earliest possible moment in a way that makes clear that it needs to be fixed ASAP. I encounter many folks that disagree with that position, but usually only until one of those problems that fail to clearly announce themselves causes them to lose important work later on.

Re: [O] Problem exporting code
Hi Thorsten, Let's assume that you don't use ELPA for installing Org. When installing a recent Org, either from an archive or from a git clone, you only need to add the correct load-path, as described in the manual -- for example: (add-to-list 'load-path "~/path/to/orgdir/lisp") > In this thread, I was told that I'm causing 'a future train wreck' with > my habit to simply trash the org folder from the Emacs installation and > replace it with a symlink to the git version in my home dir (I had > enough trouble with mixed installs, and this seems to avoid them - > having only the git version, no Elpa and no Emacs version).

I recently experienced some casual trouble when updating Org-mode from
Git (I simply updated at a moment, when actual org.el wouldn't load due to a
bug that was to be fixed soon fixed soon. Here is the related thread on
the mailing list:
[[gnus:nntp%2Bnews.gmane.org:gmane.emacs.orgmode#87ehhmnqu6@googlemail.com][Email
from Thorsten Jolitz: Re: {BUG} `org-load-noerror-m]]
In this thread, I was told that I'm causing 'a future train wreck' with
my habit to simply trash the org folder from the Emacs installation and
replace it with a symlink to the git version in my home dir (I had
enough trouble with mixed installs, and this seems to avoid them -
having only the git version, no Elpa and no Emacs version).
Now I was told there will be troubles with the autoloads, and I would
like to understand better what the possible implications are. I do 'make
autoloads' in the git version of org, so there is a loaddefs.el. There
is of course another loaddefs.el in the Emacs directory that is not
updated when I replace the Emacs org folder with a symlink to the
(slightly different) git version.
Is there really 'big trouble' possible due to this? Should I run 'make
autoloads' in the Emacs installation directory again?
(2)
> Also, I consider outline.el to be completely unusable, and Org is

When I started with Emacs, I had one .emacs init-file that became more
and more chaotic over time (and a real pain for navigation and
maintainment). Then I started to use a multi-file set-up, first Elisp
files, then using .org files via the starter-kit.
Now I know about M-x occur and recently discovered that
outline-minor-mode enables me to define my own outline-regexps in an .el
file, so I'm back to the start - using one big /.emacs.d/init.el, but
this time with all the outline functionality.
Here is a short excerpt from the init.el, showing that my
outline-headings just look like outcommented org-headings:
,
| ;; * Recovery from Problems
|
| ;; ** Debugging
|
| (when section-debugging (message "99 Debugging...")
|
| ...
|
| (message "99 Debugging... Done"))
|
| ;; Local Variables:
| ;; coding: utf-8
| ;; mode: emacs-lisp
| ;; eval: (outline-minor-mode)
| ...
| ;; outline-regexp: ";; [*]+ "
| ;; End:
`
Except for the extraordinary weird key-bindings of outline-minor-mode
(e.g. C-c @ C-n), that I still did not manage to override (with the
usual Org-mode bindings), I'm very satisfied with this set-up, it gives
me the best of both worlds (full outline functionality and the very
simple and direct approach of having just one init.el).
Why do you consider outline(-minor-mode) as completely unusable? And how
would you replace it in my use case with org(-struct?)? I'm asking just
out of curiosity, and to learn a bit more, there are no urgent problems
to be solved on my side here.

This is a wrong move. Also, the NEWS entry in
http://vgoulet.act.ulaval.ca/pub/emacs/NEWS-mac suggests that Org's
maintainers are recommending to install Org as an external package,
which is a false statement too.
I just wrote to Vincent asking for more details and offering to help
to ease his life as a maintainer for this Emacs distribution.

The distribution of Org as a built-in package in Emacs is *not* the
problem.
Installing Org through git or through .tar.gz/.zip on top of the Emacs
distribution does not create problems if you follow the instructions
in the manual -- I made a special effort to simplify them.
The real problem is the ELPA distribution, and this problem is due to
the package system not being clever enough to handle both a pre-built
and a add-on package in all configs.
So I'm seriously questioning the value of having Org as an ELPA
package and I'm thinking of removing this possibility until Emacs
package install is fixed (Achim is working on this, but it looks
like the change will not be in Emacs anytime soon.)

The pre-built version is not recommended because it does not need to
be -- it is pre-built :) When people write to the list, I recommend
them to use the latest .tar.gz/.zip or the Git version because this
version often fix the bug they are suffering from.

Yes, and installing the .tar.gz/.zip file is even easier!

There are many things I don't like with the current packaging system:
- The message when downloading is confusing ("package contacting...").
- AFAIK users don't have the choice but to have the .el files
compiled, which will make backtraces unreadable for bug reporters.
Also, if Org is not in Emacs anymore, users will not be able to add
(org-agenda ...) in their .emacs.el -- they will have to initialize
the package system in .emacs.el before they can call Org functions.
*We* will have to tell them...
> I'm sure there are reasons for wanting Org to be distributed with Emacs.
> Would it be OK for me to ask on the list what they are?
I don't have figures, but I think Emacs is the first "channel" through
wich people happen to discover Org. It is advertized on the Emacs
homepage, it is in the Emacs manuals, etc.
Also, I consider outline.el to be completely unusable, and Org is
first an enhanced version of it, which Emacs strongly needs. I plan
to push so that files in Emacs use org.el when they use outline.el.
I understand this might be tempting to remove Org from Emacs if it
causes installation problems... tempting for long-time power users who
know how to install it, tempting for maintainers who don't want to
deal with the (heavy) burden of sync'ing with Emacs, and tempting for
Emacs maintainers who don't want such a big module in the codebase...
but this would be a wrong move. The right thing to do is to simplify
Org so that requiring org.el does not take too long, and so that
installing it on top of a pre-built install does not create problems.
If removing the ELPA channel is the way to go temporarily, let's
think about it seriously!
All best,

In my case, version 1.23a was provided by Aquamacs: /Applications/Writing/Aquamacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/aquamacs/htmlize.el It's been a while since I've used this machine, so I'd updated to the latest Aquamacs, but it looks like Aquamacs itself hasn't seen a release in over a year.

Do you still have =(require 'org-install)= in your .emacs? ETA: just checked and you do. I checked as I had an issue with emacs not using the git version of org because I stupidly had =(require 'org-install)= before my load paths! The only thing that stuck out to me was this: =(add-to-list 'load-path "~/share/emacs/site-lisp/org" load-path)= Is that the proper syntax? Mine (and just checked the org manual) features this: =(add-to-list 'load-path "~/path/to/orgdir/lisp")=. I know nil about elisp (see what I did there?), but does that extra "load-path" at the end of the argument do anything?

Re: [O] Problem exporting code
I believe I've figured it out. I must have an old version of 'htmlize' installed somewhere, I 'edebug' traced through the code and fell through to this part: (when lang (if (featurep 'xemacs) (require 'htmlize) (require 'htmlize nil t)) (when (not (fboundp 'htmlize-region-for-paste)) ;; we do not have htmlize.el, or an old version of it (setq lang nil) (message "htmlize.el 1.34 or later is needed for source code formatting"))) I couldn't manage to set up my load-path to load htmlize 'properly' (is htmlize not able to be loaded via 'load-path' and 'require'?), but after downloading htmlize 1.43 and adding the following to my .emacs, I seem to be in business again: (load-file "~/share/emacs/site-lisp/htmlize/htmlize.el") Thanks everyone.

Argh, forgot my platform details - I'm using: Either org-mode 7.9.3d or 7.8.11 (same results) Aquamacs 2.4 (but I saw the same result using Emacs on a Linux box) Aquamacs is based on GNU Emacs 23.3.50.1. -Ken On Sun, Jan 20, 2013 at 11:36 PM, John Hendy wrote: > On Sun, Jan 20, 2013 at 10:57 PM, Ken Williams wrote: > > > > On Sun, Jan 20, 2013 at 9:15 PM, Eric S Fraga wrote: > >> > >> Ken Williams writes: > >> > >>> Unfortunately, downgrading to 7.8.11 didn't change the behavior - all > >>> code sections are still exported to HTML as class "example". > >>> I also see that on one machine, using 7.9.2, I get the desired >>> class="src src-R"> tag for R code export.
