I had to deal with this last spring. I finally got things working again with mbsync, msmtp, mu/mu4e, and for the oauth stuff, pizauth. This combination has worked well for me ever since. Most of the details can be found at https://brettpresnell.com/post/email/ I am still using an early ve

Multi-line headers with longtable

2022-05-13 Thread Brett Presnell
Sorry I sent this twice. Forgot that I was subscribed from my member.fsf.org email address. I have come upon a problem with export of multi-line table headers in long (multi-page) tables. I can't imagine that this hasn't come up before, but I wasn't able to google up any other reports, so ...

I can verify that the :post work-around suggested by Chuck and implemented by Jeremie works as advertised. FWIW, I would certainly prefer to see the implementation org-babel-R-write-object-command changed so that the work-around wouldn't be necessary. Thank you to both Chuck and Jeremie for loo

na=\"nil\" in ob-R.elo

2021-01-14 Thread Brett Presnell
Probably a silly question, but in ob-R.el, what is the reason for setting na=\"nil\" when defining org-babel-R-write-object-command? Is this an elisp compatibility thing? Regardless, I generally (always?) want na=\"\" for this, so I am finding all those "nil"s very annoying, and the only way th

In the following table, the last row gives the number of empty cells following the last nonempty cell in each column (except the first column of course). I would like to create a TBLFM formula that does this calculation for me automatically. Some time ago I tried using org-lookup-last and org-lo

If I export a table with #+ATTR_LATEX: :environment longtable #+NAME: mytable then the beginning of the longtable environment (in the exported latex file) has, e.g., \begin{longtable}{lrrl} \label{mytable} \\ \hline This is a problem, because of the extra space created by the \\. I tried to f
