Re: [O] Extending the Org syntax by a custom exporter - how to do it?

2014-11-26 Thread John Kitchin
I played around with this a little. Here is a minimal kind of example with a custom exporter that handles quiz blocks separately. The quiz block can have some attributes defined that get used in rendering the HTML. Is this along the lines of what you are trying to do? * A custom type #+BEGIN_EXA

Could you remind us of what you are trying to do? It seems like you may not necessarily need custom elements (although that could be useful). For example, you can put a lot of information in properties of a headline. You might be interested in this: http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2014/11/
