org-mode

I'm just getting started with org-mode and so far I love it. I've seen that it is possible to insert R in the org-mode file and execute it upon export. But I have some trouble getting org-babel (the code embedding) to generate the plot I'm interested in and embed the resulting image instead of the code or the output from running the code. So far I've got this to work: #+BABEL: :session *R* :results output graphics :exports both #+begin_src R :file img.pdf :results output graphics :session *R* hist(rnorm(100)) #+end_src #\includegraphics{img.pdf} But it's not as nice as it could be. First it

I would like to have a column in an org mode table that is a simple monotonically increasing value, i.e. the row number such that wnen I insert and remove random rows the index value adjusts automagically. I suspect that this should be simple but it would appear I am making it way too difficult. Mind you, I am a novice at using Emacs and org mode to build spreadsheets. So a simple example spreadsheet where there are two columns, one the row index value and the other some fixed value, would be a perfect answer. This example uses @# to get the row number. Similarly, $# returns the column number.

I'm using emacs23 on Ubuntu 32-bit 10.04/10.10 with GNOME and Compiz. Pressing M-RET in an org-mode plain list in Emacs (GUI) inserts a new item. Pressing M-Up moves the item up in the list. These keys don't work as expected in emacs -nw under Terminator and gnome-terminal . The M-Up key does nothing, whereas the M-RET key simply moves the cursor down one line and indents the position. The keys also don't "work" in xterm , which inserts \215 instead. Pressing ESC-RET or ESC-Up instead produces the expected functionality. The same problems exist if I run emacs -nw on a headless server accessed

In org-mode, I know how to create a todo and use the timestamp so that it is scheduled for today. How do I schedule it for tomorrow? Unfortunately I don't know Elisp and don't have time right now to learn it. Here is my .emacs file: (setq org-capture-templates '(("t" "Agenda Todo" entry (file+headline "c:/Org/agenda.org" "Agenda") "\n\n** TODO %?\nSCHEDULED: <%<%Y-%m-%d %a>>" :empty-lines 1) I would need to replace the %m-%d %a with a value incremented by one day. Working off Juancho's answer* I was able to come up with a valid timestamp. The following will provide an org-created timestamp. "[

I have been using Emacs 24.4 for all my math/scientific notes. org-latex-preview is fantastic for this! But recently, I upgraded to a macbook pro with retina display, and I now see that all my equations in org-mode are... fuzzy. Is there a setting I can change to up-res these? Here is a screenshot: Thanks! A couple of years back, I decided to fix this and wrote a patch to add dvisvgm as a render option for latex previews. While this worked great, I never submitted it (no time or knowledge on how to officially patch org). Today, I was thrilled to discover that org-mode v9.0.6, now has this

When using Org-mode and its LaTeX export BibTeX or Biblatex is often used to handle references. In that case the LaTeX command \printbibliography is often included in the org file. \printbibliography is placed in the org file where LaTeX is supposed to write out the reference list. What \printbibliography does is to insert a LaTeX header along with the reference list. In most cases \printbibliography is placed at the end of the org file simply because in most documents the reference list is to be placed last. This means that \printbibliography will be included under the last heading in the org

I want to generate strings containing Org-mode text without actually hard-coding the syntax. For example i want to run a function such as (org-generate (org-generate-heading "heading" (org-generate-plain-list '("foo" "bar" "baz"))) and it will return: * heading - foo - bar - baz In other words, i want to create Org-mode documents of arbitrary complexity without micromanaging syntactic features like asterisks and indentation, only via calling functions with parameters, that return some Org objects. Is it possible to do that? Maybe via org-element ? lawlist INITIAL (March 14, 2014): First rough
