I was wondering what is the planned scope of this work? I would like to be able to write an article in org-mode then create a LaTeX document using the following transformations which should be configurable: Headings * ** *** and so on should be converted to the appropriate {chapter} {section} tags *bold* /italic/ markup should be tagged Lists, numbered and unnumbered be converted into the appropriate LaTeX structures. I wrote a Perl script to do most of this work but I don't know enough Lisp to write a similar program. Who is doing the work on LaTeX export? What features will you support? How configurable will it be? Many thanks Charles P.S. I am working on an update to my org-mode and GTD article. ------------------------------------------- Charles Cave Sydney, NSW, Australia Email: charles_cave@optusnet.com.au -------------------------------------------
