I am trying to export information from my org files and am
getting an error every time I run the batch file (Windows XP)

I am starting with a stripped down .emacs file which just sets up
my load path then does the following:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;;		ORG MODE
(require 'org-install)

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org$" . org-mode))

(setq org-log-done 'time)
(setq org-agenda-include-diary t)
(setq org-directory "~/org/")
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
       '(("S" "Schedule for the week plus TODO's"
          ((agenda "")
           (todo "TODO")))))

My batch file looks like this:

c:\emacs-22.3\bin\emacs.exe -batch -l ~/_emacs_org -eval 
'(org-batch-agenda "S")'

When I run this from the command line I get:

Loading c:/Home/emacs-22/precompile.el (source)...
Loading c:/Home/emacs-22/all_org.el (source)...
Loading c:/Home/emacs-22/melston-note-paths.el (source)...
Done loading ~/emacs/all_org
Loading c:/Home/emacs-22/custom.el (source)...
Loading gnus...
Done loading init file
End of file during parsing

I saw this mentioned in the list at gmane but never saw
any resolution for it.  Any ideas?

Mark

This works for me, but it is possible that quoting in a windows
batch file works differently?

The error message looks to me as if there is a parsing error for the - 
eval form.

Carsten,

Thanks.  The quoting was the problem.  I changed the line from what
I had below to:

   c:\emacs-22.3\bin\emacs.exe -batch -l ~/_emacs_org -eval \
     "(org-batch-agenda \"S\")"

and it now works like I expect.

Perhaps there should be somewhere to deal with some of these platform
specific issues so we don't run into them multiple times...

I guess this would be a good FAQ entry.  Would you like to write one?

Carsten,

I'll give it a try.  Mannish already pointed me to Worg.  I installed
git and am trying to get started but am running into a problem with
even using git to get editable files.  It seems I need access to
ssh-keygen which I don't have (being on Windows...)

I'll keep trying (in my spare time) to get this set up.

Mark
