Subject: Conflict between Org-Mode versions?
Date: Wed, 27 Apr 2011 13:10:55 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <617335.71813.qm@web161902.mail.bf1.yahoo.com> (raw)
Greetings. I'm trying to learn about Org-Mode. My goal is mainly to learn to
use the Babel extension, but I'm trying to get a good feel for Org-Mode before
I do that.
I've been having some difficulties with inconsistencies between the behavior
described in Org-Mode tutorials and the behavior of Org-Mode on my system.
(And yes, I have read the FAQ about this; please bear with me.)
I'm running Emacs 23.2.1 on a Fedora 14 linux (64-bit) system. This version
of Emacs came with Org-Mode 6.x installed.
Having read about the rapid evolution of Org-Mode, I downloaded the latest
stable version, 7.5. I've appended the Org-related portion of my .emacs file.
It appears to me that my local (7.5) version of Org-Mode should supersede the
version (6.x) that came in the Fedora package, i.e., based on the position in
"load-path".
This made things a little saner, but it didn't eliminate the inconsistencies.
I was afraid that, despite the above, there might be some interplay between
the original Org-Mode and the version that I downloaded, so I removed the
entire org directory:
/usr/share/emacs/23.2/lisp/org
Is there something else that I can/should do to make sure that the original
Org-Mode is really gone?
Here are a couple of the inconsistencies to which I've been referring:
(1) When I use C-c C-t to mark a task as DONE, no timestamp appears.
(2) When I use the construct:
[[URL] [description]]
the line does NOT collapse to:
"description"
when I add the closing bracket, and if I export to HTML or PDF, I
get the whole ugly line, brackets and all.
Please understand that I don't have any burning need to solve these exact
problems. I'd just like the tutorial material to work as advertised on my
system.
Thanks for any advice you can provide.
