Hi Nick, thanks for the response! Actually in the code that I had pasted, the emacs --batch call is all on one line (so no need to escape newlines there). I tried your code with both
orglib=/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/org
and
orglib=$HOME/elisp/org-mode/lisp
but got 
Cannot open load file: org-macs
in both cases I also added a line, 
--eval "(load \"/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/lisp/org/org.elc\")" \
to replace the --load option but same deal.

I do in fact have org-macs in my 'orglib' directories so I tried loading them explicitly (with multiple --load specifications), but it still doesn't work (Still "Cannot open load file" pointing to some org file or subst-ksc, depending on how many or in what order org .el files are loaded). Any more ideas?

Thanks...!

Stephen

Did you escape the newlines? If you cut-n-pasted from the
org-export-as-latex-batch help, you fell into the trap :-) Maybe the
documentation of the function could be changed to add the backslashes?

The following script (I call it org-to-latex) works fine on linux:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#! /bin/bash

orglib=$HOME/elisp/org-mode/lisp
emacs   --batch \
        --load=$orglib/org.elc \
        --eval "(setq org-export-headline-levels 2)" \
        --visit=$1 --funcall org-export-as-latex-batch
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

You can add a loop in it too - or do the loop by hand:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
for x in *.org
do
        org-to-latex $x
done
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

HTH,
Nick
