I've been using emacs + org-mode for ~6 months and haven't done any elisp
hacking beyond a custom .emacs file. I would like to write a custom org-mode
export to markdown to play around with elisp and so that I can write readmes
for my github projects in org-mode. Are there any good tutorials on writing
a custom export?
Thanks, Alex Henning

A couple of things,
1. Github understands org files. README can be written in org mode also.
2. You should look at org-export-generic
[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-export-generic.php] in case
you wish to continue with writing your custom export to markdown.

Hey, this is great! I didn't know this existed. But to be useful for
Markdown (which I'd also like very much), it would need options for
formatting emph and strong regexs (currently '/' and '*' in org-mode,
would need to be '*' and '**' for Markdown) and also links.
I'm not sure what :body-tags-{prefix,suffix} actually do, but that
sounds promising. Link formatting would need to be added, but it seems
like adding a :body-link-address and :body-link-description would pretty
much take care of it.
If this isn't currently doable without patching org-export-generic.el, I
can take a stab at providing such a patch (unless Alex was hankering for
a weekend project :)).
