At least for me, indented comments come out in ascii, latex and html exports. Is there an option that turns off that behaviour? I haven't seen one...

If you're actually trying to make the comment not export this seems to work for me 1. first 2. second #+ comment about second item 3. third 4. fourth -Bernt ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

Is this possible? At column 0 - probably not. 1. first 2. second #+ comment about second item #+ Another comment goes here 3. third 4. fourth The #+ comment probably isn't officially supported either... it just happens to work.

It works perfectly. But this leads to me a more general question for all of you emacs experts: comments in my org files typically consist of /less important/ text and so I like to de-emphasise the text by changing the face used (to a light gray, in my case, compared with the default of firebrick). However, for programming, I prefer the default. Can somebody suggest how I can have a different font-lock-comment-face for org-mode files without making a global change? Should I put something in the org-mode hook? Or even on a per-file basis? I've tried using Emacs local variables but haven't found the right incantation... :( Any suggestions more than welcome!

Hi Eric, I don't know how to change `font-lock-comment-face' on a per-buffer level. What you can do though (I think) is use the function `font-lock-add- keywords' to add your own regular expression for matching comments and specify an arbitrary font for this match. For example (untested): (font-lock-add-keywords 'org-mode '(("^[ \t]*#.*" 0 my-org-comment-face prepend))) - Carsten ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

You can always add a function to one of the org-export-preprocess-... hooks. However, if you are not careful, you might remove something like #!/bin/sh in a source code block, or some normal text where, #25 starts a new line by accident. It may be relatively safe to look for # followed by space, or lines that have only "#" ad the only nonwhite character on a line. Something like this might work (untested) (add-hook 'org-export-preprocess-before-backend-specifics-hook (lambda () (goto-char (point-min)) (while (re-search-forward "^[ \t]+#\\([ \t]*$\\| .*$\\)\n?" nil t) (org-if-unprotected-at (match-beginning 1) (replace-match ""))))) HTH - Carsten ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread
