The ESS team added support for it some months back [2] and they've been working on it more recently even [3]. It seemed natural to investigate Babel support for julia and after quite a bit of fiddling with ob-R.el I believe I've sorted out the major pieces: git://github.com/gjkerns/ob-julia.git There's an "ob-julia.el" file which is the meat, then "ob-julia-doc.org" and "ob-julia-beamer.org" files for testing, plus an "intro-julia.org" file in case you're new to julia and would like to learn more. For testing you'd need a recent installation of julia [2] and you'd need an almost bleeding-edge version of ESS [4]. By the way, it was written under the development branch of Org so if you haven't updated recently you might need that too. LaTeX/HTML/Beamer export is working, C-c C-c evaluation of code chunks, plotting figures (need the Winston package), etc. Session evaluation is required at least for the time being. If you see ways to improve it I'd appreciate any feedback.

Thanks for sharing! Would you be willing to contribute ob-julia.el to the Org-mode repository? I don't see you listed as an Org-mode contributor (see [1]), so to do so you would likely have to complete the FSF copyright attribution. Please let me (and more importantly Bastien) know if this is something you'd like to do, so we can help get julia support into Org-mode. Additionally, it would be nice for your excellent introduction to be added to worg, and for julia to be listed as a supported babel language (see [2]).

Thanks for the kind words, and I would be happy to contribute to worg. I've been sitting on my hands about worg so far because I'm scared I'm going to break it with something that isn't compatible with the old exporter. In an earlier message Bastien indicated that Org 8.0 might be coming out in a few weeks (thanks, Bastien!) and I've been trying to wait for it patiently. In the meantime, maybe I'll check out the maintenance branch and dig up those old configurations to get the ball rolling on my side. -- Jay ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

It is great to hear that you are finding Babel useful. I shouldn't take too much credit for Babel as the Org-mode community has contributed the bulk of the language-specific back ends which really make Babel work. Also, thanks to Bastien for handling much of the core Babel maintenance as of late. > > >> Additionally, it would be nice for your excellent introduction to be >> added to worg, and for julia to be listed as a supported babel language >> (see [2]). > > > Thanks for the kind words, and I would be happy to contribute to worg. > I've been sitting on my hands about worg so far because I'm scared > I'm going to break it with something that isn't compatible with the > old exporter. This makes sense, however, with worg in a git repo, revisions are easy, so a little trial and error shouldn't cause any lasting damage. > In an earlier message Bastien indicated that Org 8.0 might be coming > out in a few weeks (thanks, Bastien!) and I've been trying to wait for > it patiently. > Waiting is probably the best approach. Unfortunately the FSF assignments generally take on the order of weeks, so there should be no need to rush on the documentation before the code is incorporated. > > In the meantime, maybe I'll check out the maintenance branch and dig > up those old configurations to get the ball rolling on my side. Thanks again, it is very gratifying to see Babel continue to grow even as I have less time personally to work on it.

Can I add it to contrib/babel/langs in org-mode.git right now? http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/tree/contrib/babel/langs For code in contrib/ we don't need authors to assign their copyright to the Free Software Foundation, and support for more languages for Babel is always great. Let me know. Also, if you want to edit Worg, can you send me your public key? To go through the FSF copyright assignment process, please fill in this form: http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/plain/request-assign-future.txt When the FSF confirms it's fine, we will be able to incorporate ob-julia.el into Org's core.
