Greetings,
I am trying to modify ox-md.el. I do not know too much emacs lisp so please
bear with me.
Hypothetically, if I want to modify the exporter to add a "THIS DOCUMENT
BY: " at the beginning, could I do:
(defun org-md-template (contents info)
"Return complete document string after Markdown conversion.
CONTENTS is the transcoded contents string. INFO is a plist used
as a communication channel."
(concat "THIS DOCUMENT BY: " (plist-get info :author) "\n" contents)
)
However, I get an error:
org-md-template: Wrong type argument: characterp, #("Stephen
What is the output type of plist-get? Not a string?
Thanks,
Stephen

:author contains a secondary string. You need to turn it into the string
with, e.g., `org-export-data'.

Thank you for the help. I think I can start hacking something together now
that will do what I want it to do.
