I've used beamer, latex and emacs for many years but am finding that none of the examples on the web work totally s intended in my attempts to use org-mode with beamer. I have copied verbatim several examples such as from here: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-beamer/tutorial.html#sec-4_1 When I run them I get the following problems - plus others I will go into later if necessary: 1. The title page does not have a title - just the date. When I check the latex file created from the org file I notice that a \maketitle command occurs outside a frame environment - whereas in beamer I normally use \titlepage inside a frame environment to create the titlepage. 2. \alert command does not work - even with the additions to .emacs suggested here: http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg21507.html (And there are no errors in running the .emacs file) Always the @ symbol appears in the latex created from org as @. I wonder whether there is some configuration I am missing. Other aspects of the slides are normal - bullets and frametitles specifically.
