Remove orgx files

Remove orgx files

[Nathan Neff]

I've recently started using org-mode to export to html,
and I have empty .orgx files laying around in my directory.

Is there a way have the publish routine delete these .orgx files after
exporting,
or is there a way to specify that they should be created in ~/tmp or
something like that?

I can manually do it or put it in my batch script, but it seems like something
that should be done by org-mode, and I'm just missing something.

Thanks,

--Nate

it should be fixed now.  .orgx files are no longer kept anywhere.

Thanks for spotting this,

Hi Bastien,

I have not looked at you patch.  But the orgx files are produced for
index and sitemap (I think) purposes.  If a site has many files and the
index get recreated after republishing a single changed file, the orgx
files would be needed.

Cheers.

Of course, you're right.

Org now stores .orgx files as dotted files: .file.orgx to hide them in
the current directory.

Also, I've committed a change so that theindex.org is produced directly
instead of producing theindex.inc and including it in theindex.org.  It
feels more simple and this way theindex.org always get republished when
needed.

Best,

Yes.  I think the include mechanism was so that people could write
their own wrapper file in their own style around the index.
I am CCing Stefan who was the driving force behind the index development,
he might have a comment.

I don't see Stefan in CC: -- maybe you added him in BCC?

In any case, I let Stefan DTRT here.

Dear Bastian,
dear Carsten,

we have just re-organized parts of our software documentation (Org-mode exlusively, of course) and I had a "colophon" section in mind with all Org source files and a short description of our workflow (it might be ready in a few days). Here is a link to the index page:

http://www.nf.mpg.de/vhist/doc/usage/theindex.html 

demonstrating the idea behind the include mechanism.

Warm regards,
Stefan
