Hi Everyone,

Just a quick question:
I'm looking to improve my emacs specifically my orgmode skills.
I thought I read somewhere the orgmode manual is included with emacs / 
org or downloadable as org document?

It seems contained in \home\emacs-23.1\info\info
However when I open this file with file->open file
the outlook is totally different than opening it via
menu-> Org-> Documentation-> Info Documentation
Is the web / html version of the manual made by publishing Info 
Documentation? Can someone confirm?

I had a look at Publishing and the 2 contained sample configurations.
Will following these examples give the left-hand scrollable TOC like 
it's visible on the http://orgmode.org/manual page?

If you have any other links or tutorials covering publishing / LateX, 
much obliged.

Thanks a lot!

Erwin

you may look at the org.texi file, in the doc directory of org-V.ersion,
(zip? tgz?) and convert it to the format you want. 
man texinfo
I believe in the doc directory the manual is already in pdf.

yes because the "org" file is in info format
and Emacs does "convert" it to a browsable 
format (is like viewing a html source file  or displaying
it in a browser, pretty different, don't you think? ;-)

of course.

I think it depends on the css. Have a look on it ;-)

the LaTeX tutorial is missing, but the manual seems pretty complete
to me
cheers

If you didn't know, you can easily get the css by doing View source" in 
your browser then searching for the style sheet. In org's case this is 
http://orgmode.org/org.css. You can open this in a browser window and 
then save it somewhere.

This is a very useful technique for copying other people's web site 
styling:)
