With
Org-mode version 6.36trans (release_6.36.80.gbdfd)
GNU Emacs 24.0.50.3 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.6)
the LaTeX exporter seems to cease to work when encountering a LaTeX
environment. Suppose this minimal org file:
--8<--------------------------snip-------------------------->8---
#+TITLE: Wrapping in Env
/foo/
#+BEGIN_LaTeX
\begin{center}
#+END_LaTeX
/bar/
#+BEGIN_LaTeX
\end{center}
#+END_LaTeX
/baz/
--8<--------------------------snap-------------------------->8---
When exported to LaTeX the relevant part looks like this:
--8<--------------------------snip-------------------------->8---
\emph{foo}
\begin{center}
/bar/
\end{center}
\emph{baz}
--8<--------------------------snap-------------------------->8---
As far as I can see, this happens only if an environment is defined in
the BEGIN/END_LaTeX blocks. Everything between such blocks is exported
literally. I'm pretty sure this once had worked but I'm not sure when
org stopped to export correctly.

This is pretty cool and *almost* what I was about to ask for as well. The only problem I have with it is I need (for specific environments) to pass a parameter to the \begin{xxx} call on latex export. I think what is there is a more than adequate basis for what I am looking to do and I will add my stuff to it and try it out. My question is: Is there a preferred way of doing this? I can do a local enhancement that hard-codes what I am trying to do but would prefer to do this is a more open-ended (even elegant) way. At the end of the day it simply has to work. But I would prefer doing it "right." :) Mark ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

So what you could implement is that if a user writes #+begin_xxx {aa}[bb]{cc} that org-special-blocks will then create \begin{xxx}{aa}[bb]{cc} I think we must ask for the space, to make sure that all old code will work. A patch to org-special-blocks for this goal would be very useful, I think. - Carsten > > Mark > > _______________________________________________ > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode - Carsten ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

Hi Carsten, I actually needed this yesterday, so I'll make a patch and try to send it in the next couple of days. Should anything be done for the HTML exporter if there are arguments?

Hi Chris I can't think of anything useful - unless we do something like #+begin_xxx -largs "{aa}[bb]{cc}" -hargs "aa=\"xxx\" bb=\"uuu\"" and then use the largs for LaTeX and the hargs as additional attributes in the HTML div. But right now I don't see many applications for this in HTML, so I am not sure it is worth the trouble. Maybe just ignore these additional arguments, or put them as a string into some special attribute like <div class="xxx" latex_block_args="{aa}[bb]{cc}"> so that some javascript hacker can do something with these arguments. I am not sure what the right cause of action is, and I would be happy already with a patch that attaches the rest of the line in LaTeX and throws it away in HTML. I am starting to think we should have this package in the core - can I get you to sign the papers with the FSF for your contributions to Org-mode?

I had hoped to start looking at this over the long weekend but had other things grabbing my attention. Now Chris has already submitted a patch for it! Chris, I take it that the following: #+begin_refquote {Albert Einstein} Make things as simple as possible, but no simpler. #+end_refquote would then translate into: \begin{refquote}{Albert Einstein} Make things as simple as possible, but no simpler. \end{refquote} This is exactly what I was looking for.
