New markup for revising manuscripts

New markup for revising manuscripts

[Doyley, Marvin M.]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 459 bytes --]

Hi there,

When revising manuscripts, I usually highlight the changes (response to reviewer) in red. I use typically do this as follows:
(1) #+latex_header: \newcommand{\response}[1]{\textcolor{red}{#1}}
(2) \response{changes)

Is there a more elegant way to do this ?  It would be nice if I could change the color of the select text in both org and the exported latex file to red. Seeing the highlighted text in org would be a huge plus.

Thanks
M

Depending on how you actually enter these revisions in Org, you could
probably make org-annotate do this. The link is on the text to change,
the annotation is the revised text, and then set
org-annotate-latex-export-function to a custom function that might look
like:

(defun org-annotate-export-latex-response (path desc)
  (format "%s\\response{%s}" (or desc "") path))

Maybe give that a shot?

I use this macro to highlight text in html/latex(pdf):

#+MACRO: COLOR @@html:<span style="color:
$1">$2</span>@@@@latex:\textcolor{$1}{$2}@@

This is from https://github.com/fniessen/org-macros/blob/master/README.org

Example use:
{{{COLOR(red, This information is important.)}}}

It doesn't though highlight the text in red in org-mode.

You can .... wait for it... make a colored link ;):
http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2016/11/04/New-link-features-in-org-9/#org1bc1061

The example there has an html export defined, but you could as easily
define a latex exporter. It has some limitations, like it might not
reliably work on multiple lines, and you would not want to "highlight"
across elements (or the latex will get ugly and probably not work).

I have been working on some ways to get persistent highlighting using
overlays for a similar purpose:
http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2016/11/10/Persistent-highlighting-in-Emacs/

so far I only can get reliable output to html. Latex seems possible, again
if you don't highlight across too many elements. It is a work in progress
here: https://github.com/jkitchin/scimax/blob/master/ov-highlighter.el

Towards the bottom of
https://github.com/jkitchin/scimax/blob/master/cm-mods.el I was working on
some ways to use the criticmarkup  in conjunction with git diffs to
automatically make these kinds of diffs.

I can't say I am fully satisified by any of these solutions (that is why
there are so many of them ;)

I don't know about elegant but my approach is to subvert the +...+
emphasis markers.  These usually indicate strike-through, something I
never use.  Instead, I have +some text+ be highlighted and exported to
LaTeX and HTML as such.

To achieve this, I customise a number org variables.  It took me some
time to find how I actually did this as it's been part of my org setup
for years, so much so that I almost thought it was default behaviour!
In any case, the following is an elided extract from my customised
variables:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (custom-set-variables
   '(org-emphasis-alist
     (quote
      (("*" bold)
       ("/" italic)
       ("_" underline)
       ("=" org-verbatim verbatim)
       ("~" org-code verbatim)
       ("+" highlight))))
   '(org-html-text-markup-alist
     (quote
      ((bold . "<b>%s</b>")
       (code . "<code>%s</code>")
       (italic . "<i>%s</i>")
       (strike-through . "<span style=\"background-color: #ffff80;\">%s</span>")
       (underline . "<span class=\"underline\">%s</span>")
       (verbatim . "<code>%s</code>"))))
   '(org-latex-text-markup-alist
     (quote
      ((bold . "\\textbf{%s}")
       (code . protectedtexttt)
       (italic . "\\emph{%s}")
       (strike-through . "\\hl{%s}")
       (underline . "\\uline{%s}")
       (verbatim . protectedtexttt)))))
#+end_src 

There are basically copies of the defaults with the strike-through
element changed.

Now I can write +highlighted text+ which appears as you wish in both
HTML and LaTeX exports as well as on the screen (customise the highlight
face to get what you want on screen).  For LaTeX, you also have to

  (add-to-list 'org-latex-packages-alist '("" "soul"))

which provides the \hl{} LaTeX command.

HTH,
eric

Hi John,

Thanks for the info on making colored links, this will definitely help (i.e., show the changes in org). The only snag is how do I export the colored link automatically as \textcolor{red}{comments} during org export ?

Hi John,

I make a colored link [[response: comments]], that makes the text following the response keyword red. The only snag is that when I export to latex I get [[response:comment]] rather than \textcolor{red}{comment}. Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong ?

Cheers,
M

PS.  Enclose is the code that I wrote based on your blog


(org-link-set-parameters
 "response"
 :export (lambda (keyword desc format)
           (cond
            ((eq 'latex)
             (format "\\textcolor{red}{%s}" keyword))))
 :face '(:foreground "red"))

Re: New markup for revising manuscripts

[John Kitchin]

it looks like you forgot to include format in the (eq ..) sexp.

(org-link-set-parameters
 "response"
 :export (lambda (keyword desc format)
           (cond
            ((eq 'latex format)
             (format "\\textcolor{red}{%s}" keyword))))
 :face '(:foreground "red"))

I don't know about elegant but my approach is to subvert the +...+
emphasis markers.  These usually indicate strike-through, something I
never use.  Instead, I have +some text+ be highlighted and exported to
LaTeX and HTML as such.

To achieve this, I customise a number org variables.  It took me some
time to find how I actually did this as it's been part of my org setup
for years, so much so that I almost thought it was default behaviour!
In any case, the following is an elided extract from my customised
variables:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (custom-set-variables
   '(org-emphasis-alist
     (quote
      (("*" bold)
       ("/" italic)
       ("_" underline)
       ("=" org-verbatim verbatim)
       ("~" org-code verbatim)
       ("+" highlight))))
   '(org-html-text-markup-alist
     (quote
      ((bold . "<b>%s</b>")
       (code . "<code>%s</code>")
       (italic . "<i>%s</i>")
       (strike-through . "<span style=\"background-color: #ffff80;\">%s</span>")
       (underline . "<span class=\"underline\">%s</span>")
       (verbatim . "<code>%s</code>"))))
   '(org-latex-text-markup-alist
     (quote
      ((bold . "\\textbf{%s}")
       (code . protectedtexttt)
       (italic . "\\emph{%s}")
       (strike-through . "\\hl{%s}")
       (underline . "\\uline{%s}")
       (verbatim . protectedtexttt)))))
#+end_src 

There are basically copies of the defaults with the strike-through
element changed.

Now I can write +highlighted text+ which appears as you wish in both
HTML and LaTeX exports as well as on the screen (customise the highlight
face to get what you want on screen).  For LaTeX, you also have to

  (add-to-list 'org-latex-packages-alist '("" "soul"))

which provides the \hl{} LaTeX command.

HTH,
eric

Thanks.  I use this all the time.  I did try org-annotate but it was too
clumsy for my needs.

Of course, the day will come when I suddenly need to use strike-through
desperately! :-)

Re: New markup for revising manuscripts

[John Kitchin]

This is probably not feasible with links. that is also a challenge with
Eric's markup approach. One way is to use visual wrapping so whole
paragraphs are actually one line. Another is to use some kind of custom block.
It has been a while since I tried this: http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2013/11/30/Custom-directives/

Multiline mostly works with criticmarks using multiline fontlock. The
nice thing about this is that it is still plain text markup, but relies
on font-lock which can be slow, and or unreliable in my experience.

This was one reason I started looking at the overlay approach in
ov-highlighter. It nicely manages multiline comments, but is not part of
org markup though. A downside is you have to store the overlays in the
document to get persistence, and it is easily breakable if others edit
the document without using the package.

Re: New markup for revising manuscripts

[Doyley, Marvin M.]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 9847 bytes --]

Hi John,

I like the idea of special block that definitely solve the multi-line problem. But I would need to write an latex exporter for the block, how challenging would that be ? I am still learning lisp :)

Cheers,

Yes, multiline highlighting is a challenge.

I finally (a few years ago now) bit the bullet and moved from my old
skool 72 char filled/wrapped lines (I started programming in F66 on
punch cards back in the stone age ;-)) to single line paragraphs with
visual-line-mode and org-indent.  Highlighting (and other markers) now
work as I would like although obviously limited to a single paragraph.

The only negative is the presentation of wide tables where I have to
switch back to non-visual line mode and then back again when I move away
from the table but I have a keybinding to toggle this so not too
painful...  More positively, revision control is cleaner as there is no
reformatting of paragraphs.

You could use the mdframed LaTeX package, as in the attached
example.  Of course, this does not highlight the paragraphs in the org
file but only in the output.

Org will export any #+begin_XXX ... #+end_XXX to \begin{XXX}...\end{XXX}
in LaTeX export.

Re: New markup for revising manuscripts

[John Kitchin]

probably no lisp required. See the post I referenced. It is all done in
the org-file there.

Hi Eric,

I really appreciate this. I will try it out too.

I don't know about elegant but my approach is to subvert the +...+
emphasis markers.  These usually indicate strike-through, something I
never use.  Instead, I have +some text+ be highlighted and exported to
LaTeX and HTML as such.

To achieve this, I customise a number org variables.  It took me some
time to find how I actually did this as it's been part of my org setup
for years, so much so that I almost thought it was default behaviour!
In any case, the following is an elided extract from my customised
variables:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (custom-set-variables
   '(org-emphasis-alist
     (quote
      (("*" bold)
       ("/" italic)
       ("_" underline)
       ("=" org-verbatim verbatim)
       ("~" org-code verbatim)
       ("+" highlight))))
   '(org-html-text-markup-alist
     (quote
      ((bold . "<b>%s</b>")
       (code . "<code>%s</code>")
       (italic . "<i>%s</i>")
       (strike-through . "<span style=\"background-color: #ffff80;\">%s</span>")
       (underline . "<span class=\"underline\">%s</span>")
       (verbatim . "<code>%s</code>"))))
   '(org-latex-text-markup-alist
     (quote
      ((bold . "\\textbf{%s}")
       (code . protectedtexttt)
       (italic . "\\emph{%s}")
       (strike-through . "\\hl{%s}")
       (underline . "\\uline{%s}")
       (verbatim . protectedtexttt)))))
#+end_src

There are basically copies of the defaults with the strike-through
element changed.

Now I can write +highlighted text+ which appears as you wish in both
HTML and LaTeX exports as well as on the screen (customise the highlight
face to get what you want on screen).  For LaTeX, you also have to

  (add-to-list 'org-latex-packages-alist '("" "soul"))

Hi John and Eric,

I decided to adopt your approaches, thanks for the suggestions.  So I can use either the response: or ++ to highlight changes in our manuscripts.

Cheers,
M

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(org-link-set-parameters
 "response"
 :export (lambda (keyword desc format)
           (cond
            ((eq 'latex format)
             (format "\\textcolor{red}{%s}" keyword))))
 :face '(:foreground "red"))
#+END_SRC


#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-emphasis-alist
      (cons '("+" '(:foreground "red"))
            (delete* "+" org-emphasis-alist :key 'car :test 'equal)))

(custom-set-variables
  '(org-latex-text-markup-alist '((bold . "\\textbf{%s}")
					 (code . verb)
					 (italic . "\\emph{%s}")
					 (strike-through . "\\textcolor{red}{%s}")
					 (underline . "\\uline{%s}")
					 (verbatim . protectedtexttt))))

#+end_src
