is it possible to export a list of custom blocks?

is it possible to export a list of custom blocks?

[Stephen J. Barr]

I have a document that has a lot of definitions defined as custom
blocks, eg.

    #+LABEL: defn:my-great-definition
    #+ATTR_LATEX: :options [My Great Definition]
    #+begin_definition
    Blah blah.....
    #+end_definition


Would it be possible to export to .tex a file that has all of the
definitions in sequence?

Thanks,
Stephen

It seems to work out of the box, but maybe I don't understand your question:

#+LABEL: defn:my-great-definition
#+ATTR_LATEX: :options [My Great Definition]
#+begin_definition
Blah blah.....
#+end_definition

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(org-export-as 'latex)
#+END_SRC

#+begin_example

It seems to work out of the box, but maybe I don't understand your question:

\begin{definition}[My Great Definition]
\label{defn:my-great-definition}
Blah blah\ldots{}..
\end{definition}

\begin{verbatim}
(org-export-as 'latex)
\end{verbatim}

Re: is it possible to export a list of custom blocks?

[Stephen J. Barr]

My apologies for the ambiguity. I am happy with the way the block itself
exports. I have a document with many such blocks interspersed throughout
the document. I wanted to create an org document which contains just
these blocks, and then export that document to .tex. 

E.g., if I had a paper, I would like a document containing just the
terms defined in the paper, and none of the rest of the content.

Thanks,
Stephen
