Carsten, I also use ditaa with artist although it's not the most pleasant experience unfortunately. I find artist mode very useful but also rather idiosyncratic at times... More importantly, there are some issues with the interaction between org-mode and artist diagrams, specifically that org-mode sometimes interprets artist diagrams as tables (e.g. if you have a vertical line as the first non-whitespace character on every line of the diagram, something that often happens when drawing a graph, say. Once org-mode has decided that the diagram is actually an org table, editing in source mode no longer works. For instance, the following diagram (something to do with heat exchanger networks, if you really want to know ;-) is interpreted as a table: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+begin_src ditaa :file test.png :result file | | ------------> | | | <--------- | | | -----------> | | #+end_src --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- There is, of course, an easy way out which is to type any character other than a | as the first non-whitespace character of the first line... I guess org-mode should not be interpreting anything between begin_src and end_src lines? Anyway, not a serious issue as there's an easy workaround but I thought I'd highlight it. --Multipart_Sat_Jun__5_10:06:21_2010-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII -- Eric S Fraga GnuPG: 8F5C 279D 3907 E14A 5C29 570D C891 93D8 FFFC F67D --Multipart_Sat_Jun__5_10:06:21_2010-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
