Hi Samuel,


I've been blogging with org-mode for a while and like it a lot. Let's me
keep my blog posts in an org file for retention but still provides a
convenient way to post to html. See this page of the manual for getting rid
of a lot of other stuff: http://orgmode.org/manual/Export-options.html. For
example, you can set some lines like this in your header:

#+options: author:nil email:nil

My publishing routine goes like this... Write up some text:

* heading
** subheading for export
blah blah blah blah

- Highlight "blah blah blah blah"
- C-c C-e R to export the region
- In the new buffer created I delete everything from < html > to the text I
want as well as the closing < /html >. I use C-x C-w to save that buffer to
a file called export.txt
- I open up a command line and run perl -pi -e ' s/\R/ /g; s/\<p\>//g;
s/\<\/p\>/\n\n/g;'  export.txt
- I go back to emacs and do C-x C-f export.txt and tell it to reload and
then copy that into blogger

The perl command gets rid of < p > tags and since I run org in Fill mode it
gets ride of the badly placed line breaks so everything is continuous. It's
been working pretty good for me. I might need to optimize the perl. It's
been a little bit since I used it but I recall it puts an extra space at the
beginning of paragraphs or something.

I'm sure there's some function I can't recall to get rid of the < html >
heading but I can't recall what it is offhand. It's in the mailing list
archives somewhere. For now my blogging is low enough that I don't mind
stripping it off myself.
