Just tying up loose ends on this...

Tim Burt = was kind enough to go offline with me for a while on this, but I realized I= should put my final solution out there.=A0There is an option in blogger to= post in raw html, so for those just starting, that's an option. Just C= -u C-c C-e C-R and paste into blogger. I already had some 30 posts and re-d= oing them would have been awful. Here's what I ended up doing:

- write up post in org-mode

- highlight regio= n

- C-u C-c C-e C-R

- new file and yank the html

<= div>- write the file as export.txt

- in a terminal run:=A0perl -pi -e ' s/\R//g; s/\<p\&= gt;//g; s/\<\/p\>/\n\n/g;' =A0export.txt

--- This removes the begi= n paragraph tag and replaces the end paragraph tag with some new-line chara= cters.

- refresh export.txt

- copy the whole = buffer and then paste into blogger

Paragraph beginnings ha= ve two spaces that I go through and delete and since I also write to export= to LaTeX I use \quote and need to go through and change them to <blockq= uote></blockquote> where necessary. I obviously also have to clean= up LaTeX only stuff... It's hardly any work and I can live with it, es= pecially since I get the power of org-mode for writing things up along with= it's mutli-faceted export capabilities and=A0the fact that I ha= ve the file with me rather than just on blogger.

But what about my point = that currently all my posts do not use this? When I experimented with this = option yesterday it turned old posts into huge run-on paragraphs with no st= ructure, hence I don't really think it's an option unless I re-edit= every post. Going forward, it'd be easier to somehow get rid of line b= reaks... though maybe I should just write my own template or something. I d= on't really use <p> in my posts anyway but prefer the single line= space created by just on <br \>.

I dunno -- any= thoughts? Should I re-do like 30 posts for this? Is there any other way?

Thanks for the= help, all.

I use this process also for Blogger

... but I do not need to delete line breaks. =A0See
http://naturallogofx.rketburt.org/2010/07= /linebreaks-blogger-and-org-mode.html
for an article that describes what I do. =A0The fix for me was in the
Blogger settings, not anything in emacs.

I do not know how to prevent line breaks in the export, but nor have = I
needed to do that.

The article reference above indicates how to stop Blogger from
presenting an input linebreak (e.g. newline character) as an output
linebreak.

Let me know if the article reference does not help solve the issue.
