Org is awesome

[James Harkins]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 502 bytes --]

After 243 commits to a constellation of org files, producing 10849 lines of
LaTeX code from the Beamer exporter, which render into 229 pages of
beamerarticle print-ready material, including 156 captioned code listings
(and a handful of un-numbered ones) and 27 pages of fully indexed glossary
entries (whose LaTeX code comes from emacs-lisp source blocks processing
org tables), I think I'm in a position to state with confidence:

ORG IS AWESOME.

"Thanks to all the developers" is insufficient.

Or with a little bit more effort maybe a nice Worg article ;)

I've started on a worg page to describe the project's design. That's lower
priority than some other projects, though, might take awhile.

For those who wanted to see the article, a current draft is here:
http://ubuntuone.com/2uszkV2PDUuSgZAtnXwXzZ -- though the subject (audio
synthesis and real-time control) is likely to be esoteric for most.

I don't understand a thing, but I find it beautiful.  :)

As I used to use supercollider and other audio tools like ardour back
when I merely used computers for fun, it was a very nice read in
addition to being a great example of what org-mode can do.

Thanks for posting!

Can you please post a link to the sources? I would most probably use
it as a reference for generating different parts of any documents that
I would create.

Yes, please release your indexing code especially!

Not just yet.

As I said in the email that you quoted, I'm working on a worg page to
explain the project's implementation. That page will include a link to the
sources. I would rather not publish the link just now, because then I would
have to answer questions about it by email, and many of those questions are
likely to be answered in the worg page -- redundant effort.

So, just be patient -- it'll happen, but not until project documentation is
ready.

Sure. Looking forward to the new worg page.

I searched worg for 'colophon' ('cite' of course had lots of hits..)

It might be nice if there were something analogous to

http://astrostatistics.psu.edu/su07/R/html/utils/html/citation.html

for those authors who felt like providing pointers.  This 'reproducable
research' thing is picking up steam.  Stylized citations for the
production systems couldn't but help.

"Yeah, Allen, why don't you write one?"   Koff.  OK, here's a stab,
riffing on the R citation() function.  Please consider this a bikeshed
at which to briefly aim your paint cannons.


-------

 To cite org-mode in publications use:

  Free Software Foundation, Inc. (2004 - 2014) org-mode: Outline-based
  notes management and organizer.  http://orgmode.org/

A BibTeX entry for LaTeX users is

  @Manual{,
    title = {org-mode: Outline-based notes management and organizer.},
    author = {{Carsten Dominik et. alia}},
    organization = {Free Software Foundation, Inc.},
    address = {51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor; Boston, MA 02110-1301},
    year = {2014},
    url = {http://orgmode.org/},
  }
