Exporter dispatcher bug?

Exporter dispatcher bug?

[Charles Millar]

Have I missed an announcement?

Today, using C-c C-e, the dispatcher shows only the LaTeX and Publisher 
options.

I tried M-x org-export-dispatch and HTML was also included.

i have exited emacs and restarted - same results.

Org-mode version 8.3beta (release_8.3beta-400-g200eeb @ 
c:/cygwin/home/Charlie01/.elisp/org-mode/lisp/)

GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.0.6002) of 2013-03-17 on MARVIN

Windows Vista SP2

Looks normal! Wild guess, had to try :)

I think you want to check

(mapcar 'org-export-backend-name org-export--registered-backends)

to see what backends are actually available to the export dispatcher.

and  (mapcar 'org-export-backend-menu org-export--registered-backends)

to see what menu options should be there.

HTH,

Brady and Charles and all,

Thanks for your suggestions.

The following is rather long-winded.

I found (mapcar 'org-export-backend-menu 
org-export--registered-backends); however (mapcar 
'org-export-backend-name org-export--registered-backends) does not exist 
in my ox.el.
On my Linux learning machine (Jessie, same org version) the dispatcher 
is fine. However there appears to be no (mapcar 'org-export-backend-name 
org-export--registered-backends)

In the meantime, I did my regular org update and still have the same 
problem. The dispatcher (on my Vista machine) shows the toggled options 
at the top and bottom. In between the LaTeX and Publish backends with 
options are shown, but no others. (There has not been a problem with the 
toggled options)

So I did M-x org-export-to-[tab] which gave

Possible completions are:
org-ascii-export-to-ascii     org-beamer-export-to-latex
org-beamer-export-to-pdf     org-bibtex-export-to-kill-ring
org-html-export-to-html     org-icalendar-export-to-ics
org-latex-export-to-latex     org-latex-export-to-pdf
org-md-export-to-markdown     org-odt-export-to-odt
org-org-export-to-org

I decided to choose ascii, which reported an export to a txt file (did 
not check it out). After that the ascii backend had been loaded into the 
dispatcher as well as the LaTeX and Publish.

I did a M-x org-export-to-html, which reported an export to html; the 
dispatcher now had ascii, html, LaTeX and Publish

What I meant was:

You should eval

(mapcar 'org-export-backend-name org-export--registered-backends)

to see what backends are available to the dispatcher.

If you copy that line into an emacs buffer (like *scratch*), put point 
after it and type C-x C-e, you will see the backend names listed in the 
minibuffer and the *Messages* buffer.

This list *ought to* correspond to `org-export-backends'. If it does not 
there is a hiccup or unusual customization in your setup - more digging 
might be needed.

If it does correspond, then use the customize menu to reset 
`org-export-backends' to your desired value and save the change as you 
need it.

HTH,

Chuck

Same results as C-c C-e; only LaTeX and Publish are listed.

I suspect my set up and perhaps  more specifically a Cygwin problem. I 
update org via Cygwin.

Just before receiving your most recent reply I commented out everything 
in my .emacs/init.el file, except for

(add-to-list 'load-path "c:/cygwin/home/Charlie01/.elisp/org-mode/lisp")

(add-to-list 'load-path 
"c:/cygwin/home/Charlie01/.elisp/org-mode/contrib/lisp")

Instead of just eval-buffer, i restarted emacs. C-c C-e only listed 
Publisher, not even LaTeX

will give it a try.
