Hello,

I'm trying to write a shell script that will automatically change a bunch of
my org-mode files into HTML files.  But am running into some problems.  The
structure, as best I understand it, should like something like this:

emacs -batch -eval '(progn (find-file "test.org.txt") (org-export-as-html
"test.html"))'

However, when I run that, it gives the output:

Loading 00fink-vars...
Exporting...
Exporting...
Exporting...
Wrong type argument: stringp, nil


Oddly, I've noticed that if I don't use my custom extension (.org.txt) but
just use .org like so:

emacs -batch -eval '(progn (find-file "test.org") (org-export-as-html
"test.html"))'

It will run, but will always spit out a blank HTML file, no matter the
contents of test.org

Thank you in advance for any help,

Colin Grey
