How to convert org file to such a plain text

How to convert org file to such a plain text

[anhnmncb]

I want to export org to plan text, which pattern is:
--------------------
|level 1
|<tab>level 2
|<tab>- item
|<tab><tab>level 3
--------------------
instead of
--------------------
|* level 1
|** level 2
|<tab>- item
|*** level 3
--------------------

We do not have an exporter that can do this right now.

What are the odds that Carsten has plans to export to a format *you* just
invented?

Oh, my pda app projekt can import this format of file, but if all of you
think it's no use, nervermind.

Hey, why the huff?

The point is, you have not given us any chance at all to
think it might be of any use!

Here is the thing:  This is an open source project, everyone
who is in it, is in there for the fun of it and in his/her
free time.  So how to trigger other people to do work for you?
Here is what triggers me:

1. BUGS
   Bugs are like a bad itch, and its very hard for me to not
   keep scratching until they are gone.

2. Logical gaps in the Org-mode framework
   If an idea or feature fits obviously into what Org should do,
   so obvious that once you hear it, you can't say why you
   have not thought about it before.

3. Interesting ideas and feature requests that do make sense
   in the Org-mode framework.
   For this the proposer needs to take the time and energy to
   make a good case for it.  Why is this interesting and
   useful for me, why for others, how can it be used
   and configured?

4. Cool stuff
   I want Org-mode to be the coolest thing out there, and cool
   ideas can occasionally trigger me to implement them even
   if their usefulness is not yet clear or well established.

5. Requests from people who have shown their interest in Org-mode
   over a longer period and have contributed in one way or another.
   I will be more inclined to listen to ideas from those people,
   even if something is badly explained or does not make sense to
   me immediately.

Let me make an example:  Had you come and explained that you are
writing a really cool PDA application that will finally allow
two-way synching between Org-mode and a PDA, and that you will make
this program freely available to everyone, and that you need a
certain input format to make sure that entries can be identified
in a unique way, you would very likely have your exporter by now.

Hope this makes things clearer.

Happy hacking!

- Carsten

Sorry, I can't find more useful info, the app just says it can import
the txt file which has different level of indents. So I think replace
star(*) with <tab> is enough. Such like this:

Org file              -->  txt file
--------------------       --------------------
|* level 1                 |level 1            
|** level 2           -->  |<tab>level 2       
|<tab>- item               |<tab>- item        
|*** level 3               |<tab><tab>level 3  
--------------------       --------------------

I'm not a programmer, so if my request is stupid and easy to achieve by
any other way, please let me know.

For the time being, it might make sense to create a keyboard macro
that exports to ASCII, and then replaces stars with tabs.

[Eddward DeVilla]

I don't know if you use perl at all.  My first guess is:

    perl -pe's/^(\*+)(\s+.*)$/("\t"x length$1).$2/e' < TODO.org > TODO.txt

Having tried it on a live file, I don't think the results are very
pleasing  Replacing a single character '*' with a tab creates a
formatting mess with any other text in the file.

Re: Re: How to convert org file to such a plain text

[Hugo Schmitt]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 5805 bytes --]

anhnmncb, this helps you?

(defun org-to-anhnmncb ()
  (interactive)
  (goto-char (point-min))
  (let ((curlevel 0))
    (while (< (point) (point-max))
      (goto-char (point-at-bol))
      (cond
       ((looking-at "\\(\\*+\\)\\s-*")
        (setq curlevel (1- (length (match-string 1))))
        (replace-match (make-string curlevel ?\t)))
       ((looking-at "\\s-*")
        (replace-match (concat (make-string curlevel ?\t) "- "))))
      (forward-line 1))))

my test was this:

* level1
  item
** level2
   item
   item
*** level3
    item
    item
** level2 again
   item
   item

which gets converted into:

level1
- item
    level2
    - item
    - item
        level3
        - item
        - item
    level2 again
    - item
    - item


hope this helps,
hugo

Yes, it's a bit mess, thank you anyway.
