Bug: contrib/src/org-collector.el [7.3]

[MidLifeXis at PerlMonks]

Hello,

org-read-prop treats strings beginning with digits as numbers.
 

contrib/lisp/org-collector.el: (line 124ish: 
http://repo.or.cz/w/org-mode.git/blob/5f77fd6a81a4241ce5a8e346acb9df089d65b462:/contrib/lisp/org-collector.el#l124)


(org-read-prop "123abc-def543") returns 123, should return "123abc-def543"

Creates problems trying to include org-generated ID numbers (UUID style) into a 
propview table.

Perhaps later I can submit a patch, but I don't currently have the cycles.

My current configuration is:

Emacs  : GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2008-03-26 on RELEASE
Package: Org-mode version 7.3


but the problem is still in the master branch (see link above).

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the report.  I've just pushed up a fix to org-collector.el.
I've entirely removed `org-read-prop' and replaced it with
`org-babel-read' a more modern/robust version of the same function which
doesn't display the problem you mentioned below.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (org-babel-read "123abc-def543") ; 123abc-def543
#+end_src

Cheers -- Eric
