export to odt is not per default in the export menu

export to odt is not per default in the export menu

[Uwe Brauer]

Hi

When I use org-export-dispatch, then a list of possible formats pop up
but odt is not among them. Only if I explicitly call
org-odt-export-to-odt

once, then this command pops up in the list. How
can I change this behaviour and have the odt export function in the
list??

Thanks

Somewhere in your init files, put (require 'ox-odt). Then it will always
be available. Take a look at the other ox-* files, many of them are
useful enough to always load by default.

This question pops up fairly often. I suggest that ODT should be
provided out of the box. It is clearly in demand. It meets the needs of
a whole segment of users that need to work with office software. Sure,
nothing prevents them from using it by adding a brief line to their init
file. But why not advertise it? It's a major feature and it works well.

Yours,
Christian

FWIW, I also think this would be a good thing to load by default.

+1 even if I personally don't use it.
For many people is the bridge to work with others.

Best...
