Bug: org-tempo expansion comments out the following src block when org-src-tabs-natively is 't [9.3 (release_9.3 @ /home/yantar92/.emacs.d/straight/build/org/)]

[Ihor Radchenko]

Recipe:

1. emacs -Q
2. Execute the following lisp code:

(setq org-src-tab-acts-natively t)
(require 'org-tempo)
(push (cons "el" "src emacs-lisp") org-structure-template-alist)

3. Create the following org file:

<point>

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
#+end_src

4. Put the point before the code block

5.1. Type <s TAB

Observed behaviour:

#+begin_src 


#+begin_src emacs-lisp
#+end_src

Expected behaviour:

#+begin_src 

#+end_src

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
#+end_src


5.2. Type <el TAB

Observed behaviour:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

#+end_src

  ,#+begin_src emacs-lisp
#+end_src


Expected behaviour:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

#+end_src

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
#+end_src

Setting org-src-tab-acts-natively to nil makes org-mode behave normally.

I did not need to add this line to confirm the behavior:

Right. The issue seems to be that `org-tempo-add-block' puts  `>' elements in its recipe for converting  `org-structure-template-alist' to `tempo-org-template-*' values.

Those are innocuous when `org-src-tab-acts-natively' is nil.

But when `org-src-tab-acts-natively' is `t', an attempt is made to indent within the src block, which I guess is where the trouble lies as an error occurs which prevents the remainder of the template from being inserted.

If you really need `<s', then this is a problem (and a bug).

You might use `C-c C-,' as long as you have no other templates defined.

HTH,

Chuck

Note the 5.2 part of the recipe.
It is probably caused by the same reason, but the consequence is that
the following code block is being commented, sometimes out of the screen.
I accidentally commented several parts of my emacs configuration because
of this.

I prefer to use `<el<TAB>' instead of `C-c C-, e l C-o' simply because
it takes one less key press and less modifier keys. And I do have other
templates.

The most straightforward solutions are deleting the `'>' elements from
the template or temporary setting the `org-src-tabs-acts-natively' to
nil. 

Best,
