org-export-latex.el v0.17 is out

[Bastien]

Hi list,

org-export-latex.el v0.17 is there:

  http://www.cognition.ens.fr/~guerry/u/org-export-latex.el

- org-export-latex.el now convert images.

  The LaTeX exporter recognize .eps files as images (while the HTML
  exporter doesn't).

  There is a new option: `org-export-latex-image-default-option'. But
  this is just a temporary solution, since i think we should be able to
  set infile options for images, maybe through a comment line #+IMG:
  containing parameters for the next image LaTeX export. Ideas welcome.

- The \date{<2007-07-28 sam>} is now commented out, so that LaTeX will
  insert it automatically.

- Lots of bug fixes.

Quick look at further improvements:

- support for footnotes
- parameters for image export 
- #+BEGIN_LaTeX and #+END_LaTeX
- org-export-as-latex-region
- better list exporter
- support for bibtex citations

Enjoy!

A bug:

When org-odd-levels-only is set to t, only level 1 heading is
exported. level 2 (triple stars) onwards are omitted.

Yes. For now i suggest you use #+STARTUP: oddeven.
 
I have to check the way this option affects the HTML exporter so that
the LaTeX exporter behaves accordingly. This will be fixed in the next
release, thanks.

org-export to Palm Markup Language (PML)

[Charles Cave]

Bastien,

Well done with org-export-as-latex !  I installed it on
GNU Emacs 22.1.1 on Windows XP and it works very well.

I am working on a Perl script to convert org-mode to
Palm Markup Language to make ebooks for my Palm m515
and the ereader program. It seems that it wouldn't be
hard to adapt org-export-as-latex to make org-export-as-pml

Details of PML:  http://www.ereader.com/dropbook/pml

Is anyone else on this list interested in making eBooks
on the Palm?

I am only using a small set of PML:

Headings are converted to \XNheading Text\XN  where N is 0,1,2,3 or 4
Bold text:  \Bboldtext\B
Italics:    \iItalic\i
Underline:  \uUnderline\u

Charles

Hmm, I'd be much more interested in implementing bidirectional
synchronisation with Shadow Plan for Palm OS - that strikes me as far
more useful.  I was thinking about having a crack at writing a plugin
for opensync to do it using the opensync python bindings, but the
documentation is practically non-existent :-/

I'm interested in that too.  I have some experience as I made code just
to edit LifeBalance pdb files (all in Emacs lisp), but something more
interactive would be far more usable.

The problem with my code is that it edits the pdb directly, so I have to
pull it from the palm, edit on the PC, push it back to the palm, which
maybe doesn't sound too bad, but in real life I just don't use it.  What
I am saying is, that a proper sync method would be much more useful,
where I can freely edit stuff on the PC and palm and the sync somehow
synchronises the changes in both directions.

Have a nice day, Richard
