Org-mode export to .tex ?

Org-mode export to .tex ?

[Xavier MAILLARD]

Hello,

for my day to day notes taking system, I am using a thing named 
"pocketmod"; it is more or less an A4 sheet of paper folded in 8 little 
pages.
I find this system quite inexpensive and quick when it comes to just 
take a quick note/schedule/whatever.

On the other side, a pocketmod is not meant to last months and I need, 
from time to time to "save" some of my notes or todos into something 
more accurate. As a GNU emacs user, orgmode is almost an evidence.

My question is this: is there a way to take an orgmode agenda and 
format/export it in .tex files suitable to build a pocketmod version ?
I remember someone posted an org2hpda Makefile but, either I am doing 
something wrong, running it just outputs empty .tex files (there are no 
entries from my org mode files).

Thanks for your help.
Xavier

I don't know about exporting agenda, but you could use csv agenda (see
http://mbork.pl/2019-07-15_Batch_Org_agenda) and LaTeX pocketmod.sty
(see https://github.com/liantze/pocketmod.sty).

Hth,

I just looked at the org2hpda code and it seems to rely on the cal-tex
package to generate LaTeX calendars for you. If you set cal-tex-diary to
true you will also see diary entries. But AFAICT it doesn't include
anything from the org agenda.
