Aloha all,
Is it possible (or would it be useful) to leverage the literate
programming facilities of org-babel to write LaTeX code?
I'd like to weave a document that describes how some thesis/idea/story
can be developed/elaborated/told and then tangle an instance of
'developed thesis'/'elaborated idea'/'told story' that LaTeX can make
presentable. The motivation for this is a desire to have one source
document that will tangle 1) a slide presentation via beamer, and 2) a
print document for publication. The two share a common organization/
structure/plot but there are radically different presentation mode
constraints.
Org-mode is a terrific tool for organizing, structuring, and
plotting. Org-babel seems to be a likely candidate for abstracting
the different presentation modes.
Here is some pseudo-code for illustration:
* Idea 1
#+srcname: beamer-idea-1
#+begin_src latex :exports none
\begin{itemize}
\item first concept
\item second concept
\end{itemize}
#+end_src
#+srcname: latex-idea-1
#+begin_src latex :exports none
The first concept was developed by \citet{author1}. It later became
the basis for the second concept \citep{author2}. ...
#+end_src
#+srcname: beamer-presentation
#+begin_src latex :tangle beamer-thesis :exports none
# <<beamer-idea-1>>
# <<beamer-idea-2>>
...
#+end_src
#+srcname: latex-presentation
#+begin_src latex :tangle latex-thesis :exports none
# <<latex-idea-1>>
# <<latex-idea-2>>
...
#+end_src
