New :base-extension parameter: :none

New :base-extension parameter: :none

[Richard KLINDA]

Hello, I don't use filename extensions for my org files and I could not
publish my files that way because you have to give a string parameter to
:base-extension.

I modified the org-publish-get-base-files function to support a :none
keyword, that means that every file gets exported (except those thats
name start with a dot):

,----
|        '("test" . (:base-directory "~/test/"
|                    :base-extension :none  ;; <---- new :none keyword
|                    :publishing-directory "/tmp/"
|                    :with-section-numbers nil
|                    :table-of-contents nil
|                    ))
`----

Here is the modified function, 2 lines changed (look for the "<-----").
Carsten, please include this change in the next version of Org if you
think it's ok, thank you.

| (defun org-publish-get-base-files (project &optional exclude-regexp)
|   "Return a list of all files in PROJECT.

|   (let* ((project-plist (cdr project))
| 	 (base-dir (file-name-as-directory
| 		    (plist-get project-plist :base-directory)))
| 	 (include-list (plist-get project-plist :include))
| 	 (recurse (plist-get project-plist :recursive))
| 	 (extension (or (plist-get project-plist :base-extension) "org"))
| 	 (match (if (eq extension :none)  ;; <-----
|                     "^[^\\.]"           ;; <-----
|                     (concat "^[^\\.].*\\.\\(" extension "\\)$"))))
|     (setq org-publish-temp-files nil)
|     (org-publish-get-base-files-1 base-dir recurse match
| 				  ;; FIXME distinguish exclude regexp
| 				  ;; for skip-file and skip-dir?
| 				  exclude-regexp exclude-regexp)
|     (mapc (lambda (f)
| 	    (pushnew
| 	     (expand-file-name (concat base-dir f))
| 	     org-publish-temp-files))
| 	  include-list)
|     org-publish-temp-files))

  Shouldn't that be
:base-extension 'none
  with a symbol instead of a keyword? I think : is for KEYwords, symbols that are going to be used as keys in a hash table.

Actually... don't we have nil for that?

'none is fine with me too, Carsten please change the symbol to 'none if
you think that is more in line with org conventions.

Actually no, you can use keywords in situations like this, keywords are
just symbols that evaluate to themselves, it's simply a stylistic choice.

,----[ org-publish.el ] 
| 	 (extension (or (plist-get project-plist :base-extension) "org"))

Nil (default case) gets replaced by "org" string, so we have to have
something else for the none case.
