Dear all, 

I have implemented tabbing (http://www.ctex.org/documents/latex/latex2e-html/ltx-58.html) support for ox-latex. By setting #+ATTR_LATEX: :mode tabbingthe exporter will use the tabbing environment. 

The benefits of using tabbing over tabular:
- Can span multiple pages (also possible with long tables).
- Cell width is fixed and does not depend on the content.
- Cells can overflow. 

Use cases of tabbing:
- Generate letter headings with fixed layout
- Generate tables on invoices
- Can replace multi-columns (my personal use case)
Example 1:
#+ATTR_LATEX: :mode tabbing
| A | B |
|   | C |
is exported to 
\begin{tabbing}
\hspace{0.49\textwidth} \= \hspace{0.49\textwidth} \= \kill
A \> B\\
\> C\\
\end{tabbing}

Example 2:
#+ATTR_LATEX: :mode tabbing
| *Address* | Some street 100, box 101 |   | *GSM*   | 00 000 00 00 00  |
|         | Country                  |   | *Email* | mail@example.com |
the exported pdf is attached to this mail. 
Example 3:
#+ATTR_LATEX: :mode tabbing :align \hspace{2cm} \= \hspace{2cm} \= \kill
| name:    | A very long product name in this cell |   |
| options: | option 1                               | 1 |
|                | option 2                               | 1 |
|                | option 3                               | 0 |
the exported pdf is attached to this mail. 
 Implementation details: 
- The table environment must be set to tabbing
- The cell separators must be set to \>
- The alignment string must be updated. 

Kind regards,
Bob Vergauwen

Subject: [PATCH 1/3] ox-latex.el: Added padding support

* lisp/ox-latex.el (org-latex-table): Tabbing support.

(org-latex--align-string-tabbing): This function generates
the LaTeX alignment string for the tabbing environment.  An
optional string can be passed to this command via the
`:align' parameter.

(org-table--org-tabbing): Generates the tabbing export
string for latex.

(org-latex-table-cell): This function now checks the type
of the parent table of the cell.  If the parrent type is
set to `padding', the cell separator is set to ` \> '
otherwise the default cell separator ` &- ' is used.

We generally try to keep all the text in source files narrower than 70
characters (default value of fill-column). You can use fill-region to
make Emacs autofill the comment lines.

It looks like math? argument is unused. Is it intentional?

You do not need an extra progn inside let.

Hi Daniel, I see this was committed with you as Author: and Bob as
Created-by:, which is somewhat unusual. I canʼt find anything about
Created-by in the descriptions of org-mode's processes (and this is
the only instance I can see in the commit logs).

That patch was actually just a diff, so I created a commit so it was my name. I came up with the "created-by" field to
attribute the work to Bob. Is there another way it should have been done?

git commit --author='Bob Vergauwen <emacs@vergauwen.me>'

which would show you as the committer, and Bob as the author.

Thanks for the tip; I wasn't aware one can use any identity to author a commit.
Perhaps that's why there's an option to do GPG signing in git.

Hi Robert, 
I used the instructions provide on 
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#first-patch.
For me, it was a first too, send a patch via email. Can I 
prevent these issues in the future or use a different method
to send my patches?

Kind regardes,
Bob

I think we describe one method in

This commit triggers

In org-latex--align-string-tabbing:
ox-latex.el:3713:54: Warning: Unused lexical variable `align'

Looking at the code, it does not look like align variable serve any
purpose. Can someone please double check if the patch is working as
intended?

Best,
Ihor

Thanks for flagging this, Ihor.  I was just glancing at this commit
(4a0d951c6) due to seeing this warning.  It's doing

  (let ((align ...))
    (setq align ...))

where the align value is returned, so the align binding can be dropped
altogether.

Daniel, in addition to that, there are at least a few other issues with
4a0d951c6 that should be addressed:

 * the first line of the new docstrings should be a complete sentence.

   For example

     Return an appropriate LaTeX alignment string, for the
     latex tabbing environment.

   should be changed to something like

     Return alignment string for LaTeX tabbing environment.

   See (info "(elisp)Documentation Tips")

 * the indentation is off in several places, including the start of the
   docstrings.  Please indent the code with, e.g., indent-region.

 * one of org-table--org-tabbing's parameters is a typo (contenst),
   which it looks like Ihor pointed out in an earlier review

 * comment typo: documets

 * several spots put opening and trailing parentheses on their own line

   That goes against the usual conventions of this repo:

     $ git grep '^ *)' '*.el' | wc -l
     42
     $ git grep '( *$' '*.el' | wc -l
     17

 * rather than doing something like

     (let ((x ""))
       (setq x <something else>)
       ...)

   just do

     (let ((x <something else>))
      ...)

   And consider whether it's worth adding a binding at all rather than
   inlining the code.

   As an extreme case, org-table--org-tabbing does

     (let ((output (format ...)))
       output)

   rather than

     (format ...)

I donʼt think you did anything wrong, although if you'd committed the
changes locally and run 'git format-patch' to produce the patch file,
your authorship would have been included (Ihor's link below discusses
it at length)

The thing thatʼs missing is any discussion of how to ensure the Author
of the commit is set correctly. When applying git patches it all
works, but not when applying diffs. Iʼll read through the
org-contribute section and see if I can come up with some verbiage.

Something like this? (I hope Iʼve got the syntax right, I seldom write
org for exporting purposes). The emacs CONTRIBUTE guidelines talk
about setting 'Author', but I guess not everyone reads those...

This format doesn't quite align to the conventions.  Here are two

Fine as is, but (lambda (cell) cell) could be reduced to #'identity

nit: missing space before "the"

typo: documets -> document's

Perhaps s/latex/LaTeX/ for consistency?

Otherwise, looks good to me.  Thanks again.

Maybe add the details to org-maintenance.org instead?
This is more of a technical detail needed for maintainers, not for the
committers.

I think we usually prefer source blocks to inline source blocks.

Iʼd be worried if the org maintainer(s) didnʼt know how to override
Author :-)

Occasional committers would probably not read org-maintenance.org, and
those are the people this section is aimed at, I think. Plus itʼs the
kind of thing you need to catch early: once the commit has been pushed
itʼs too late.

I have bad news for you... Simply because I never ever had a need to do
it :) Not like selecting this option from Magit dispatch is difficult.

Not really. org-contribute.org is the page directly linked from
orgmode.org. It is aiming for new contributors with no write access.

More elaborate things like backwards compatibility, copyright process
assistance, etc are documented in org-maintenance.org.
Modifying submitted diffs/patches appears to lay within the more
elaborate category IMHO.

This particular change is in "Your first commit as an Org
maintainer". Perhaps that node should be moved to org-maintenance.org?

No, since weʼre still discussing where it should go.

I do not think so. I am seeing this section as a "crash course" for the
new maintainers. We should only provide the critical information there.
Not too much, not too less. Something to not scare people with the
details.

The elaborate details should be in org-maintenance.org, which is
directly mentioned at the end of the "first commit" section.

Best,
Ihor

I guess we disagree about whether knowing about the distinction
between 'Author:' and 'Commit:' is critical or not. For a free
software project correct attribution of changes is very important, so
committers should pay attention to it (and by extension the
documentation should educate them about it at the earliest
opportunity). But youʼre the maintainer :-)

In "Where can I track bugs, patches and updates?" or somewhere else?
BTW, Iʼm having trouble parsing this sentence from there:

    You don't much more: confirming bugs is a critical contribution.

Thereʼs at least one word missing betweeen "donʼt" and "much" there.

Maybe we are mis-communicating here.
AFAIU, carefully checking Author: and Commit: is only relevant when
applying commits made by people without commit access. Same goes for
checking the copyright status of the patch authors.

Occasional committers do not usually apply patches made by others.

I think that "Copyright assignments" is suitable. "keep track of
copyright assignments" includes checking the copyright status of the
patch authors.

Fixed. Should be
"You don't need to do much more: confirming bugs is a critical contribution."

Best,
