:latex-listings publishing option not used; minted + beamer incompatibility?

:latex-listings publishing option not used; minted + beamer incompatibility?

[Hsiu-Khuern Tang]

Hi,

The :latex-listings option appears to be unused at the present.  It
would be great to activate this as an alternative to the
org-export-latex-listings variable.  (Same thing for :latex-minted.)


BTW, has anyone used minted with beamer?  I get errors like

Runaway argument?
 int main(int argc, char **argv) { \ETC.
! Paragraph ended before \FV@BeginScanning was complete.

A search on Google shows lots of reports related to beamer and Sweave.

Thanks,

Yes, I exported Eric Fraga's babel/beamer slides example using minted
last week and it worked fine. However,

yes, I now get that error. So something has changed recently. I'm using
fully updated ubuntu 10.10. What system are you using?

So perhaps we're seeing the effects of a recent change in the tex/latex
stack, rather than an emacs/org/minted/pygments problem??

I'm using Debian unstable.  My texlive package is version 2009-8; the
current version in Debian unstable is 2009-11.

Some of the Google results go back quite a long time, e.g.,
http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/04/12/9454.html.  I'm staying
with listings for now.

This problem is now fixed in Org. The problem was that frames using
minted needed to be marked as fragile; Org was only doing this for
verbatim and lstlisting.

If you are unable to pull the latest Org from the git repo, please
change the `org-beamer-fragile-re' regexp as follows

(setq org-beamer-fragile-re "^[ \t]*\\\\begin{\\(verbatim\\|lstlisting\\|minted\\)}")

Customize can also be used to make this change.

Attached is a version of Eric Fraga's beamer example, modified to use
python instead of octave, and the pdf export resulting from C-c C-e d.

* Introduction
** Overview
- org-mode template
- beamer structure
- beamer settings


* Methodology

** A simple slide
This slide consists of some text with a number of bullet points:
- the first, very @important@, point!
- the previous point shows the use of the special markup which
  translates to the Beamer specific /alert/ command for highlighting
  text.
The above list could be numbered or any other type of list and may
include sub-lists.

** A more complex slide
This slide illustrates the use of Beamer blocks.  The following text,
with its own headline, is displayed in a block:
*** Org mode increases productivity				  :B_theorem:
    :PROPERTIES:
    :BEAMER_env: theorem
    :END:
    - org mode means not having to remember \LaTeX commands.
    - it is based on ascii text which is inherently portable.
    - Emacs!

    \hfill \(\qed\)

** Two columns

*** A block					      :B_ignoreheading:BMCOL:
    :PROPERTIES:
    :BEAMER_env: ignoreheading
    :BEAMER_col: 0.4
    :END:
    - this slide consists of two columns
    - the first (left) column has no heading and consists of text
    - the second (right) column has an image and is enclosed in an
      @example@ block

*** A screenshot 					    :BMCOL:B_example:
    :PROPERTIES:
    :BEAMER_col: 0.6
    :BEAMER_env: example
    :END:
    #+ATTR_LATEX: width=\textwidth
    [[file:../../images/org-beamer/a-simple-slide.png]]

** Babel
   :PROPERTIES:
   :BEAMER_envargs: [t]
   :END:
*** Python code 					      :BMCOL:B_block:
    :PROPERTIES:
    :BEAMER_col: 0.45
    :BEAMER_env: block
    :END:
#+srcname: pythonexample
#+begin_src python :results output :exports both
def f(a):
    return a*a
for i in range(3):
    print f(i)
#+end_src

*** The output						      :BMCOL:B_block:
    :PROPERTIES:
    :BEAMER_col: 0.4
    :BEAMER_env: block
    :BEAMER_envargs: <2->
    :END:

#+results: pythonexample
: 0
: 1
: 4

* Conclusions

** Summary
   - org is an incredible tool for time management
   - @but@ it is also excellent for writing and for preparing presentations
   - Beamer is a very powerful \LaTeX{} package for presentations
   - the combination is unbeatable!
