Does anyone have a function they use to quickly copy org as markdown vice-versa? in c/emacs@communick.news
[–] Far-Anywhere2876@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I just tried this. This sounded exactly like what I wanted, but for some reason it did not copy things latex equations in org mode properly (ie. didn't replace \( & \) w/ $ & $).

Does anyone have a function they use to quickly copy org as markdown vice-versa? (alien.top)
 

I don't want to export the entire file as markdown, I want to copy a region which assumes org syntax with the syntax converted to markdown syntax. Also, I want to be able to paste something that was copied using markdown syntax as org syntax. Does anyone currently have anything for this?

How to create a personal wiki in emacs? in c/emacs@communick.news

What about if I want to capture multiple pieces of information as different nodes under the same headline?

How to create a personal wiki in emacs? (alien.top)
 

I know this question has been asked before and I know about org-roam, I am just not sure if org-roam is the right solution for me. Right now, I use one big org file to take notes which I export to pdf. This works nicely, but it would be nice to also have access to the concepts in the larger org file at a granular level (ie. bite-sized notes which reference one another and are organized based on their subject matter). I would also like to tag information that is not in org format, if possible. I was thinking that org-roam & org-transclusion could be used to make main subject files, while org-roam could be used to make a link to an embedded pdf that comes from the concept I am referencing, when I don't need to explicitly review the material in whatever notes I am taking. Has anybody done anything like this? Any tips are appreciated. Thanks.

Is there a way to override org-mode's default placement parameter for latex figures? (alien.top)
 

I know this can be done via #+attr_latex: :placement [] over the figure itself, but is there a variable I can set this parameter to always be [H] rather than its default value ([htbp]?

Any way to stop org mode from adding preceding commas from src blocks? (alien.top)
 

When writing C code in org mode, things , after pressing Enter or Tab, like...

*(p2+1)='e';

end up w/ preceding commas. I've tried w/ emacs -q and I have the same issue. Is there any short term fix for this?

​

UPDATE

I realize now this is a quoting mechanism to prevent confusion inside an org document, and that this should not be removed. Instead is there a good way to font lock these commas so that they are barely visible?

How to make org mode only fontify subscripts/superscripts if there are brackets? (alien.top)
 

I want to disable the fortification of things like a_b and a^b while letting things like a^{b} and a_{b} get fontified in org mode. Is there a good way to do this?

Is there a way to define an org entity in a way that it does not require a backslash? (alien.top)
 

Specifically, I want := to show up as ≔ in my buffer, and export as such.

If I do...

(add-to-list 'org-entities-user
             '(":=" "\\coloneq" t "≔" ":=" ":=" "≔"))

I need to add a backslash before the symbol. Is there a way to achieve what I want?
