So, I started to use orgmode for writing the documentation for my latest software project. This means, that I have code blocks and lots of special characters in my document. I will have to export this whole file to LaTex/pdf, so my colleague can bind it into his project documentation and this is exactly where my problems are. First of all: how can I turn of the need to manually stop the code execution for code blocks when exporting? I have the single line src_bash{} blocks but also the multiline versions:
#+begin_src bash :
#code
#+ends_src
The next thing is, that my function names include underscores, which in orgmode translates to making the following text lowercase. I tried using \ to escape it, but that only breaks it in a new way and I seriously cant comprehend how this so called zero width space is supposed to be used.
You need to use a symbol, not a string:
That's what you'd need to write to have subscript, with the above set:
log_critical=> log_criticallog_{critical}=> log~critical~So I have set them like this:
and it still does not render correctly. Writing
log_criticalandlog_{critical}gets rendered as log~critical~Weird, are they getting overridden by something else in your config (a package or something). In an org-mode buffer, what's the output of
C-h v org-export-with-sub-superscripts?Edit: worked out the issues, I wrote the one of the variable names wrong, it should be
org-export-with-sub-superscriptsnotorg-export-with-superscriptsThat fixed it. :3
May I ask you something else? Do you know how I can configure the layout of tables in Orgmode? Currently my table looks like this:
What I am missing is a separator between each column. I tried out various things through the LaTex attributes as it has been described here, but most stuff either broke my caption or didnt change anything at all about the table. I have not configured my table anything beyond giving it a caption.
Sorry, I don't use Latex and am entirely unfamiliar with it, I mostly use org-mode to export to HTML where CSS would be used for this. This Stack Overflow thread says you can add
:align |c|c|c|to#+attr_latexto get columns. Apparently column groups also will add these lines, which works in the ODT export but not the HTML one so may work in the Latex one.This blog post has a walkthrough on using an alternative table extension that may be helpful.
Thank you very much.
