Re: [Orgmode] Exporting #+lob

[Thomas S. Dye]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for asking about the Library of Babel.  I'm still figuring out the best way to use it and welcome your advice.

Here is the approach I've drafted.  Do you think this is a reasonable way to go?

The GANTT Emacs lisp code can either be placed in the buffer with the

GANTT chart table or it can be installed in the [[http://orgmode.org/manual/Library-of-Babel.html#Library-of-Babel][Library of Babel]].

Installing local code in the Library of Babel is best accomplished by

establishing one or more Org-mode files for this purpose and keeping

them in a place that won't be overwritten when Org-mode is updated.

For each of these local files, place a line like the following in

=.emacs= to make the source code blocks accessible to the Library:

#+source: load-local-lob

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :exports code

  (org-babel-lob-ingest "~/org/local-lob.org")

#+end_src

If this is off the mark, and the code should go in the main Library, then I'd want to check with Eric F. first about the changes I made.

All the best,

Tom
