Create the following interactive function. This functions exports Org
file to a *pretty* lisp file.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun org-export-as-lisp ()
  (interactive)
  (or (featurep 'pp) (require 'pp))
  (let ((out-file
         (concat (file-name-sans-extension (buffer-file-name)) ".el")))
    (pp-display-expression (org-element-parse-buffer) "*Org Data*")
    (with-current-buffer "*Org Data*"
      (write-file out-file nil))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---



I am attaching sample todo.org and and the todo.el file created by the
above command.



* TODO todo-test
  DEADLINE: <2012-04-19 Thu 13:33>
   :PROPERTIES:
   :notify:   notify-test
   :END:
* TODO todo-test2
  DEADLINE: <2012-05-20 Sun 16:66>
   :PROPERTIES:
   :notify:   notify-test2
   :END:

todo.el
Description: todo.el
