New Video in OrgMode Tutorial Series

Rainer König has posted his latest video in the OrgMode Tutorial series. This time it’s about exporting from Org mode. König begins by remarking that he rarely uses this facility, which surprised me. It surprised me because I am always exporting from Org mode. I use it for the blog posts, of course, but also for lots of other files. This once again shows how people with different needs and workflows can find a comfortable home in the Emacs world.

Although I used export a lot, I rarely export agenda type files so König’s examples were instructive for me. You can fine tune what gets exported by adding a #+OPTION: line at the top of the file. With it, you can inhibit the displaying of TODO type keywords, or you can include additional information such as scheduling data or data in drawers. Take a look at the video for the details.

König says he has about 9 more videos planned. That will be a total of about 35, which will make an excellent video introduction to Org mode. His videos seem to me to be particularly informative and useful so if you’re looking for an introduction to Org mode, this is a good place to start. They’re mostly about 10 minutes so you can watch them as you have time or even binge watch if you like.
