Summary

This is an Org mode document, using the .org extension (supported by GitHub).

Org mode is an easy-to-write plain text formatting syntax for authoring notes, articles, LaTeX documents, books, Web pages, Beamer slide decks and much more!

This is a cheat sheet for Org mode 8 (because of some markup syntax changes since Org mode 7), using ReadTheOrg CSS.

Reading through all the documentation is highly recommended, but for the truly impatient, following are some quick steps to get started.

Document description

#+DESCRIPTION: This document catalogs a set of tips and tricks for composing documents in Org mode.
                #+KEYWORDS:  org-mode, syntax, quick reference, cheat sheet, recommended practices, latex, beamer, html
                #+LANGUAGE:  en
              

Section numbering

#+OPTIONS:   H:4
              
#+OPTIONS:   num:nil
              

Table of contents

Set the toc attribute to activate an auto-generated table of contents (limited to its 2 first levels) at the top of document.

#+OPTIONS:   toc:2
              
#+OPTIONS:   p:t
              

The ALT_TITLE property allows to set an alternate title (shorter, for example) for a given headline in the table of contents and other running heads.

To locally insert the TOC at some random place, use the #+TOC: headlines [n] feature; for example:

#+TOC: headlines 2
              

List of figures

#+TOC: figures is not implemented yet in the HTML backend.

List of tables

#+TOC: tables is already implemented in the HTML backend.

List of equations

Section titles (headings)

* Biggest heading (level 1)

              New chapter.
            
** Bigger heading (level 2)

              New section.

              *** Big heading (level 3)

              New sub-section.

              **** Heading (level 4)

              New sub-sub-section.
            

Numbered headings

You can create numbered headings up to a certain level by setting an option:

#+OPTIONS: H:4
              

Paragraphs

Normal

A single newline has no effect.
                This line is part of the same paragraph.

                But an empty line

                demarcates paragraphs.
              

Line breaks

By entering two consecutive backslashes, \\
                you can force a line break
                without starting a new paragraph.
              

Horizontal rules

For an horizontal line, insert at least 5 dashes: this is some text above an
                horizontal rule
                -----
                and some text below it.
              

Text width

One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.

Formatting text

Text effects.

Bold and italic

/Emphasize/ (italics), *strongly* (bold), and */very strongly/* (bold italics).
              

Markup elements can be nested:

This is /italic text which contains _underlined text_ within it/, whereas _this is
                normal underlined text_.
              

Markup can span across multiple lines, by default no more than 2:

*This
                is not
                bold.*
              

Org mode does not interpret a marker surrounded by alphanumeric characters as an emphasis marker. So, you can't (easily) emphasize just part of a word:

Not feas*ible*.
              

Monospace, superscript and subscript

Other elements to use sparingly are:

- monospaced typewriter font for ~inline code~
                - monospaced typewriter font for =verbatim text=
                - +deleted text+ (vs. _inserted text_)
                - text with super^{script}, such as 2^{10}
                - text with sub_{script}, such as H_{2}O
              

Smart punctuation

If the XXX option is specified, Org mode will produce typographically correct output, converting straight quotes to curly quotes, --- to em-dashes, -- to en-dashes, and ... to ellipses.

Lists

Org markup allows you to create bulleted or numbered lists. It allows any combination of the two list types.

Unordered lists

Itemized lists are marked with bullets. Create them with a minus or a plus sign.

They are convenient to organize data, and make the document prettier, and easier to read.

- Item with some lengthy text wrapping hopefully across several lines. We add
                a few words to really show the line wrapping.
                - Bullet.
                + Bullet.
                * Bullet.
              

Checklists

- [X] Checked.
                - [-] Half-checked.
                - [ ] Not checked.
                - Normal list item.
              

Ordered lists

Enumerated lists are marked with numbers or letters:

1. Arabic (decimal) numbered list item. We add a few words to show the line
                wrapping.
                A. Upper case alpha (letter) numbered list item.
                a. Lower alpha.
                b. Lower alpha.
                B. Upper alpha.
                2. Number.
              

You can have ordered lists with jumping numbers:

2. [@2] We start with point number 2.
                3. Automatically numbered item.
              

Definition lists

Labeled, multi-line lists.

- First term to define ::
                Definition of the first term. We add a few words to show the line wrapping,
                to see what happens when you have long lines.

                - Second term ::
                Explication of the second term with *inline markup*.

                In many paragraphs.
              

Separating lists

Adjacent lists sometimes like to fuse. To force the start of a new list, offset the two lists by an empty line comment:

- apples
                - oranges
                - bananas

                # Comment.

                - carrots
                - tomatoes
                - celery
              

Tables

Tables are one of the most refined areas of the Org mode syntax. They are very easy to create and to read.

Simple table

| Cell in column 1, row 1 | Cell in column 2, row 1 |
                | Cell in column 1, row 2 | Cell in column 2, row 2 |
              

Org tables have cells of at most one line long: there is no such thing as a multi-line table cell in Org.

Column formatting

Columns are automatically aligned:

  • Number-rich columns to the right, and
  • String-rich columns to the left.

Table with aligned cells

If you want to override the automatic alignment, use <r>, <c> or <l>.

#+CAPTION: Table with aligned columns
                  |          <r> | <c>          | <l>          |
                  |            1 | 2            | 3            |
                  |        Right | Center       | Left         |
                  | xxxxxxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxxxxxx | xxxxxxxxxxxx |
                

Table with column size adjusted

Header row

You can create tables with an header row (by using an horizontal line of dashes to separate it from the rest of the table).

#+CAPTION: Table with an header row
                | Name of column 1 | Name of column 2 | Name of column 3 |
                |------------------+------------------+------------------|
                | Top left         | Top middle       |                  |
                |                  |                  | Right            |
                | Bottom left      | Bottom middle    |                  |

Table placement

#+ATTR_LATEX: :center nil
                | a | b |
                | 1 | 2 |
              

XXX Different from the following:

| a | b |
                | 1 | 2 |
              

Align tables on the page

Left

Here is a table on the left side:

#+LATEX: \noindent
                  #+ATTR_LATEX: :center nil
                  | a | b | c |
                  |---+---+---|
                  | 1 | 2 | 3 |
                  | 4 | 5 | 6 |
                  #+LATEX: \hfill
                

The noindent just gets rid of the indentation of the first line of a paragraph which in this case is the table. The hfill adds infinite stretch after the table, so it pushes the table to the left.

Center

Here is a centered table:

| a | b | c |
                  |---+---+---|
                  | 1 | 2 | 3 |
                  | 4 | 5 | 6 |
                

Right

And here's a table on the right side:

#+LATEX: \hfill
                  #+ATTR_LATEX: :center nil
                  | a | b | c |
                  |---+---+---|
                  | 1 | 2 | 3 |
                  | 4 | 5 | 6 |
                

Here the hfill adds infinite stretch before the table, so it pushes the table to the right.

Table size

#+ATTR_HTML: :width 100%
                | Cell in column 1, row 1 | Cell in column 2, row 1 |
                | Cell in column 1, row 2 | Cell in column 2, row 2 |
              

CSV

You can fill a table from a CSV file using R commands.

Images

You can insert image files of different formats to a document:

  HTML PDF
gif yes  
jpeg yes  
png yes  
bmp (depends on browser support)  

Inline picture

#+caption: Org mode logo
                [[file:images/org-mode-unicorn.png]]
              
Click to see the [[file:images/org-mode-unicorn.png][Unicorn picture]].
              

Image alignment (using positioning)

Books usually align/float images on the right/left of the contents.

Image is left aligned

Image is right aligned

Image is centered

Image attributes and values

XXX Available HTML image tags include …

Attribute Value(s)
:alt Alternate text
:height  
:width User defined size in pixels
:align  
:border  
:bordercolor  
:hspace  
:vspace  
:title User defined text
#+ATTR_LaTeX: :width 0.25\linewidth
                [[file:images/org-mode-unicorn.png]]
              

Place images side by side: XXX

Figures

To define images that will be treated as book illustrations (figures) and automatically labeled and numbered, use XXX.

Videos

Videos can't be added directly.

Though, you can add an image with a link to the video like this:

[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnSGSiXYuOk][file:../bigblow.png]]
            

Admonitions

Admonitions (contextual backgrounds) are statements taken out of the content's flow and labeled with a title.

Common admonitions are:

  1. note
  2. warning
  3. tip
  4. caution
  5. important

(Most themes style only note and warning specially.)

Base admonitions

Note

A note box is displayed as follows:

#+begin_note
                  This is a useful note.
                  #+end_note
                

Warning

A warning box is displayed as follows:

#+begin_warning
                  Be careful!  Check that you have...
                  #+end_warning
                

Tip

A tip box is displayed as follows:

#+begin_tip
                  Try doing it this way...
                  #+end_tip
                

Caution

#+begin_caution
                  Caution
                  #+end_caution

#+begin_important
                  Important
                  #+end_important
                

Additional admonitions

Attention

#+begin_attention
                  Attention
                  #+end_attention
                

Hint

#+begin_hint
                  Hint
                  #+end_hint
                

Error

#+begin_error
                  Error
                  #+end_error
                

Danger

#+begin_danger
                  Danger
                  #+end_danger
                

SeeAlso (Sphinx additional)

#+begin_seealso
                  - [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple][Apples]] ::
                  A kind of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit][fruit]].
                  #+end_seealso
                

Todo admonition

Simple box ("inline task"):

#+beginsrc org

  • TODO Do this task

    Description of inline task.

  • END

    #+endsrc

  • TODO Do this task

    Description of inline task.

  • END

    or:

    #+beginsrc org

  • WAIT [#B] Do also this other task   phone
  • END

    #+endsrc

    Admonitiontodo

    Alternatively to the inline tasks (for creating "TODO" annotations), if you want such notes not to show up in the published version, drawers may also do the job, e.g.:

    You can then control what drawers are exported with org-export-with-drawers (or per document with d OPTIONS item).

Centered text

#+begin_left
              This text is \\
              aligned to the left!
              #+end_left

              #+begin_center
              This text is \\
              centered!
              #+end_center

              #+begin_right
              This text is \\
              aligned to the right!
              #+end_right

              Org mode was first released by Carsten Dominik in 2004 as an outlining and
              project planning tool.  Further development turned it into a general tool that
              can be used to author professional documents like LaTeX.

Prose excerpts

Quote

Use the quote block for content that doesn't require the preservation of line breaks.

#+begin_quote
                Let us change our traditional attitude to the construction of programs:
                Instead of imagining that our main task is to instruct a computer what to do,
                let us concentrate rather on explaining to human beings what we want a
                computer to do.

                The practitioner of literate programming can be regarded as an essayist, whose
                main concern is with exposition and excellence of style. Such an author, with
                thesaurus in hand, chooses the names of variables carefully and explains what
                each variable means. He or she strives for a program that is comprehensible
                because its concepts have been introduced in an order that is best for human
                understanding, using a mixture of formal and informal methods that reinforce
                each other.

                -- Donald Knuth
                #+end_quote
              

A short one:

#+begin_quote
                Everything should be made as simple as possible,
                but not any simpler. -- Albert Einstein
                #+end_quote
              

Verse

In a verse environment, there is an implicit line break at the end of each line, and indentation is preserved:

#+begin_verse
                Everything should be made as simple as possible,
                but not any simpler. -- Albert Einstein
                #+end_verse
              

Typically used for quoting passages of an email message:

#+begin_verse
                >>  The meeting has been postponed to next Friday.
                >
                > Has the deadline for the report been moved too?

                Yes.  And chekout http://www.doodle.com/ for rescheduling the meeting.

                In the text body,
                indentation is
                preserved.
                #+end_verse

FIXME Or add/use an Org entity? Or use tilde?

Comments

It's possible to add comments in the document.

              # This Org comment here won't be displayed.
            

Org doesn't support comments inside paragraphs since a comment ends a paragraph. However, you can mimic inline comments with export snippets, e.g., @@comment:...@@.

If you have tables (for example) that you want to ignore during export, one possibility is to use comment blocks or :noexport: subtrees. Another possibility is to use non-exported drawers (see #+OPTIONS: d:).

If you want to ignore that part only during export, but still want to use keep it active in the buffer, I suggest to use a drawer, with an appropriate `org-export-with-drawers' value, e.g.,

#+OPTIONS: d:(not "NOEXPORT")
            

Substitutions

General replacements

#+MACRO: longtext this very very long text

                Insert {{{longtext}}} wherever required.
              

Insert this very very long text wherever required.

Styled references

#+MACRO: color @@html:<span style="color: $1">$2</span>@@

                {{{color(blue, This text is colored in blue.)}}}

                {{{color(red, This other text is in red.)}}}
              

This text is colored in blue.

This other text is in red.

                  - Suits: \clubs \spades
                

You can insert a real "zero-width space" Unicode character by pressing C-x 8 RET zero width space RET or C-x 8 RET 200b RET.

Source code

Inline code

Reference code like ~variables~ or ~functions~ inline.
              

You can also evaluate code inline as follows: 1 + 1 is 1 + 1.

Code blocks (with syntax highlighting)

The source code blocks support syntax highlighting:

/*
                * Application that displays a "Hello" message to the standard output.
                */
                int main(int arc, char **argv)
                {
                printf("Hello, %s!\n", (argc>1) ? argv[1] : "World");
                return 0;
                }
              
(defvar hello "Hello")

                (defun hello (name &optional greeting)
                (message "%s %s" (or greeting "Hello") name))

                (setq tab-width 4)
              

You need htmlize.el in your load-path, for the HTML export.

Source mode

The following language strings are currently recognized:

Awk, C, R, Asymptote, Calc, Clojure, CSS, Ditaa, Dot, Emacs Lisp, Fortran, Gnuplot, Haskell, IO, J, Java, Javascript, LaTeX, Ledger, Lilypond, Lisp, Makefile, Maxima, Matlab, Mscgen, Ocaml, Octave, Org, Perl, Pico Lisp, PlantUML, Python, Ruby, Sass, Scala, Scheme, Screen, Shell Script, Shen, Sql, Sqlite, ebnf2ps.

Line break

Code block with long lines:

testing testing testing testing testing testing testing testing testing testing
                0        1         2         3         4         5         6         7         8         9
                123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456
              

For PDF (LaTeX), one solution is to surround the code block such as:

print("This block is in scriptsize")
              

Line numbers

Both in example and in src snippets, you can add a -n switch to the end of the begin line to get the lines numbered:

1: (defun org-xor (a b)
                2:   "Exclusive or."
              

If you use a +n switch, the numbering from the previous numbered snippet will be continued in the current one:

3: (if a (not b) b))
              

Callouts

In literal examples, Org will interpret strings like (ref:name) as labels, and use them as targets for special hyperlinks like [[(name)]] (i.e., the reference name enclosed in single parenthesis). In HTML, hovering the mouse over such a link will remote-highlight the corresponding code line, which is kind of cool.

You can also add a -r switch which removes the labels from the source code. With the -n switch, links to these references will be labeled by the line numbers from the code listing, otherwise links will use the labels with no parentheses. Here is an example:

1: (save-excursion                  ;
                2:   (goto-char (point-min)))       ;
              

In line 1, we remember the current position. Line 2 jumps to point-min.

Math

You can embed LaTeX math formatting in Org mode files.

Inline math expressions

For inline math expressions, use the parentheses notation \(...\):

The formula \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\) has been discovered by Pythagoras.

                Let \(a=\sin(x) + \cos(x)\). Then \(a^2 = 2\sin(x)\cos(x)\) because \(\sin^2x +
                \cos^2x = 1\).
              

It's not advised to use the $...$ construct (both for Org and for MathJax).

Don't forget that $ is also a valid currency symbol!

Math expressions in display mode

For mathematical expressions which you want to make stand out, centered on their own lines, use \[...\]:

The /Euler theorem/:

                \[
                \int_0^\infty e^{-x^2} dx = {{\sqrt{\pi}} \over {2}}
                \]

                LaTeX allows to inline such ~\[...\]~ constructs (/quadratic formula/):
                \[ \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4 a c}}{2a} \]
              

Double dollar signs ($$) should not be used.

\[
                \left( \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\sin x}{\sqrt x}\,\mathrm{d}x \
                right)^{2} -
                \prod_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{4k^{2}}{4k^{2}-1} +
                \frac{\lambda}{2n}\sum_{k=1} ^{n} \theta_{k} ^{2} x^{n} = 0
                \]
              

The equation may be wrong, but it's a nice one!

Equation numbers

Differently from $...$ and \(...\), an equation environment produces a numbered equation to which you can add a label and reference the equation by (label) name in other parts of the text. This is not possibly with unnumbered math environments ($$, …).

The /Pythagoras theorem/:

                #+name: pythag
                \begin{equation}
                a^2 + b^2 = c^2
                \end{equation}

                See equation [[pythag]].

                # The /sinus theorem/ can be written as the equation:
                #
                # \begin{equation}
                # \label{eqn:sinalpha}
                # \frac{\sin\alpha}{a}=\frac{\sin\beta}{b}
                # \end{equation}
                #
                # See equation [[eqn:sinalpha]].
              

Only captioned equations are numbered.

Other alternatives: use

  • \begin{equation*} or
  • \begin{displaymath} (= the verbose form of the \[...\] construct).

M-q does not fill those.

Miscellaneous effects

Include Org files

You can include another Org file and skip its title by using the :lines argument to #+INCLUDE:

#+INCLUDE: "chapter1.org" :lines "2-"
              

File inclusion, through INCLUDE keywords, is an export-only feature.

Raw HTML

You can include raw HTML in your Org documents and it will get kept as HTML when it's exported.

Text can be preformatted (in a fixed-width font).

It is especially useful for more advanced stuff like images or tables where you need more control of the HTML options than Org mode actually gives you.

Similarly, you can incorporate JS or do anything else you can do in a Web page (such as importing a CSS file).

Native DIV blocks

You can create named classes (to get style control from your CSS) with:

                #+begin_myclass
                This text is wrapped in a myclass DIV...
                #+end_myclass
              

You can also add interactive elements to the HTML such as interactive R plots.

Finally, you can include an HTML file verbatim (during export) with:

#+INCLUDE: "file.html" export html
                

Don't edit the exported HTML file!

Raw LaTeX

You can also use raw LaTeX. XXX

Text can be preformatted (in a fixed-width font).

Useful extensions

Todo extension

Dates

Timestamps: [2014-01-16 Thu] and <2014-01-16 Thu>.

TODO We need to achieve…

DONE [A] Buy GTD book   online

By default, DONE actions will be collapsed.

Note that I should probably implement that default behavior only for ARCHIVE'd items.

TODO [A] Read GTD book

SCHEDULED: <2014-09-11 Thu>

By default, all (active) entries will be expanded at page load, so that their contents is visible.

That can be changed by adding such a line (into your Org document):

#+HTML_HEAD: <script> var HS_STARTUP_FOLDED = true; </script>
                

TODO [B] Apply GTD methodoloy

DEADLINE: <2014-12-01 Mon>

This section will be collapsed when loading the page because the entry has the value hsCollapsed for the property :HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS:.

Powerful, no?

Some note   computer write

You can add tags to any entry, and hightlight all entries having some specific tag by clicking on the buttons made accessible to you in the "Dashboard".

Weekly review   computer

Now, you can even make your weekly review in the HTML export… Press the r key to start entering the "review mode" where all but one active entry are collapsed, so that you can really focus on one item at a time!

Bigblow extension

The string fixme (in upper case) gets replaced by a "Fix Me!" image:

FIXME Delete this...
              

Graphs with Graphviz

To enable the Graphviz extension, we have to add it to the extensions list in the org-babel-load-languages variable.

(add-to-list 'org-babel-load-languages '(dot . t))
              (org-babel-do-load-languages 'org-babel-load-languages org-babel-load-languages)
            

It uses directly the dot command to process DOT language.

Undirected

#+begin_src dot :file images/graph.png :cmdline -Tpng
                graph foo {
                "bar" -- "baz";
                }
                #+end_src
              

Directed

Graphs with R

The output from the execution of programs, scripts or commands can be inserted in the document itself, allowing you to work in the reproducible research mindset.

To enable the Graphviz extension, we have to add it to the extensions list in the org-babel-load-languages variable.

(add-to-list 'org-babel-load-languages '(R . t)) ; Requires R and ess-mode.
              (org-babel-do-load-languages 'org-babel-load-languages org-babel-load-languages)
            

It uses directly the R command to process R language.
