52 Pandoc is the Swiss-army knife to convert files from one markup format
53 into another, it can convert documents from many source format,
54 including Org, to many other.
57 - Author: Enrico Schumann
58 - Homepage: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/orgutils/
61 Helper functions for Org files (<http://orgmode.org/>): a generic function 'toOrg' for transforming R objects into Org markup (most useful for data frames; there are also methods for Dates/POSIXt) and a function to read Org tables into data frames.
64 - Description and examples
65 Convert data.frames into org tables.

173 up your configuration. But with Octopress All of that is already taken care
174 of. Simply clone or fork Octopress, install dependencies and the theme, and
178 You can clone Octopress from [[https://github.com/imathis/octopress][the github repository]].

212 - Authors: Mark Edgington, Christophe-Marie Duquesne

216 org-mode textfile and a Google-tasks task list. It can pull the contents
217 of a Google-tasks list into an org-mode file, or push an org-mode file's
218 contents to a Google-tasks list. It supports bidirectional sync.

252 ** org2remind - perl script to convert org appointments to remind
254 - Author: Matt Lundin
255 - Code: [[file:../code/perl/org2remind.pl][org2remind]]
257 Remind is a command line calendar application for Unix/Linux that
258 can, among other things, spit out formatted plain text calendars and
261 http://www.roaringpenguin.com/products/remind
263 : To convert org-mode appointments to remind data, simply call the
264 : script on one or more org files:
266 : perl org2remind.pl ~/org/*.org
268 : (Optionally, add the script to your path and make it executable.)
270 : The results of this script can saved in a file...
272 : perl org2remind.pl ~/org/*.org >> org.rem
274 : ...or piped directly into a remind command...
276 : perl org2remind.pl ~/org/*.org | remind -
278 : For a nice calendar of the current month, use the following:
280 : perl org2remind.pl ~/org/*.org | remind -c -
282 : This script is similar to org2rem.el (in the contrib directory of the
283 : org-mode repository), except that, instead of saving files from within
284 : org-mode, it allows for easier and faster access to org/remind data
285 : from the command line.
287 : Currently, the script supports appointments (i.e., active timestamps)
288 : and the org-diary-class sexp.

305 ** org-manage - locate and manage your org files
306 - Author: Daniel German
307 - Code: [[http://github.com/dmgerman/org-manage][org-manage]] (based on [[https://github.com/yoshinari-nomura/org-octopress][org-octopress]])
308 - Lists all org files in a given directory and its subdirectories,
309 providing a table of org files, including their title and category.
312 This is a module to help managing a large collection of org files. It
313 is based on org-octopress by Yoshinari Nomura.
315 org-manage scans a given directory (recursively) looking for org
316 files. For each, an entry is created. The title is extracted from the
317 attribute #+TITLE: in the org file. The category is extracted from the

332 :CUSTOM_ID: fix-links
335 - Author: GitHub user cashTangoTangoCash
336 - website: https://github.com/cashTangoTangoCash/orgFixLinks
337 - repairs broken links in org files
338 - currently Linux-only, but probably straighforward to port to Win/Mac?
341 A stand-alone Python script designed to interactively repair broken
342 links to local files in one, many, or all of your org files. OK, it's
343 an amateur command line script that likely needs more refinement, and
344 it chooses to do things that not everyone desires, but you can fork it
345 on GitHub, and adapt it to your own purposes. If you are frustrated
346 by broken links to the degree that you are ready to debug a lengthy
347 Python script, why not play with it. The GitHub wiki
348 https://github.com/cashTangoTangoCash/orgFixLinks/wiki provides a
349 degree of documentation.
