Complete literate programming is not possible at this time. The smallest possible step towards that goal is to make the molecular images reproducible because the files involved are on 1-100 MB in size. + - Questioner: I assume that's why there might be lag with several images rendered on an org buffer? +- I was specifically interested in your workflow with managing citations and papers as I'm sure you have to do, is there anything in particular you use for citation management? + - Blaine: I switched to Emacs as my primary editor 3 months ago. I have yet to write a paper in Org. I am very comfortable with LaTeX and I have been writing my papers on Overleaf in LaTeX for several years. I used bibtex and JabRef to manage by references. I have started playing by org-ref. It looks super promising. + - Questioner: I still use zotero and biblatex, but the previous two talks about org-ref got me thinking about my workflow +- Have you used Org Mode and pyMOL for publications? Could you share a link to any of them? + - Blaine: I have yet to use org in a publication. The first step will be to use it for supplemental material. + - thanks, makes sense, I'm off in a part of the python world where code base churn can be pretty severe; but it sounds like pymol is able to avoid those issues + - Blaine: PyMOL as a domain specific language that is very stable. The transition from Python2 to Python3 as bit disruptive. +- Hi Blaine, you mentioned that you have been able to come back to a file years later, how do you manage the environment that the org file executes in? + - Blaine: Good question. The PyMOL code is good for years so the images should be reproducible regardless of the version of org. + +BBB feedback: +- Blane, great job with the talk. Awesome presentation. + - I know people loved it in the IRC chat :D +- I can share that I was excited to see how you made things so seamless and integrated feeling into Emacs. The results are really eyepopping. + + +IRC discussion: + - which is the package name for export org mode to pymol? - the async header argument can be helpful with the problem of the amount of time for generating the images - think of this is use case explication for being able to manage and render 3d models in org |
