Is the org-mode manual available in .org file?

Question

I would like to read the org-mode manual in org mode... Is there a way to download the manual in .org files?

Thanks, Ani

Answer 1

The Org-Mode manual seems to be written in texinfo format (see the doc directory in the source archive.) You can however convert e.g the HTML version to org-format using pandoc.

Converting from org.texi:

texi2html org.texi org.html
pandoc -t org org.html -o org.org

You can also download my converted version here, the navigational hyperlinks don't work though so the info version is probably more useful. And here is what it looks like.

No.

Read the org-mode manual as all other manuals in emacs : using the info mode :

C-h i m Org Mode RET
