Literate Programming in Org

This is a book on Literate Programming in Emacs using Org Mode.

The goal is to write the book as an org document, and then export it as:

• Info, readable in Emacs
• PDF and Epub, readable on devices
• HTML to be viewable as a web page in EWW
• Org, downloadable and useful when this project is cloned

A question on interactive-ness. Since the goal is to teach LP through Emacs (and not just a general guide on LP), we want the text viewable in Emacs, so that code can be easily copy/pasted into their own notes, as well as allowing the user to enter C-x C-e on any s-expression.

To render and read the book in Info, execute the following:

  (progn
    (ignore-errors
      (kill-buffer "lp-in-org.info"))
    (find-file "lp-in-org.org")
    (find-file (org-texinfo-export-to-info))
    (Info-mode)
    (Info-top-node))
