+This article explains in detail the process of setting up a bare-bones website
+using Hugo and org-mode. My goal in writing this is to provide readers with a
+superior understanding of the fundamentals of this workflow. It is by no means
+an exhaustive explanation of org-mode or Emacs, but should give readers of any
+skill level a strong foundation to apply their own knowledge and techniques to
+the Emacs-Hugo toolchain.
+
+I assume only beginner-level knowledge of Emacs.
+
+*** Intro & Setup
+[[https://github.com/kaushalmodi][Kaushal Modi]] made ox-hugo by extending org's ox-blackfriday package, providing
+an impressive amount of features for organizing blog text and linked data with
+Hugo. He maintains [[https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/][great documentation]] and ample [[https://github.com/kaushalmodi/ox-hugo/tree/master/test/site/content-org][examples]] for using the
+package. I will explain my own workflow here, but for an exhaustive (though
+terse) reference, I highly recommend Modi's [[https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/test/][test site]] and [[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kaushalmodi/ox-hugo/master/test/site/content-org/all-posts.org][post source]] org file,
+which contain demonstrations and tests for all of ox-hugo's features.
+
+After issuing the Emacs command ~M-x package-install RET ox-hugo RET~, you'll
+need to ~require~ it. You can do this by running ~M-: (require 'ox-hugo)~, but
+you'll want to add it to your configuration as explained [[https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/doc/usage/][here]]. Once this is
+done, using ox-hugo is just a matter of making an org file and writing
+content. Org's format is very straightforward, and is designed to make sense to
+the reader even if they're unfamiliar with the formal syntax. For instance,
+#+begin_src org
+,* My food
+| Where's My Food? | Fridge | Counter | Mouth | Total |
+| Oranges | 1 | 3 | 0 | :=vsum($2..$4) |
+| Marshmallows | 0 | 100 | 20 | :=vsum($2..$4) |
+| Brussel Sprouts | 32 | 4 | 0 | :=vsum($2..$4) |
+#+end_src
+Produces a dynamic spreadsheet table in org-mode that exports to HTML like this:
+**** My food
+| Where's My Food? | Fridge | Counter | Mouth | Total |
+| Oranges | 1 | 3 | 0 | 4 |
+| Marshmallows | 0 | 100 | 20 | 120 |
+| Brussel Sprouts | 32 | 4 | 0 | 36 |
+#+TBLFM: @2$5=vsum($2..$4)::@3$5=vsum($2..$4)::@4$5=vsum($2..$4)
+
+If you're already familiar with org-mode, the benefits are obvious and creating
+content is fairly trivial. Org-mode is, however, a complex and expansive program
+with many features, and its learning curve can appear daunting at first glance.
+Using ox-hugo is a great way to learn the format, since it gives the author a
+command-center view of their entire content hierarchy, much like a traditional
+database, but in a flat format that's much easier to read and understand. Org
+features present themselves naturally, and the author can easily visualize the
+correspondence between the org format and the output on their webpage.
+
+Just take a look at the [[https://www.kengrimes.com/gitweb/?p=kengrimes.com/content.git;a=blob_plain;f=content.org;hb=HEAD][org file]] for this webpage. Search for "ox-hugo is super
+cool!" and you should find this very paragraph.
+
+Eventually you'll want to [[https://orgmode.org/manual/][read the manual]], though. You may access it in Emacs
+with ~M-x org-info~.
+
+*** Making a New Blog
+Compared to a generic org file, the only important "extra" data that ox-hugo
+needs to properly export data is a ~:PROPERTIES: ... :END:~ block with
+definitions used for Hugo's [[https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter/][front matter]] (used for associating a title, header,
+or other custom data with the page it generates). ~:PROPERTIES:~ blocks are
+common in org for defining arbitrary metadata about sections, and can be used in
+many such ways. Providing an ~:EXPORT_FILE_NAME:~ definition signals to ox-hugo
+that this heading is available for export, and that it should be exported to a
+markdown file with the name provided. For example, the ~:PROPERTIES:~ block of
+the page you're currently reading looks like this:
+#+begin_src org
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: ox-hugo
+:EXPORT_HUGO_CUSTOM_FRONT_MATTER: :caption "Exporting to Hugo's Blackfriday Markdown from Orgmode"
+:EXPORT_HUGO_CUSTOM_FRONT_MATTER+: :header /img/org.png
+:END:
+#+end_src
+The ~:caption~ and ~:header~ variables are optional definitions allowed by the
+Speedy theme of this website, but the filename is the only required property for
+ox-hugo. So, as a minimal example, here's what a new blog might look like in its
+entirety:
+#+begin_src org -n
+#+hugo_base_dir: .
+,* Home
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+This is the home of my blog!
+,** I have herpes
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: herpes
+:END:
+Someone gave me herpes! Oh no!
+#+end_src
+The org file can be placed in any directory so long as ~HUGO_BASE_DIR~ correctly
+identifies the Hugo project's root directory. This path definition is required
+for any valid ox-hugo file, and in the example above uses ~.~ as the base
+directory, which assumes that the file will be placed in the hugo project's base
+directory. If you saved this file as hugotest.org, exported it with org's
+exporter ~C-c C-e~ and selected the Hugo output ~H~ and the All Subtrees To
+Files option ~A~, you'd wind up with the following files in your directory:
+#+begin_src
+.
+├── content
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── herpes.md
+└── hugotest.org
+#+end_src
+Most sites will be more than a blog, though, and will want multiple sections. In
+fact, many sites are made up of nothing but a slew of sections that users
+navigate between with some built-in menu. So a more functional minimal example
+would be the following:
+#+begin_src org -n
+#+hugo_base_dir: .
+,* My Homepage
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:END:
+This is the home of my blog!
+,* My Blog
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: posts
+:END:
+,** My Blog Homepage
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+Man, look at all my blog posts.
+,** I have herpes
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: herpes
+:END:
+Someone gave me herpes! Oh no!
+#+end_src
+Which yields the following:
+#+begin_src
+.
+├── content
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── posts
+│ ├── herpes.md
+│ └── _index.md
+└── hugotest.org
+#+end_src
+As you might expect, this structure adheres to the Hugo [[https://gohugo.io/content-management/organization/][content management]]
+scheme. Additionally, the index files have been marked with menu metadata, which
+allows Hugo themes to automatically generate navigation menus from the markdown
+files. Hereafter, making new blog posts is as simple as adding new sub-headings
+under the "My Blog" heading, and exporting. As you can see, this is suitable for
+defining the hierarchical structure of any general website, not just
+blogs. Org-mode and Hugo just make creating new pages so simple and
+well-structured that providing content is all that's required for a new page,
+blog entry, or entirely new site section. If you can blog with ox-hugo, you can
+deftly deploy any manner of web content, or even develop entire websites as
+naturally as you make blog posts. Any tool that can turn blogging and web
+development into the same task is quite an achievement!
+
+Of course, themes to style this content are another can of worms entirely, but
+it is sufficient for now to mention that Hugo makes [[https://gohugo.io/themes/installing-and-using-themes/][using themes]] as easy as
+downloading one and specifying it in Hugo's config file.
+
+One question you may ask is why the blog's homepage is not defined in the *My
+Blog* heading. This is a fair question! Property blocks are inherited by
+sub-headings, and as of the current version of ox-hugo even ~:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU:~
+properties are inherited. This might be intended by the content creator, but
+most likely you don't want every single post you make to be in the main menu. So
+it makes sense to define all your pages, including the index, as a sub-heading
+of the section definition (which specifies which sub-directory content will
+output to).
+
+To illustrate, let's assume you want to extend the previous site definition with
+a section about fishsticks.
+#+begin_src org -n 24
+,* Fishsticks
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: fishsticks
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+This section devoted to Orson Wells, R.I.P.
+,** Van De Camps
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: van-de-camps
+:END:
+If this is fish, I'll be a monkey's uncle.
+,** Gortons
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: gortons
+:END:
+I think these gave me the herpes.
+#+end_src
+In this example, we've defined the main homepage of the section inside the
+tier-1 heading for Fishsticks. This is valid, and produces the expected file output:
+#+begin_src
+.
+├── content
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ ├── gortons.md
+│ │ ├── _index.md
+│ │ └── van-de-camps.md
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── posts
+│ ├── herpes.md
+│ └── _index.md
+└── hugotest.org
+#+end_src
+But on inspection of the gortons.md file, we find the anomoly mentioned above:
+#+begin_src markdown -n
+---
+title: "Gortons"
+author: ["Ken Grimes"]
+draft: false
+menu:
+ main:
+ weight: 2002
+ identifier: "gortons"
+---
+
+I think these gave me the herpes.
+#+end_src
+Uh oh! Not only did these fishsticks give us herpes, they are now part of the
+main menu. Tisk tisk. So if you use this workflow, be sure to put your index
+pages in subheadings so that the tier-1 heading can be used for "global"
+definitions that affect all of the pages.
+
+Another question might be why the index pages are named *_index*. You can use
+*index* instead of *_index*, the only difference is whether Hugo treats the
+index page as a leaf, or a branch, when [[https://gohugo.io/content-management/page-bundles/][bundling resources]] for Hugo to query
+during site generation. This is a relatively new addition to Hugo as of version
+0.39, and isn't fully functional or integrated well into ox-hugo, so I simply
+don't use it at the moment. I define all indexes as *_index* to make them
+branches because, in future versions, packaging files within bundles like this
+will provide a more stable way for Hugo themes to reference page- and
+section-specific files that accompany the content. Currently, I store all such
+files in the static folder, which is copied verbatim to the output directory by
+Hugo when the site is built.
+
+*** Hugo Setup
+At this point, setting up Hugo and publishing is simple. [[https://gohugo.io/getting-started/installing/][Installing]] Hugo is
+pretty straightforward on any Unix-like system with a package manager; it is
+available on most distributions at this point. Windows installation is a bigger
+pain in the ass, but you should be used to that if you're still in the
+stone-age.
+
+Using ~hugo new site .~ on the command-line will create a new hugo site in the
+current directory, but ~hugo~ expects to be creating a new directory with this
+command and will complain if it already exists. It also provides the ~--force~
+option to allow creating a new site in an extant directory, but this too will
+fail if the *content* subdirectory already exists (which ox-hugo will create
+when you export).
+
+So you have three choices:
+1. run ~hugo new site /path/to/some-new-dir~ and move your org file to it
+2. simply ~rm -Rf content/~ to remove the content directory ox-hugo created,
+ then run ~hugo new site --force .~
+3. don't even bother with the ~hugo new site~ command, and make a *config.toml*
+ file manually.
+
+It's convenient to do this through the ~hugo~ command because it will create
+Hugo-specific subdirectories like archetypes, layouts, themes, etcetera, in
+addition to populating a basic *config.toml* file. The subdirectories it creates
+aren't necessary, but help illustrate Hugo's structure. In any case, you'll want
+to wind up with a directory structure something like this (created with option 2
+above, extending from previous examples):
+#+begin_src
+.
+├── archetypes
+│ └── default.md
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+├── data
+├── hugotest.org
+├── layouts
+├── static
+└── themes
+#+end_src
+Exporting with ox-hugo using ~C-c C-e H A~ again will, as expected, fill the
+content directory with our content.
+#+begin_src
+.
+├── archetypes
+│ └── default.md
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ ├── gortons.md
+│ │ ├── _index.md
+│ │ └── van-de-camps.md
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── posts
+│ ├── herpes.md
+│ └── _index.md
+├── data
+├── hugotest.org
+├── layouts
+├── static
+└── themes
+#+end_src
+Now, running the command ~hugo~ with no subcommands will invoke the Hugo
+generator on the current directory, and output finalized content in the
+*public/* directory.
+#+begin_src
+.
+├── archetypes
+│ └── default.md
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ ├── gortons.md
+│ │ ├── _index.md
+│ │ └── van-de-camps.md
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── posts
+│ ├── herpes.md
+│ └── _index.md
+├── data
+├── hugotest.org
+├── layouts
+├── public
+│ ├── categories
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── index.xml
+│ ├── posts
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── sitemap.xml
+│ └── tags
+│ └── index.xml
+├── static
+└── themes
+#+end_src
+Hugo, by default, generates xml files that are suitable for RSS feeds. With a
+theme installed, Hugo will produce more suitable web content (usually
+HTML). You'll notice from this default output however that Hugo creates a
+sitemap, and two directories for [[https://gohugo.io/content-management/taxonomies/][taxonomies]] that let you "tag" and "categorize"
+content. The taxonomy index pages allow users to browse content by category or
+tag. These taxonomies correspond to org-mode tags, and ox-hugo will
+automatically associated tagged headings with the tags taxonomy, or the
+categories taxonomy if prefixed with an @ symbol. You are free to define your
+own taxonomies, and even disable the default "tags" and "categories" taxonomies,
+but since org-mode tags directly translate to the default Hugo taxonomies, it
+makes sense to just use the default taxonomies for now.
+
+*** Example Hugo Site
+As an example, let's add some tags and categories to our *hugotest.org* file:
+#+begin_src org -n
+#+hugo_base_dir: .
+,* My Homepage
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:END:
+This is the home of my blog!
+,* My Blog
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: posts
+:END:
+,** My Blog Homepage
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+Man, look at all my blog posts.
+,** I have herpes :@inanity:herpes:fear:
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: herpes
+:END:
+Someone gave me herpes! Oh no!
+,* Fishsticks
:PROPERTIES:
-:EXPORT_HUGO_CUSTOM_FRONT_MATTER: :caption '("A Nonnormative Tomorrow")
-:EXPORT_HUGO_CUSTOM_FRONT_MATTER+: :header /img/blog.png
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: fishsticks
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
-:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main" :weight -1
:END:
+This section devoted to Orson Wells, R.I.P.
+,** Van De Camps :@inanity:
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: van-de-camps
+:END:
+If this is fish, I'll be a monkey's uncle.
+,** Gortons :@inanity:herpes:
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: gortons
+:END:
+I think these gave me the herpes.
+#+end_src
+Exporting *hugotest.org* with ~C-c C-e H A~ and generate with ~hugo~ will yield
+the same file structure as before, but this time we'll see that the categories
+and tags directories have sections for our newly added tags.
+#+begin_src
+.
+├── archetypes
+│ └── default.md
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ ├── gortons.md
+│ │ ├── _index.md

+#+end_src
+The index pages of taxonomies provide a list of all available taxonomies of that
+type, with links to lists that show content associated with that taxonomy. For
+instance, public/tags/index.xml looks like this:
+#+begin_src xml -n

+#+end_src
+This allows themes to easily build navigation pages for browsing or querying
+taxonomies. Files like these are often useful to output as JSON (done by the
+theme) to allow Javascript-driven dynamic search features, but a simpler scheme
+can output HTML pages to browse taxonomies just as you would posts in a section
+(i.e. org-mode heading).
+
+**** Theming
+The last thing to do here is to download or create a theme for Hugo. As
+mentioned before, installing a theme is very simple. This blog uses a custom
+theme named Speedy that I have been developing to help myself learn Hugo's
+internals, but for this example I'll be using Kaushal Modi's [[https://github.com/kaushalmodi/hugo-bare-min-theme][bare-min theme]]. The
+bare-min theme is the best starting place out there for making new themes, and
+outputs basic HTML pages without any need to mess with CSS or JS. It also
+provides easy debugging facilities and search features.
+
+We'll just install it and generate the site again. You can download the theme
+from its github page and extract it to the themes folder, or much more easily
+use git to clone it to your themes directory.
+~git clone https://github.com/kaushalmodi/hugo-bare-min-theme.git themes/bare-min~
+Then open up your *config.toml* file, and add the theme.
+#+begin_src toml -n
+baseURL = "http://example.org/"
+languageCode = "en-us"
+title = "My New Hugo Site"
+# Adding a theme:
+theme = "bare-min"
+#+end_src
+Be sure that the theme's name matches the theme directory's name in the themes/
+directory of your project base directory. (e.g. themes/bare-min here).
+
+That's it for installing the theme. Just run ~hugo~ again, and behold your output:
+#+begin_src
+.
+└── public
+ ├── categories

+ └── index.xml
+#+end_src
+The bare-min theme outputs HTML, provides CSS for doing chroma-based syntax
+highlighting (in case you include code blocks), and inline styles for basic
+page formatting. Generated pages also have a lot of useful debugging information.
+
+You can now serve the *public/* directory over an HTTP server. Hugo is packaged
+with an internal [[https://gohugo.io/commands/hugo_server/][HTTP server]] to help with testing, which is quite convenient
+because it can automatically refresh whenever content in its content directory
+is updated (so when you export from ox-hugo, you don't have to run ~hugo~
+again). To use it, simply run ~hugo server~ and point your browser at
+http://localhost:1313 (1313 is the default ~--port~ argument for ~hugo server~).
+
+Eventually you'll want to move on to other themes, or develop your own, but at
+this point you've got a fully functional blog publishing workflow from start to
+finish.
+
+*** Attaching Files, Capturing Information & Automation
+Once you have a basic site structured in your org file, you're ready to start
+throwing information in it. It is of course sufficient to open the org file and
+edit it, but most org-mode users prefer to automate /everything/, and being able
+to use org's capture feature to instantly populate new blog posts is extremely
+convenient.
+
+The [[https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/][ox-hugo documentation]] provides succinct explanations on how to do this,
+including elisp snippets for [[https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/doc/org-capture-setup/][capture setup]], [[https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/doc/images-in-content/][image linking]], and [[https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/doc/auto-export-on-saving/][automating
+exports]] when you save your org file (so no more need to ~C-c C-e H A~ every

+Hi! I'm Ken, a 34-year-old computer scientist currently living in Irvine,
+California. This is a website I've constructed for the purpose of developing
+web-facing software. I will probably blog with it once development is
+complete. In the mean time, if you're curious, this is my [[file:static/cv.pdf][curriculum vitae]]
+* COMMENT
+** Why Emacs/Org
+#+attr_html: :class center
+[[file:static/img/emacs-logo.png]]
+
+Org-mode is sometimes seen as an esoteric tool for an already esoteric IDE
+(Emacs), but to me it is the natural evolution of decades of careful work to do
+things the right way. When a software developer, after much study and
+deliberation, finally comes to the realization that we are all fundamentally
+programming one enormous system, it suddenly becomes important to understand the
+fundamentals of computing and peel away the abstractions we live in like layers
+of an onion. At the core, computer scientists will find that Names and Naming
+are the universal "API" with which we all work. As such, being able to work with
+raw words is invaluable to any serious student of computing. This is why the
+much ignored medium of plain text is, somewhat paradoxically, the most powerful
+of all tools for us. Indeed, Names and Naming have a long history of association
+with power, and it seems most sciences that recognize this relationship are
+themselves deemed "esoteric".
+
+It's easy to get washed away in the torrent of new-age development tools that
+add layer after layer of abstraction and "boilerplate" automation. These days,
+it's trivial with tools like [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webstorm][Webstorm]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode][Xcode]], or [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Studio][Visual Studio]] to start
+producing working code in minutes, regardless of experience or knowledge. It is
+much harder, and in many environments impossible, to really understand what you
+are doing. Most new programming languages, freed from developing sophisticated
+compiler backends by new tools like [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/llvm][llvm]], have instead focused on providing
+tooling for automatically formatting, linting, bootstrapping, and even building
+code to make this process even easier. These tools enforce an opinionated
+workflow that, although good, are generally not portable to other languages or
+toolchains. Tools like these are medicine for remedying the enormous time sink
+and productivity loss suffered during configuration and setup. But like many
+medicines, they can lead to addiction, and dependency on the vendor who provided
+it. Eventually, being constrained to a single environment will cause essential
+skills to atrophy, or never develop in the first place, making the victim a
+slave to both their vendor and the drug.
+
+I'm no tea-totaller, though. These tools are part of my regular workflow, and I
+advocate using them when it is appropriate. The primary goal in developing
+skills is to unapolagetically empower yourself by /any/ means necessary. It's a
+balancing act, in the end, whether the drugs are hurting or hindering. Just be
+conscious of the debilitating effects of what the buzz-slingers call "vendor
+lock-in" these days. Study the topic, read the documentation, and understand
+everything that is going to happen when you invoke any command. This applies to
+tooling as well as library functions and even language statements - even
+english. Admittedly, that's a steep mountain to climb for most people, and
+crippling when wading through spaghetti-code, but you'll come to understand that
+the most powerful words are the ones you /didn't have to say/ in the first
+place.
+
+Emacs and Org-mode take these philosophies to heart in different, and incomplete
+ways. Org-mode is a plain text formatting system, not so dissimilar to markdown,
+bbcode, or even twitter's automatic recognition of hashtags and @s. It's a
+formatting engine that recognizes certain plain-text patterns as having special
+meanings, geared eponymously towards organization of data. For instance,
+
+
+
+Emacs and Org-mode take these philosophies to heart. Partly because Emacs has
+been around in some form since the early 70s, While I extend this philosophy to
+my coding style, it's also integral

+** OS Wars
+The operating system wars are still going, they've just taken on a new form: the
+ecosystems of major software development centers like microsoft, facebook,
+google, apple, amazon, have just become the new battleground. All of these
+ecosystems are seeking to replace the entire unix operating system stack with
+their own internal APIs and code. from writing code in awk/sed/bash to utilize
+the OS's commands as an api, to generalizing this in python-esque languages, and
+now to new programming frameworks for every language which package endless
+libraries that are just sloppy new rewrites of decades-old functionality already
+in the GNU environment. the good news is that there's a ton of energy going into
+language research, compilers, and there are many new emerging standards as a
+result for message sending (alan kay "real objects"), network federation,
+package management, build tools, live coding, web technology, execution
+platforms, and everything in between. the bad news is that basically all energy
+is just going towards building, and rebuilding, and rebuilding application
+frameworks. Call them libraries, packages, eggs, utilities, or whatever, they're
+all just another incomplete rewrite of tools that have been around and
+maintained for over half a century. They're easier to use, which is great, but
+that user interface (i.e. language syntax and package management) doesn't need
+to be divorced from existing functionality. As far as I can figure, it's just
+gouche, or somehow seen as less sophisticated and interesting, if a language
+keeps C dependencies after a certain point. Almost all languages start out their
+life as C programs, and it's considered a major milestone when the language's
+compiler can finally compile itself and become self-hosting. All this proves is
+that the language can generate a compiler, though. It's a sloppy metric of
+progress. It's another major milestone when the language's libraries no longer
+have any C library dependencies (i.e. all commonly used APIs for handling i18n,
+unicode, hashtables, etcetera, have been reinvented in the new
+language). And perhaps its greatest achievement of all is to remove dependence
+on libc - the single most rugged and well-tested system interface on the
+planet.

+What I'd really like to see is a language that

+---
+
+This article explains in detail the process of setting up a bare-bones website
+using Hugo and org-mode. My goal in writing this is to provide readers with a
+superior understanding of the fundamentals of this workflow. It is by no means
+an exhaustive explanation of org-mode or Emacs, but should give readers of any
+skill level a strong foundation to apply their own knowledge and techniques to
+the Emacs-Hugo toolchain.
+
+I assume only beginner-level knowledge of Emacs.
+
+
+# Intro & Setup {#intro-and-setup}
+
+[Kaushal Modi](https://github.com/kaushalmodi) made ox-hugo by extending org's ox-blackfriday package, providing
+an impressive amount of features for organizing blog text and linked data with
+Hugo. He maintains [great documentation](https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/) and ample [examples](https://github.com/kaushalmodi/ox-hugo/tree/master/test/site/content-org) for using the
+package. I will explain my own workflow here, but for an exhaustive (though
+terse) reference, I highly recommend Modi's [test site](https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/test/) and [post source](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kaushalmodi/ox-hugo/master/test/site/content-org/all-posts.org) org file,
+which contain demonstrations and tests for all of ox-hugo's features.
+
+After issuing the Emacs command `M-x package-install RET ox-hugo RET`, you'll
+need to `require` it. You can do this by running `M-: (require 'ox-hugo)`, but
+you'll want to add it to your configuration as explained [here](https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/doc/usage/). Once this is
+done, using ox-hugo is just a matter of making an org file and writing
+content. Org's format is very straightforward, and is designed to make sense to
+the reader even if they're unfamiliar with the formal syntax. For instance,
+
+```org
+* My food
+| Where's My Food? | Fridge | Counter | Mouth | Total |

+

+
+| Where's My Food? | Fridge | Counter | Mouth | Total |
+|------------------|--------|---------|-------|-------|
+| Oranges | 1 | 3 | 0 | 4 |
+| Marshmallows | 0 | 100 | 20 | 120 |
+| Brussel Sprouts | 32 | 4 | 0 | 36 |
+
+If you're already familiar with org-mode, the benefits are obvious and creating
+content is fairly trivial. Org-mode is, however, a complex and expansive program
+with many features, and its learning curve can appear daunting at first glance.
+Using ox-hugo is a great way to learn the format, since it gives the author a
+command-center view of their entire content hierarchy, much like a traditional
+database, but in a flat format that's much easier to read and understand. Org
+features present themselves naturally, and the author can easily visualize the
+correspondence between the org format and the output on their webpage.
+
+Just take a look at the [org file](https://www.kengrimes.com/gitweb/?p=kengrimes.com/content.git;a=blob_plain;f=content.org;hb=HEAD) for this webpage. Search for "ox-hugo is super
+cool!" and you should find this very paragraph.
+
+Eventually you'll want to [read the manual](https://orgmode.org/manual/), though. You may access it in Emacs
+with `M-x org-info`.
+
+
+# Making a New Blog {#making-a-new-blog}
+
+Compared to a generic org file, the only important "extra" data that ox-hugo
+needs to properly export data is a `:PROPERTIES: ... :END:` block with
+definitions used for Hugo's [front matter](https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter/) (used for associating a title, header,
+or other custom data with the page it generates). `:PROPERTIES:` blocks are
+common in org for defining arbitrary metadata about sections, and can be used in
+many such ways. Providing an `:EXPORT_FILE_NAME:` definition signals to ox-hugo
+that this heading is available for export, and that it should be exported to a
+markdown file with the name provided. For example, the `:PROPERTIES:` block of
+the page you're currently reading looks like this:
+
+```org
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: ox-hugo
+:EXPORT_HUGO_CUSTOM_FRONT_MATTER: :caption "Exporting to Hugo's Blackfriday Markdown from Orgmode"
+:EXPORT_HUGO_CUSTOM_FRONT_MATTER+: :header /img/org.png
+:END:
+```
+
+The `:caption` and `:header` variables are optional definitions allowed by the
+Speedy theme of this website, but the filename is the only required property for
+ox-hugo. So, as a minimal example, here's what a new blog might look like in its
+entirety:
+
+{{< highlight org "linenos=table, linenostart=1" >}}
+#+hugo_base_dir: .
+* Home
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+This is the home of my blog!
+** I have herpes
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: herpes
+:END:
+Someone gave me herpes! Oh no!
+{{< /highlight >}}
+
+The org file can be placed in any directory so long as `HUGO_BASE_DIR` correctly
+identifies the Hugo project's root directory. This path definition is required
+for any valid ox-hugo file, and in the example above uses `.` as the base
+directory, which assumes that the file will be placed in the hugo project's base
+directory. If you saved this file as hugotest.org, exported it with org's
+exporter `C-c C-e` and selected the Hugo output `H` and the All Subtrees To
+Files option `A`, you'd wind up with the following files in your directory:
+
+```nil
+.
+├── content
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── herpes.md
+└── hugotest.org
+```
+
+Most sites will be more than a blog, though, and will want multiple sections. In
+fact, many sites are made up of nothing but a slew of sections that users
+navigate between with some built-in menu. So a more functional minimal example
+would be the following:
+
+{{< highlight org "linenos=table, linenostart=1" >}}
+#+hugo_base_dir: .
+* My Homepage
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:END:
+This is the home of my blog!
+* My Blog
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: posts
+:END:
+** My Blog Homepage
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+Man, look at all my blog posts.
+** I have herpes
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: herpes
+:END:
+Someone gave me herpes! Oh no!
+{{< /highlight >}}
+
+Which yields the following:
+
+```nil
+.
+├── content
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── posts
+│ ├── herpes.md
+│ └── _index.md
+└── hugotest.org
+```
+
+As you might expect, this structure adheres to the Hugo [content management](https://gohugo.io/content-management/organization/)
+scheme. Additionally, the index files have been marked with menu metadata, which
+allows Hugo themes to automatically generate navigation menus from the markdown
+files. Hereafter, making new blog posts is as simple as adding new sub-headings
+under the "My Blog" heading, and exporting. As you can see, this is suitable for
+defining the hierarchical structure of any general website, not just
+blogs. Org-mode and Hugo just make creating new pages so simple and
+well-structured that providing content is all that's required for a new page,
+blog entry, or entirely new site section. If you can blog with ox-hugo, you can
+deftly deploy any manner of web content, or even develop entire websites as
+naturally as you make blog posts. Any tool that can turn blogging and web
+development into the same task is quite an achievement!
+
+Of course, themes to style this content are another can of worms entirely, but
+it is sufficient for now to mention that Hugo makes [using themes](https://gohugo.io/themes/installing-and-using-themes/) as easy as
+downloading one and specifying it in Hugo's config file.
+
+One question you may ask is why the blog's homepage is not defined in the **My
+Blog** heading. This is a fair question! Property blocks are inherited by
+sub-headings, and as of the current version of ox-hugo even `:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU:`
+properties are inherited. This might be intended by the content creator, but
+most likely you don't want every single post you make to be in the main menu. So
+it makes sense to define all your pages, including the index, as a sub-heading
+of the section definition (which specifies which sub-directory content will
+output to).
+
+To illustrate, let's assume you want to extend the previous site definition with
+a section about fishsticks.
+
+{{< highlight org "linenos=table, linenostart=24" >}}
+* Fishsticks
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: fishsticks
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+This section devoted to Orson Wells, R.I.P.
+** Van De Camps
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: van-de-camps
+:END:
+If this is fish, I'll be a monkey's uncle.
+** Gortons
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: gortons
+:END:
+I think these gave me the herpes.
+{{< /highlight >}}
+
+In this example, we've defined the main homepage of the section inside the
+tier-1 heading for Fishsticks. This is valid, and produces the expected file output:
+
+```nil
+.
+├── content
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ ├── gortons.md
+│ │ ├── _index.md
+│ │ └── van-de-camps.md
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── posts
+│ ├── herpes.md
+│ └── _index.md
+└── hugotest.org
+```
+
+But on inspection of the gortons.md file, we find the anomoly mentioned above:
+
+{{< highlight markdown "linenos=table, linenostart=1" >}}
+---
+title: "Gortons"
+author: ["Ken Grimes"]
+draft: false
+menu:
+ main:
+ weight: 2002
+ identifier: "gortons"
+---
+
+I think these gave me the herpes.
+{{< /highlight >}}
+
+Uh oh! Not only did these fishsticks give us herpes, they are now part of the
+main menu. Tisk tisk. So if you use this workflow, be sure to put your index
+pages in subheadings so that the tier-1 heading can be used for "global"
+definitions that affect all of the pages.
+
+Another question might be why the index pages are named **\_index**. You can use
+**index** instead of **\_index**, the only difference is whether Hugo treats the
+index page as a leaf, or a branch, when [bundling resources](https://gohugo.io/content-management/page-bundles/) for Hugo to query
+during site generation. This is a relatively new addition to Hugo as of version
+0.39, and isn't fully functional or integrated well into ox-hugo, so I simply
+don't use it at the moment. I define all indexes as **\_index** to make them
+branches because, in future versions, packaging files within bundles like this
+will provide a more stable way for Hugo themes to reference page- and
+section-specific files that accompany the content. Currently, I store all such
+files in the static folder, which is copied verbatim to the output directory by
+Hugo when the site is built.
+
+
+# Hugo Setup {#hugo-setup}
+
+At this point, setting up Hugo and publishing is simple. [Installing](https://gohugo.io/getting-started/installing/) Hugo is
+pretty straightforward on any Unix-like system with a package manager; it is
+available on most distributions at this point. Windows installation is a bigger
+pain in the ass, but you should be used to that if you're still in the
+stone-age.
+
+Using `hugo new site .` on the command-line will create a new hugo site in the
+current directory, but `hugo` expects to be creating a new directory with this
+command and will complain if it already exists. It also provides the `--force`
+option to allow creating a new site in an extant directory, but this too will
+fail if the **content** subdirectory already exists (which ox-hugo will create
+when you export).
+
+So you have three choices:
+
+1. run `hugo new site /path/to/some-new-dir` and move your org file to it
+2. simply `rm -Rf content/` to remove the content directory ox-hugo created,
+ then run `hugo new site --force .`
+3. don't even bother with the `hugo new site` command, and make a **config.toml**
+ file manually.
+
+It's convenient to do this through the `hugo` command because it will create
+Hugo-specific subdirectories like archetypes, layouts, themes, etcetera, in
+addition to populating a basic **config.toml** file. The subdirectories it creates
+aren't necessary, but help illustrate Hugo's structure. In any case, you'll want
+to wind up with a directory structure something like this (created with option 2
+above, extending from previous examples):
+
+```nil
+.
+├── archetypes
+│ └── default.md
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+├── data
+├── hugotest.org
+├── layouts
+├── static
+└── themes
+```
+
+Exporting with ox-hugo using `C-c C-e H A` again will, as expected, fill the
+content directory with our content.
+
+```nil
+.
+├── archetypes
+│ └── default.md
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ ├── gortons.md
+│ │ ├── _index.md
+│ │ └── van-de-camps.md
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── posts
+│ ├── herpes.md
+│ └── _index.md
+├── data
+├── hugotest.org
+├── layouts
+├── static
+└── themes
+```
+
+Now, running the command `hugo` with no subcommands will invoke the Hugo
+generator on the current directory, and output finalized content in the
+**public/** directory.
+
+```nil
+.
+├── archetypes
+│ └── default.md
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ ├── gortons.md
+│ │ ├── _index.md
+│ │ └── van-de-camps.md
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ └── posts
+│ ├── herpes.md
+│ └── _index.md
+├── data
+├── hugotest.org
+├── layouts
+├── public
+│ ├── categories
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── index.xml
+│ ├── posts
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── sitemap.xml
+│ └── tags
+│ └── index.xml
+├── static
+└── themes
+```
+
+Hugo, by default, generates xml files that are suitable for RSS feeds. With a
+theme installed, Hugo will produce more suitable web content (usually
+HTML). You'll notice from this default output however that Hugo creates a
+sitemap, and two directories for [taxonomies](https://gohugo.io/content-management/taxonomies/) that let you "tag" and "categorize"
+content. The taxonomy index pages allow users to browse content by category or
+tag. These taxonomies correspond to org-mode tags, and ox-hugo will
+automatically associated tagged headings with the tags taxonomy, or the
+categories taxonomy if prefixed with an @ symbol. You are free to define your
+own taxonomies, and even disable the default "tags" and "categories" taxonomies,
+but since org-mode tags directly translate to the default Hugo taxonomies, it
+makes sense to just use the default taxonomies for now.
+
+
+# Example Hugo Site {#example-hugo-site}
+
+As an example, let's add some tags and categories to our **hugotest.org** file:
+
+{{< highlight org "linenos=table, linenostart=1" >}}
+#+hugo_base_dir: .
+* My Homepage
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:END:
+This is the home of my blog!
+* My Blog
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: posts
+:END:
+** My Blog Homepage
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+Man, look at all my blog posts.
+** I have herpes :@inanity:herpes:fear:
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: herpes
+:END:
+Someone gave me herpes! Oh no!
+* Fishsticks
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_HUGO_MENU: :menu "main"
+:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: fishsticks
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: _index
+:END:
+This section devoted to Orson Wells, R.I.P.
+** Van De Camps :@inanity:
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: van-de-camps
+:END:
+If this is fish, I'll be a monkey's uncle.
+** Gortons :@inanity:herpes:
+:PROPERTIES:
+:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: gortons
+:END:
+I think these gave me the herpes.
+{{< /highlight >}}
+
+Exporting **hugotest.org** with `C-c C-e H A` and generate with `hugo` will yield
+the same file structure as before, but this time we'll see that the categories
+and tags directories have sections for our newly added tags.
+
+```nil
+.
+├── archetypes
+│ └── default.md
+├── config.toml
+├── content
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ ├── gortons.md
+│ │ ├── _index.md
+│ │ └── van-de-camps.md
+│ └── posts
+│ └── herpes.md
+├── data
+├── hugotest.org
+├── layouts
+├── public
+│ ├── categories
+│ │ ├── inanity
+│ │ │ └── index.xml
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── fishsticks
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── index.xml
+│ ├── posts
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── sitemap.xml
+│ └── tags
+│ ├── fear
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ ├── herpes
+│ │ └── index.xml
+│ └── index.xml
+├── static
+└── themes
+```
+
+The index pages of taxonomies provide a list of all available taxonomies of that
+type, with links to lists that show content associated with that taxonomy. For
+instance, public/tags/index.xml looks like this:
+
+{{< highlight xml "linenos=table, linenostart=1" >}}

+
+This allows themes to easily build navigation pages for browsing or querying
+taxonomies. Files like these are often useful to output as JSON (done by the
+theme) to allow Javascript-driven dynamic search features, but a simpler scheme
+can output HTML pages to browse taxonomies just as you would posts in a section
+(i.e. org-mode heading).
+
+
+## Theming {#theming}
+
+The last thing to do here is to download or create a theme for Hugo. As
+mentioned before, installing a theme is very simple. This blog uses a custom
+theme named Speedy that I have been developing to help myself learn Hugo's
+internals, but for this example I'll be using Kaushal Modi's [bare-min theme](https://github.com/kaushalmodi/hugo-bare-min-theme). The
+bare-min theme is the best starting place out there for making new themes, and
+outputs basic HTML pages without any need to mess with CSS or JS. It also
+provides easy debugging facilities and search features.
+
+We'll just install it and generate the site again. You can download the theme
+from its github page and extract it to the themes folder, or much more easily
+use git to clone it to your themes directory.
+`git clone https://github.com/kaushalmodi/hugo-bare-min-theme.git themes/bare-min`
+Then open up your **config.toml** file, and add the theme.
+
+{{< highlight toml "linenos=table, linenostart=1" >}}
+baseURL = "http://example.org/"
+languageCode = "en-us"
+title = "My New Hugo Site"
+# Adding a theme:
+theme = "bare-min"
+{{< /highlight >}}
+
+Be sure that the theme's name matches the theme directory's name in the themes/
+directory of your project base directory. (e.g. themes/bare-min here).
+
+That's it for installing the theme. Just run `hugo` again, and behold your output:
+
+```nil
+.
+└── public
+ ├── categories
+ │ ├── inanity
+ │ │ ├── index.html
+ │ │ └── index.xml
+ │ ├── index.html
+ │ └── index.xml
+ ├── css
+ │ └── github_chroma.css
+ ├── fishsticks
+ │ ├── gortons
+ │ │ └── index.html
+ │ ├── index.html
+ │ ├── index.xml
+ │ └── van-de-camps
+ │ └── index.html
+ ├── index.html
+ ├── index.xml
+ ├── js
+ │ └── search.js
+ ├── page
+ │ └── 1
+ │ └── index.html
+ ├── posts
+ │ ├── herpes
+ │ │ └── index.html
+ │ ├── index.html
+ │ └── index.xml
+ ├── sitemap.xml
+ └── tags
+ ├── fear
+ │ ├── index.html
+ │ └── index.xml
+ ├── herpes
+ │ ├── index.html
+ │ └── index.xml
+ ├── index.html
+ └── index.xml
+```
+
+The bare-min theme outputs HTML, provides CSS for doing chroma-based syntax
+highlighting (in case you include code blocks), and inline styles for basic
+page formatting. Generated pages also have a lot of useful debugging information.
+
+You can now serve the **public/** directory over an HTTP server. Hugo is packaged
+with an internal [HTTP server](https://gohugo.io/commands/hugo_server/) to help with testing, which is quite convenient
+because it can automatically refresh whenever content in its content directory
+is updated (so when you export from ox-hugo, you don't have to run `hugo`
+again). To use it, simply run `hugo server` and point your browser at
+<http://localhost:1313> (1313 is the default `--port` argument for `hugo server`).
+
+Eventually you'll want to move on to other themes, or develop your own, but at
+this point you've got a fully functional blog publishing workflow from start to
+finish.
+
+
+# Attaching Files, Capturing Information & Automation {#attaching-files-capturing-information-and-automation}
+
+Once you have a basic site structured in your org file, you're ready to start
+throwing information in it. It is of course sufficient to open the org file and
+edit it, but most org-mode users prefer to automate _everything_, and being able
+to use org's capture feature to instantly populate new blog posts is extremely
+convenient.
+
+The [ox-hugo documentation](https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/) provides succinct explanations on how to do this,
+including elisp snippets for [capture setup](https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/doc/org-capture-setup/), [image linking](https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/doc/images-in-content/), and [automating
+exports](https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/doc/auto-export-on-saving/) when you save your org file (so no more need to `C-c C-e H A` every
+time, just save the file as usual with `C-x C-s`).

-ox-hugo is an [Emacs](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emacs) package providing a Hugo backend for the [org-mode](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/org-mode)
-exporter. Today I integrated its expectations about file structure into the
-Speedy theme for this blog, allowing me to keep all blog contents in a single
-org-mode file which exports content to [markdown](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/markdown) format for Hugo's excellent
-[blackfriday markdown parser](https://github.com/russross/blackfriday) (a markdown format with added features useful for
-blogs). Hugo does support limited parsing of org files internally, but the org
-file format is only a piece of what org-mode is all about. A full org
-integration is beyond the scope of most external tools, so org-mode is generally
-best used as an exporter. As an Emacs user, this allows me to instantly capture
-interesting information I come across and publish it within seconds.
-
-Now I have no excuse!

-<h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>
-
-<h3 id="philosophy">Philosophy</h3>
-
-Markdown is intended to be as easy-to-read and easy-to-write as is feasible.
-
-Readability, however, is emphasized above all else. A Markdown-formatted
-document should be publishable as-is, as plain text, without looking
-like it's been marked up with tags or formatting instructions. While
-Markdown's syntax has been influenced by several existing text-to-HTML
-filters -- including [Setext] [1], [atx] [2], [Textile] [3], [reStructuredText] [4],
-[Grutatext] [5], and [EtText] [6] -- the single biggest source of
-inspiration for Markdown's syntax is the format of plain text email.

- [6]: http://ettext.taint.org/doc/
-
-To this end, Markdown's syntax is comprised entirely of punctuation
-characters, which punctuation characters have been carefully chosen so
-as to look like what they mean. E.g., asterisks around a word actually
-look like \*emphasis\*. Markdown lists look like, well, lists. Even
-blockquotes look like quoted passages of text, assuming you've ever
-used email.
-
-
-
-<h3 id="html">Inline HTML</h3>
-
-Markdown's syntax is intended for one purpose: to be used as a
-format for *writing* for the web.
-
-Markdown is not a replacement for HTML, or even close to it. Its
-syntax is very small, corresponding only to a very small subset of
-HTML tags. The idea is *not* to create a syntax that makes it easier
-to insert HTML tags. In my opinion, HTML tags are already easy to
-insert. The idea for Markdown is to make it easy to read, write, and
-edit prose. HTML is a *publishing* format; Markdown is a *writing*
-format. Thus, Markdown's formatting syntax only addresses issues that
-can be conveyed in plain text.
-
-For any markup that is not covered by Markdown's syntax, you simply
-use HTML itself. There's no need to preface it or delimit it to
-indicate that you're switching from Markdown to HTML; you just use
-the tags.
-
-The only restrictions are that block-level HTML elements -- e.g. `<div>`,
-`<table>`, `<pre>`, `<p>`, etc. -- must be separated from surrounding
-content by blank lines, and the start and end tags of the block should
-not be indented with tabs or spaces. Markdown is smart enough not
-to add extra (unwanted) `<p>` tags around HTML block-level tags.
-
-For example, to add an HTML table to a Markdown article:
-
- This is a regular paragraph.
-
- <table>
- <tr>
- <td>Foo</td>
- </tr>
- </table>
-
- This is another regular paragraph.
-
-Note that Markdown formatting syntax is not processed within block-level
-HTML tags. E.g., you can't use Markdown-style `*emphasis*` inside an
-HTML block.
-
-Span-level HTML tags -- e.g. `<span>`, `<cite>`, or `<del>` -- can be
-used anywhere in a Markdown paragraph, list item, or header. If you
-want, you can even use HTML tags instead of Markdown formatting; e.g. if
-you'd prefer to use HTML `<a>` or `<img>` tags instead of Markdown's
-link or image syntax, go right ahead.
-
-Unlike block-level HTML tags, Markdown syntax *is* processed within
-span-level tags.
-
-
-<h3 id="autoescape">Automatic Escaping for Special Characters</h3>
-
-In HTML, there are two characters that demand special treatment: `<`
-and `&`. Left angle brackets are used to start tags; ampersands are
-used to denote HTML entities. If you want to use them as literal
-characters, you must escape them as entities, e.g. `<`, and
-`&`.
-
-Ampersands in particular are bedeviling for web writers. If you want to
-write about 'AT&T', you need to write '`AT&T`'. You even need to
-escape ampersands within URLs. Thus, if you want to link to:
-
- http://images.google.com/images?num=30&q=larry+bird
-
-you need to encode the URL as:
-
- http://images.google.com/images?num=30&q=larry+bird
-
-in your anchor tag `href` attribute. Needless to say, this is easy to
-forget, and is probably the single most common source of HTML validation
-errors in otherwise well-marked-up web sites.
-
-Markdown allows you to use these characters naturally, taking care of
-all the necessary escaping for you. If you use an ampersand as part of
-an HTML entity, it remains unchanged; otherwise it will be translated
-into `&`.
-
-So, if you want to include a copyright symbol in your article, you can write:
-
- ©
-
-and Markdown will leave it alone. But if you write:
-
- AT&T
-
-Markdown will translate it to:
-
- AT&T
-
-Similarly, because Markdown supports [inline HTML](#html), if you use
-angle brackets as delimiters for HTML tags, Markdown will treat them as
-such. But if you write:
-
- 4 < 5
-
-Markdown will translate it to:
-
- 4 < 5
-
-However, inside Markdown code spans and blocks, angle brackets and
-ampersands are *always* encoded automatically. This makes it easy to use
-Markdown to write about HTML code. (As opposed to raw HTML, which is a
-terrible format for writing about HTML syntax, because every single `<`
-and `&` in your example code needs to be escaped.)
-
-

-
-<h2 id="block">Block Elements</h2>
-
-
-<h3 id="p">Paragraphs and Line Breaks</h3>
-
-A paragraph is simply one or more consecutive lines of text, separated
-by one or more blank lines. (A blank line is any line that looks like a
-blank line -- a line containing nothing but spaces or tabs is considered
-blank.) Normal paragraphs should not be intended with spaces or tabs.
-
-The implication of the "one or more consecutive lines of text" rule is
-that Markdown supports "hard-wrapped" text paragraphs. This differs
-significantly from most other text-to-HTML formatters (including Movable
-Type's "Convert Line Breaks" option) which translate every line break
-character in a paragraph into a `<br />` tag.
-
-When you *do* want to insert a `<br />` break tag using Markdown, you
-end a line with two or more spaces, then type return.
-
-Yes, this takes a tad more effort to create a `<br />`, but a simplistic
-"every line break is a `<br />`" rule wouldn't work for Markdown.
-Markdown's email-style [blockquoting][bq] and multi-paragraph [list items][l]
-work best -- and look better -- when you format them with hard breaks.
-
- [bq]: #blockquote
- [l]: #list
-
-
-
-<h3 id="header">Headers</h3>
-
-Markdown supports two styles of headers, [Setext] [1] and [atx] [2].
-
-Setext-style headers are "underlined" using equal signs (for first-level
-headers) and dashes (for second-level headers). For example:
-
- This is an H1
- =============
-
- This is an H2
- -------------
-
-Any number of underlining `=`'s or `-`'s will work.
-
-Atx-style headers use 1-6 hash characters at the start of the line,
-corresponding to header levels 1-6. For example:
-
- # This is an H1
-
- ## This is an H2
-
- ###### This is an H6
-
-Optionally, you may "close" atx-style headers. This is purely
-cosmetic -- you can use this if you think it looks better. The
-closing hashes don't even need to match the number of hashes
-used to open the header. (The number of opening hashes
-determines the header level.) :
-
- # This is an H1 #
-
- ## This is an H2 ##
-
- ### This is an H3 ######
-
-
-<h3 id="blockquote">Blockquotes</h3>
-
-Markdown uses email-style `>` characters for blockquoting. If you're
-familiar with quoting passages of text in an email message, then you
-know how to create a blockquote in Markdown. It looks best if you hard
-wrap the text and put a `>` before every line:
-
- > This is a blockquote with two paragraphs. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
- > consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam hendrerit mi posuere lectus.
- > Vestibulum enim wisi, viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet vitae, risus.
- >
- > Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit. Suspendisse
- > id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-
-Markdown allows you to be lazy and only put the `>` before the first
-line of a hard-wrapped paragraph:
-
- > This is a blockquote with two paragraphs. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
- consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam hendrerit mi posuere lectus.
- Vestibulum enim wisi, viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet vitae, risus.
-
- > Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit. Suspendisse
- id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-
-Blockquotes can be nested (i.e. a blockquote-in-a-blockquote) by
-adding additional levels of `>`:
-
- > This is the first level of quoting.
- >
- > > This is nested blockquote.
- >
- > Back to the first level.
-
-Blockquotes can contain other Markdown elements, including headers, lists,
-and code blocks:
-
- > ## This is a header.
- >
- > 1. This is the first list item.
- > 2. This is the second list item.
- >
- > Here's some example code:
- >
- > return shell_exec("echo $input | $markdown_script");
-
-Any decent text editor should make email-style quoting easy. For
-example, with BBEdit, you can make a selection and choose Increase
-Quote Level from the Text menu.
-
-
-<h3 id="list">Lists</h3>
-
-Markdown supports ordered (numbered) and unordered (bulleted) lists.
-
-Unordered lists use asterisks, pluses, and hyphens -- interchangably
--- as list markers:
-
- * Red
- * Green
- * Blue
-
-is equivalent to:
-
- + Red
- + Green
- + Blue
-
-and:
-
- - Red
- - Green
- - Blue
-
-Ordered lists use numbers followed by periods:
-
- 1. Bird
- 2. McHale
- 3. Parish
-
-It's important to note that the actual numbers you use to mark the
-list have no effect on the HTML output Markdown produces. The HTML
-Markdown produces from the above list is:
-
- <ol>
- <li>Bird</li>
- <li>McHale</li>
- <li>Parish</li>
- </ol>
-
-If you instead wrote the list in Markdown like this:
-
- 1. Bird
- 1. McHale
- 1. Parish
-
-or even:
-
- 3. Bird
- 1. McHale
- 8. Parish
-
-you'd get the exact same HTML output. The point is, if you want to,
-you can use ordinal numbers in your ordered Markdown lists, so that
-the numbers in your source match the numbers in your published HTML.
-But if you want to be lazy, you don't have to.
-
-If you do use lazy list numbering, however, you should still start the
-list with the number 1. At some point in the future, Markdown may support
-starting ordered lists at an arbitrary number.
-
-List markers typically start at the left margin, but may be indented by
-up to three spaces. List markers must be followed by one or more spaces
-or a tab.
-
-To make lists look nice, you can wrap items with hanging indents:
-
- * Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
- Aliquam hendrerit mi posuere lectus. Vestibulum enim wisi,
- viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet vitae, risus.
- * Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit.
- Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-
-But if you want to be lazy, you don't have to:
-
- * Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
- Aliquam hendrerit mi posuere lectus. Vestibulum enim wisi,
- viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet vitae, risus.
- * Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum sit amet velit.
- Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-
-If list items are separated by blank lines, Markdown will wrap the
-items in `<p>` tags in the HTML output. For example, this input:
-
- * Bird
- * Magic
-
-will turn into:
-
- <ul>
- <li>Bird</li>
- <li>Magic</li>
- </ul>
-
-But this:
-
- * Bird
-
- * Magic
-
-will turn into:
-
- <ul>
- <li><p>Bird</p></li>
- <li><p>Magic</p></li>
- </ul>
-
-List items may consist of multiple paragraphs. Each subsequent
-paragraph in a list item must be intended by either 4 spaces
-or one tab:
-
- 1. This is a list item with two paragraphs. Lorem ipsum dolor
- sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam hendrerit
- mi posuere lectus.
-
- Vestibulum enim wisi, viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet
- vitae, risus. Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum
- sit amet velit.
-
- 2. Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
-
-It looks nice if you indent every line of the subsequent
-paragraphs, but here again, Markdown will allow you to be
-lazy:
-
- * This is a list item with two paragraphs.
-
- This is the second paragraph in the list item. You're
- only required to indent the first line. Lorem ipsum dolor
- sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
-
- * Another item in the same list.
-
-To put a blockquote within a list item, the blockquote's `>`
-delimiters need to be indented:
-
- * A list item with a blockquote:
-
- > This is a blockquote
- > inside a list item.
-
-To put a code block within a list item, the code block needs
-to be indented *twice* -- 8 spaces or two tabs:
-
- * A list item with a code block:
-
- <code goes here>
-
-
-It's worth noting that it's possible to trigger an ordered list by
-accident, by writing something like this:
-
- 1986. What a great season.
-
-In other words, a *number-period-space* sequence at the beginning of a
-line. To avoid this, you can backslash-escape the period:
-
- 1986\. What a great season.
-
-
-
-<h3 id="precode">Code Blocks</h3>
-
-Pre-formatted code blocks are used for writing about programming or
-markup source code. Rather than forming normal paragraphs, the lines
-of a code block are interpreted literally. Markdown wraps a code block
-in both `<pre>` and `<code>` tags.
-
-To produce a code block in Markdown, simply indent every line of the
-block by at least 4 spaces or 1 tab. For example, given this input:
-
- This is a normal paragraph:
-
- This is a code block.
-
-Markdown will generate:
-
- <p>This is a normal paragraph:</p>
-
- <pre><code>This is a code block.
- </code></pre>
-
-One level of indentation -- 4 spaces or 1 tab -- is removed from each
-line of the code block. For example, this:
-
- Here is an example of AppleScript:
-
- tell application "Foo"
- beep
- end tell
-
-will turn into:
-
- <p>Here is an example of AppleScript:</p>
-
- <pre><code>tell application "Foo"
- beep
- end tell
- </code></pre>
-
-A code block continues until it reaches a line that is not indented
-(or the end of the article).
-
-Within a code block, ampersands (`&`) and angle brackets (`<` and `>`)
-are automatically converted into HTML entities. This makes it very
-easy to include example HTML source code using Markdown -- just paste
-it and indent it, and Markdown will handle the hassle of encoding the
-ampersands and angle brackets. For example, this:
-
- <div class="footer">
- © 2004 Foo Corporation
- </div>
-
-will turn into:
-
- <pre><code><div class="footer">
- &copy; 2004 Foo Corporation
- </div>
- </code></pre>
-
-Regular Markdown syntax is not processed within code blocks. E.g.,
-asterisks are just literal asterisks within a code block. This means
-it's also easy to use Markdown to write about Markdown's own syntax.
-
-
-
-<h3 id="hr">Horizontal Rules</h3>
-
-You can produce a horizontal rule tag (`<hr />`) by placing three or
-more hyphens, asterisks, or underscores on a line by themselves. If you
-wish, you may use spaces between the hyphens or asterisks. Each of the
-following lines will produce a horizontal rule:
-
- * * *
-
- ***
-
- *****
-

-<h2 id="span">Span Elements</h2>
-
-<h3 id="link">Links</h3>
-
-Markdown supports two style of links: *inline* and *reference*.
-
-In both styles, the link text is delimited by [square brackets].
-
-To create an inline link, use a set of regular parentheses immediately
-after the link text's closing square bracket. Inside the parentheses,
-put the URL where you want the link to point, along with an *optional*
-title for the link, surrounded in quotes. For example:
-
- This is [an example](http://example.com/ "Title") inline link.
-
- [This link](http://example.net/) has no title attribute.
-
-Will produce:
-
- <p>This is <a href="http://example.com/" title="Title">
- an example</a> inline link.</p>
-
- <p><a href="http://example.net/">This link</a> has no
- title attribute.</p>
-
-If you're referring to a local resource on the same server, you can
-use relative paths:
-
- See my [About](/about/) page for details.
-
-Reference-style links use a second set of square brackets, inside
-which you place a label of your choosing to identify the link:
-
- This is [an example][id] reference-style link.
-
-You can optionally use a space to separate the sets of brackets:
-
- This is [an example] [id] reference-style link.
-
-Then, anywhere in the document, you define your link label like this,
-on a line by itself:
-
- [id]: http://example.com/ "Optional Title Here"
-
-That is:
-
- * Square brackets containing the link identifier (optionally
- indented from the left margin using up to three spaces);
- * followed by a colon;
- * followed by one or more spaces (or tabs);
- * followed by the URL for the link;
- * optionally followed by a title attribute for the link, enclosed
- in double or single quotes.
-
-The link URL may, optionally, be surrounded by angle brackets:
-
- [id]: <http://example.com/> "Optional Title Here"
-
-You can put the title attribute on the next line and use extra spaces
-or tabs for padding, which tends to look better with longer URLs:
-
- [id]: http://example.com/longish/path/to/resource/here
- "Optional Title Here"
-
-Link definitions are only used for creating links during Markdown
-processing, and are stripped from your document in the HTML output.
-
-Link definition names may constist of letters, numbers, spaces, and punctuation -- but they are *not* case sensitive. E.g. these two links:
-
- [link text][a]
- [link text][A]
-
-are equivalent.
-
-The *implicit link name* shortcut allows you to omit the name of the
-link, in which case the link text itself is used as the name.
-Just use an empty set of square brackets -- e.g., to link the word
-"Google" to the google.com web site, you could simply write:
-
- [Google][]
-
-And then define the link:
-
- [Google]: http://google.com/
-
-Because link names may contain spaces, this shortcut even works for
-multiple words in the link text:
-
- Visit [Daring Fireball][] for more information.
-
-And then define the link:
-
- [Daring Fireball]: http://daringfireball.net/
-
-Link definitions can be placed anywhere in your Markdown document. I
-tend to put them immediately after each paragraph in which they're
-used, but if you want, you can put them all at the end of your
-document, sort of like footnotes.
-
-Here's an example of reference links in action:
-
- I get 10 times more traffic from [Google] [1] than from
- [Yahoo] [2] or [MSN] [3].
-
- [1]: http://google.com/ "Google"
- [2]: http://search.yahoo.com/ "Yahoo Search"
- [3]: http://search.msn.com/ "MSN Search"
-
-Using the implicit link name shortcut, you could instead write:
-
- I get 10 times more traffic from [Google][] than from
- [Yahoo][] or [MSN][].
-
- [google]: http://google.com/ "Google"
- [yahoo]: http://search.yahoo.com/ "Yahoo Search"
- [msn]: http://search.msn.com/ "MSN Search"
-
-Both of the above examples will produce the following HTML output:
-
- <p>I get 10 times more traffic from <a href="http://google.com/"
- title="Google">Google</a> than from
- <a href="http://search.yahoo.com/" title="Yahoo Search">Yahoo</a>
- or <a href="http://search.msn.com/" title="MSN Search">MSN</a>.</p>
-
-For comparison, here is the same paragraph written using
-Markdown's inline link style:
-
- I get 10 times more traffic from [Google](http://google.com/ "Google")
- than from [Yahoo](http://search.yahoo.com/ "Yahoo Search") or
- [MSN](http://search.msn.com/ "MSN Search").
-
-The point of reference-style links is not that they're easier to
-write. The point is that with reference-style links, your document
-source is vastly more readable. Compare the above examples: using
-reference-style links, the paragraph itself is only 81 characters
-long; with inline-style links, it's 176 characters; and as raw HTML,
-it's 234 characters. In the raw HTML, there's more markup than there
-is text.
-
-With Markdown's reference-style links, a source document much more
-closely resembles the final output, as rendered in a browser. By
-allowing you to move the markup-related metadata out of the paragraph,
-you can add links without interrupting the narrative flow of your
-prose.
-
-
-<h3 id="em">Emphasis</h3>
-
-Markdown treats asterisks (`*`) and underscores (`_`) as indicators of
-emphasis. Text wrapped with one `*` or `_` will be wrapped with an
-HTML `<em>` tag; double `*`'s or `_`'s will be wrapped with an HTML
-`<strong>` tag. E.g., this input:
-
- *single asterisks*
-
- _single underscores_
-
- **double asterisks**
-
- __double underscores__
-
-will produce:
-
- <em>single asterisks</em>
-
- <em>single underscores</em>
-
- <strong>double asterisks</strong>
-
- <strong>double underscores</strong>
-
-You can use whichever style you prefer; the lone restriction is that
-the same character must be used to open and close an emphasis span.
-
-Emphasis can be used in the middle of a word:
-
- un*fucking*believable
-
-But if you surround an `*` or `_` with spaces, it'll be treated as a
-literal asterisk or underscore.
-
-To produce a literal asterisk or underscore at a position where it
-would otherwise be used as an emphasis delimiter, you can backslash
-escape it:
-
- \*this text is surrounded by literal asterisks\*
-
-
-
-<h3 id="code">Code</h3>
-
-To indicate a span of code, wrap it with backtick quotes (`` ` ``).
-Unlike a pre-formatted code block, a code span indicates code within a
-normal paragraph. For example:
-
- Use the `printf()` function.
-
-will produce:
-
- <p>Use the <code>printf()</code> function.</p>
-
-To include a literal backtick character within a code span, you can use
-multiple backticks as the opening and closing delimiters:
-
- ``There is a literal backtick (`) here.``
-
-which will produce this:
-
- <p><code>There is a literal backtick (`) here.</code></p>
-
-The backtick delimiters surrounding a code span may include spaces --
-one after the opening, one before the closing. This allows you to place
-literal backtick characters at the beginning or end of a code span:
-
- A single backtick in a code span: `` ` ``
-
- A backtick-delimited string in a code span: `` `foo` ``
-
-will produce:
-
- <p>A single backtick in a code span: <code>`</code></p>
-
- <p>A backtick-delimited string in a code span: <code>`foo`</code></p>
-
-With a code span, ampersands and angle brackets are encoded as HTML
-entities automatically, which makes it easy to include example HTML
-tags. Markdown will turn this:
-
- Please don't use any `<blink>` tags.
-
-into:
-
- <p>Please don't use any <code><blink></code> tags.</p>
-
-You can write this:
-
- `—` is the decimal-encoded equivalent of `—`.
-
-to produce:
-
- <p><code>&#8212;</code> is the decimal-encoded
- equivalent of <code>&mdash;</code>.</p>
-
-
-
-<h3 id="img">Images</h3>
-
-Admittedly, it's fairly difficult to devise a "natural" syntax for
-placing images into a plain text document format.
-
-Markdown uses an image syntax that is intended to resemble the syntax
-for links, allowing for two styles: *inline* and *reference*.
-
-Inline image syntax looks like this:
-
- 
-
- 
-
-That is:
-
- * An exclamation mark: `!`;
- * followed by a set of square brackets, containing the `alt`
- attribute text for the image;
- * followed by a set of parentheses, containing the URL or path to
- the image, and an optional `title` attribute enclosed in double
- or single quotes.
-
-Reference-style image syntax looks like this:
-
- ![Alt text][id]
-
-Where "id" is the name of a defined image reference. Image references
-are defined using syntax identical to link references:
-
- [id]: url/to/image "Optional title attribute"
-
-As of this writing, Markdown has no syntax for specifying the
-dimensions of an image; if this is important to you, you can simply
-use regular HTML `<img>` tags.

-<h3 id="autolink">Automatic Links</h3>
-
-Markdown supports a shortcut style for creating "automatic" links for URLs and email addresses: simply surround the URL or email address with angle brackets. What this means is that if you want to show the actual text of a URL or email address, and also have it be a clickable link, you can do this:
-
- <http://example.com/>
-
-Markdown will turn this into:
-
- <a href="http://example.com/">http://example.com/</a>
-
-Automatic links for email addresses work similarly, except that
-Markdown will also perform a bit of randomized decimal and hex
-entity-encoding to help obscure your address from address-harvesting
-spambots. For example, Markdown will turn this:
-
- <address@example.com>
-
-into something like this:
-
- <a href="mailto:addre
- ss@example.co
- m">address@exa
- mple.com</a>
-
-which will render in a browser as a clickable link to "address@example.com".
-
-(This sort of entity-encoding trick will indeed fool many, if not
-most, address-harvesting bots, but it definitely won't fool all of
-them. It's better than nothing, but an address published in this way
-will probably eventually start receiving spam.)

-<h3 id="backslash">Backslash Escapes</h3>
-
-Markdown allows you to use backslash escapes to generate literal
-characters which would otherwise have special meaning in Markdown's
-formatting syntax. For example, if you wanted to surround a word with
-literal asterisks (instead of an HTML `<em>` tag), you can backslashes
-before the asterisks, like this:
-
- \*literal asterisks\*
-
-Markdown provides backslash escapes for the following characters:
-
- \ backslash
- ` backtick
- * asterisk
- _ underscore
- {} curly braces
- [] square brackets
- () parentheses
- # hash mark
- + plus sign
- - minus sign (hyphen)
- . dot
- ! exclamation mark
+ox-hugo is an [Emacs](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emacs) package for [org-mode](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/org-mode) that produces input for the static
+content generator [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/), which I use for this website. Today I integrated its
+expectations about file structure into the Speedy theme for this blog, allowing
+me to keep all blog contents in a single org-mode file and export [markdown](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/markdown)
+content for Hugo's excellent [blackfriday markdown parser](https://github.com/russross/blackfriday) (a markdown format with
+many added features). Hugo does support limited parsing of org files internally,
+but org-mode features like inline spreadsheets and system communication are
+beyond the scope of most external tools, so org-mode is best used as an
+exporter. As an Emacs user, this allows me to instantly capture interesting
+information I come across and publish it within seconds. Now I have no excuses!
