Hm... I've been using org-mode to create my articles
 http://steinar.bang.priv.no/

But maybe this is something to check out...?

You have text and images, but what about stuff like code examples?  Have
you given that any thoughts?

org-mode provides syntax colouring based on the mode used for the code

Nope.  >"?

Does org mode allow uploading embedded pictures when uploading to
WordPress?  That was my main impetus for implementing this.  Uploading
images is boooring.

WordPress does some filtering of the HTML with the "post by email"
feature...  Let's see whether formatting survives...

Nope.  WordPress strips all <spans> and <pre> things, apparently.  So
whatever interface Org is using is superior if you're using complex
formatting.

Hm...  but it apparently supports Markdown via "post by email".  I could
give that a shot.

Does Emacs have a Markdown mode?

I haven't looked or tried, so I don't know.

Ok.  I'll stay with what I have, then.

Wordpress has native "shortcode" support for code, which seems to
survive the email posting:

[code language="css"]
#button {<br>
    font-weight: bold;<br>
    border: 2px solid #fff;<br>
}
[/code]

There is one on EmacsWiki: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MarkdownMode

I also found that org is supposed to support export to markdown:
 http://orgmode.org/manual/Markdown-export.html

But when I tried this on my current org, which is the org distributed
with emacs 24.3, `C-c C-e m' tried exporting to MindMap (and the extra
"m" ended up in the org buffer).

I was wondering if this is what the org export had done, but the org
export uses <pre> containing <span> elements to do the syntax
colouring (I looked at the Text pane on an Edit of one of the articles
in the WordPress Dashboard).

AFAIK the org export uses the ordinary HTML export and then either
pushes it as-is and let WordPress strip it down to the supported tag
set, or strips the HTML down to what WordPress expects.

Right.  The interface Org uses to push stuff to WordPress must be more
permissive (allows more tags and stuff) than the email interface.

The org-mode that bundles with Emacs 24.3 is very old (7.9
something). There has been a major overhall regarding the exporters
which has been shipped with Org-Mode 8. I guess that does also include
the Markdown Exporter.
