Hi Samuel,
I am quite convinced that only indentation should be used to determine
list structure. I believe the solution to the problem would be a yank
function
that would adapt the indentation...

Interesting.
Just as a brainstorm, I wonder if there is a block that could achieve
the same effect? Or, perhaps, if indentation that looks like the
following could be handled automatically?
- item
- subitem
this is stuff pasted flush left. we know that it is a body because
there is no blank line between subitem and "this is stuff".
this is another paragraph of the body we know that it is still part
of the body because it is followed by a subitem and there is no blank
line after it. this is a little kludgey and maybe there is a better
solution.
- this is another subitem that terminates the plain list item
above.
Perhaps this was already considered?

Hi Thomas,
Lists depend entirely on indentation.
Sidenote:
For long mails and similar texts I use a drawer:
(setq org-drawers (quote ("PROPERTIES" "CLOCK" "PHONE" "EMAIL"
"REMAIL" "HIDDEN" "LOGBOOK")))
:EMAIL: and :REMAIL: are the ones I use for mails from and to
customers.

Aloha all,
First, org-mode is really useful. The more I use it, the more
useful it gets
and the more I appreciate its flexibility. I've been using it
for several
months but still feel like a newbie. Perhaps the problem I'm
having stems from
this.
I use the checkbox feature a lot, with good effect, like this:
*** Task 1 [/]
- [ ] Step 1
- [ ] Step 2
- [ ] Step 3
Recently, I received via email comments from 4 reviewers on a
paper I'd
submitted for publication. The editor asked me to keep track of
how I'd
responded to all of the comments, so I tried this:
*** Reviewer 1 [/]
- [ ] Comment 1
- [ ] Comment 2
etc.
I cut the comments out of the email message and pasted them
directly into the
org file in Aquamacs Emacs. Some of the comments are quite
lengthy, others are
short.
My problem is that midway down a list of comments org-mode ceases
to recognize
that the comment checkboxes are associated with the heading. In
each case, the
last comment checkbox that is correctly associated with the
heading formats
differently (with Esc-Q) than the comments above it. The comment
checkboxes
that are associated correctly format as indented blocks with the
second and
subsequent lines of text left justified on the "[" of the first
line. The last
associated checkbox justifies the second and subsequent lines two
characters
left of the "-" of the first line. Subsequent, unassociated
checkboxes align
the "-" of the first line with last line of the item above it.
Here is an
example:
*** Reviewer 3 [2/6]
... (Several items omitted)
- [X] p. 7 In 1779, Kamehameha was a young man on his way up
as a
favored nephew of Kalaniopu`u, but isn't it a little early to
refer to his dynasty?
- [X] p. 7 It is true Kamehameha benefited greatly from Western
advice and weapons, but the tradition of conquest was well
established by the time he embarked on his career as a conqueror
by
chiefs including Kalaniopu`u, and especially Kahekili.
- [X] p. 7 According to traditions 'Umi's father had been
recognized
as paramount of the island. `Umi regained his father's status
by
putting down a rebellion of the five districts other than
Hamakua
and reunited the polity. I think of this as a civil war rather
than the capture of territory to which he had no previous claim.
In this case the first two items are counted in the headline, but
the last one
isn't.
If someone could point out what might be going wrong, I'll
appreciate it.
All the best,
Tom
