Customize org-blank-before-new-entry. I have the following setting: ,---- | org-blank-before-new-entry is a variable defined in `org.el'. | Its value is | ((heading) | (plain-list-item)) | `---- If you are in the body whatever blank lines you created will stay ,----[ before M-RET ] | * TODO foo | <point here> `---- hitting M-RET gives me this ,---- | * TODO foo | | * `---- Now you had a blank line after * TODO foo so it's the body of that item and M-RET should preserve that. I have org-insert-heading-respect-content set to t I normally create headlines from the task itself so I don't press RET on * TODO foo if I only want to make a new headline following it. Just * TODO foo M-RET to get ,---- | * TODO foo | * `---- I get no extra blank lines with point on the heading and using C-S-RET. > > ***** C-<RET> does not seem to do what the info page suggests. > It seems to go into a column selection mode.

C-S-<RET> Does do what it is supposed to, > so, I guess a good workaround is C-S-<RET>, then backspace over the TODO. ,---- | ** TODO foo | | ** TODO foo | foo bar baz<point here> | a b c | ** More stuff | * rest of stuff `---- with point at <point here> and C-RET I get this: ,---- | ** TODO foo | | ** TODO foo | foo bar baz | a b c | ** <point here> | ** More stuff | * rest of stuff `---- What version are you running and on what platform?
