I am a bit surprised that you say this, as Org-mode does overrule the special beginning/end of line commands that visual line mode normally installs. Have you not missed these? Have you been playing with org-special-ctrl-a/e, and org-special-ctrl-k, and what do you think should the behavior be in this case, if visual-line-mode is active? Thanks for pointing out that mode, it look interesting and seems to be a lot more usable with Org than longlines.el - Carsten > From the v23 NEWS file: > > ** Visual Line mode provides support for editing by visual lines. > It turns on word-wrapping in the current buffer, and rebinds C-a, C-e, > and C-k to commands that operate by visual lines instead of logical > lines.
