Subject: Re: outline-magic incompatible with org-mode

Message-ID: <1366943dd9696b16ade1100b70e42776@science.uva.nl> (raw)

For those of you who don't know, outline-magic is an older package that 
adds visibility cycling and structure editing to outline-mode and 
outline-minor-mode.  All this stuff is already in org-mode.  I guess 
you are using to get cycling support in other modes?

outline-magic modifies the keymap of outline-mode.  Since org-mode is 
derived from outline-mode, it inherits all those keybindings, and then 
overwrites them where needed.

The problem here seems to be that org.el does not explicitly bind TAB 
to org-cycle.  The only binding for org-cycle currently is C-i.  If TAB 
is not bound otherwise, that binding gets passed through from C-i to 
TAB, but if there is an explicit binding for TAB, it takes precedence.

Could you try if it helps to add

    (define-key org-mode-map [(tab)] 'org-cycle)

somewhere near the end of org.el?
