My list edit suggestions are mostly motivated by the behavior of emacs python mode. 0) Enable backspace to outdent while creating nested lists, this will make it extremely easy to close an inner list and continue. 1) orgtbl is nice as a minor mode. Why not go once step further and enable org as a minor mode; it would be nice to be able to create structured lists in email. 2) At present, when you create a new list item, point sometimes appears to land at the beginning of the line, would be nice if you could just start typing after creating the new item. 3) Would be nice to be able to start a list without having to create the first bullet by hand, but I dont have a good suggestion for how to go about achieving it Thanks, --Raman -- Best Regards, --raman Email: raman@users.sf.net WWW: http://emacspeak.sf.net/raman/ AIM: emacspeak GTalk: tv.raman.tv@gmail.com PGP: http://emacspeak.sf.net/raman/raman-almaden.asc Google: tv+raman IRC: irc://irc.freenode.net/#emacs
