Hi,

lately I'm using checkboxes a lot. They are fine, but I tend to have items
with many checkboxes in them. As I work on an item I check some of them
as done C-c C-c, but since I have many checkboxes and I don't always
work in them in order, I end up having many checkboxes around, some
checked as done, some unchecked.

What I'm trying to find is a way to automatically move a checkbox to the
bottom of the list when I check it, so that all unchecked items are at
the beginning and all the checked ones at the end. Any ideas?

Many thanks,

Hi,

never mind. As so many other times (blush) I figured out the answer
right after posting the question. I was trying with a test file like the
following and with the org-sort (C-c ^) command. I assumed I had to
issue the command in the TODO line, which tells me there is "Nothing to
sort". Actually it looks like I can do it in any of the Task lines and
it works exactly as I wanted.

Orgmode to rule the world! :-)
