Hi!
I wonder if it is possible to define parts of content and "bind" it
to a reference which can be inserted multiple times.
In LaTeX, I am using:
,----[ LaTeX example ]
| \newcommand{\mycontent}{This is some content containing lists,
| headings, and much more which is defined once and pops up in my end
| document multiple times.}
|
| \chapter{First Chapter}
|
| \mycontent
|
| [...]
|
| \chapter{Last Chapter}
|
| Once again, I would like to state \mycontent
`----
So can this be done with Org-mode (and TeX export) as well?
Very vaguely I'd say this would look like:
,----[ Org-mode example guess ]
| #+NAME: mycontent
| #+BEGIN_QUOTE
| This is some content...
| #+END
|
| My content which is #+insert:mycontent can be used multiple times.
| Here we go again: #+insert:mycontent
`----

Sounds like macros in Org -- maybe check out that part of the manual?

Recently, there was a thread on a similar issue.
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/103942
If you can have external files, you can #+include (e.g. #+include:
"file::*heading" ) them multiple times. Since you cannot include from the
same document as the include keyword is in you’d need at least two files.
