Hi, all
I want to empty all my contents but leave only with the headlines and the
properties, is there a fast way?
Cheers,
gylns

Make backup copies before you try this....
For one file:
perl -ne 'print if /^\*+ / or /^\s*:PROPERTIES:\s*$/../^\s*:END:\s*$/' old.org > stripped.org
For a bunch of files, with .bak backup copies
perl -ni.bak -e 'print if /^\*+ / or /^\s*:PROPERTIES:\s*$/../^\s*:END:\s*$/' *.org

Hmm... perl.
Within emacs, that would be something like
C-<
M-x keep-lines RET
^\*\|:PROPERTIES:\(.\|\n\)+?:END:
(\n via "C-q C-j")
...
right?
