Function names in org.el tend to use "heading". #+begin_src sh grep defun org.el | grep heading | wc -l #+end_src #+RESULTS: : 28 #+begin_src sh grep defun org.el | grep headline | wc -l #+end_src #+RESULTS: : 3 > I have the impression that both terms (heading and headline) are > synonyms. Though, is this true, or is there some subtle nuance? I think Org uses them interchangeably. One of the three functions above that use "headline" is `org-find-exact-headline-in-buffer', and the function immediately below it is `org-find-exact-heading-in-directory'. -- Kyle
