Two separate commands serve much the same purpose from the author's
point of view:
- C-c C-x b (org-tree-to-indirect-buffer) opens an indirect buffer for
the subtree
- C-x n s (org-narrow-to-subtree) narrows the existing buffer to the
subtree
Both of these "hoist" the subtree outline to focus the workspace and are
invaluable for large writing projects.
Is there any preference (so far as org is concerned)? Are there any
"gotchas" that I should note?
Thanks for any comments,
Alan

Just a personal preference: I use narrowing because I don't like
multiplying buffers.

Thanks Bastien. I like narrowing a lot better but only just discovered
it. It is a terrific facility.
Cheers,

Also available with the `s' speedy key (just in case.)
