Is there any way to turn a headline (and its subtree) into a plain
list (and nested list items)? Or better yet, turn all level N and
below headlines into plain lists at the corresponding level?

Hi Gary, Just select the subtree of headings you want to convert and hit C-c - In the example below I select lines 2-17 (Subheading 1 to the line before All done) --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * Lists ** This is a heading *** Subheading 1 *** Subheading 2 [2011-05-06 Fri 14:50] *** Subheading3 [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] **** Three.1 [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] **** Three.2 [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] *** Four [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] **** Five [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] ***** Six [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] * All done [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- and then C-c - gives me this: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * Lists ** This is a heading - Subheading 1 - Subheading 2 [2011-05-06 Fri 14:50] - Subheading3 [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] - Three.1 [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] - Three.2 [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] - Four [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] - Five [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] - Six [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] * All done [2011-05-06 Fri 14:51] --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Regards, Bernt ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

With a numeric prefix argument N, select the Nth bullet from this list. If there is an active region when calling this, selected text will be changed into an item. With a prefix argument, all lines will be converted to list items. If the first line already was a list item, any item marker will be removed from the list. Finally, even without an active region, a normal line will be converted into a list item. It will convert headings into nested list items, but not the other way. Regards, .j.

For the latter, you could use org-map-entries: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (defun org-convert-low-levels-to-list (level) "Convert headings in file equal or greater than LEVEL to lists. A numeric prefix argument can be used to set the level. The default level is three" (interactive "P") (let ((level (number-to-string (or level 3)))) (org-map-entries 'org-ctrl-c-minus (concat "+LEVEL>=" level) 'file))) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- There is also an FAQ that covers what the other replies have said. http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#convert-plain-lists-to-headlines Best, Matt ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
