Hi Marvin,

> Is there quick method for converting a bunch of text to plain list ?

C-u C-c - makes every line of the active region a list item

(C-c - makes the region one item, the bullet on the first line)

If you want each word to become an item, what I usually do is replace
(optionnaly by regexp if you master that) spaces by a newline (C-q C-j) and a
dash, and then, org-moving-around the list nicens it up, typically.

> (C-M-% SPC * C-q C-j * [A-z] … … …)
