Alternatively, you can set `org-special-ctrl-a/e' to t and use C-a for your desired movement. Thanks., -- ఎందరో మహానుభావులు అందరికి వందనములు.

Bastien, this seems to cause a problem with org-ctrl-c-minus when trying to cycle a bullet point past +. That is, it works if the bullet is - so you can cycle to the next which is + but you cannot cycle past that. I've tried this batch with org up to date a few minutes ago (ignore my signature info below as this emacs is running a slightly older org). Emacs was started with -Q.

I'm not sure I'm in favor of this change, though, I expect it to cause other problems and the benefit looks small for now. Do you see other reasons than M-m where stars as whitespace chars are useful? What about *markup*?

What about *markup*? I have no issues with the current behaviour (i.e. the behaviour without your patch). I only tried out the patch to see what would happen! ;-) I never use M-m, relying on C-a (well, org variant actually) to do what I want. thanks, eric -- : Eric S Fraga, GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D : in Emacs 24.3.50.1 and Org 7.9.3e-988-g1f8c8d ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
