Subject: Set tags in region
Date: Fri, 9 May 2014 21:53:05 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+M2ft_LW8Hgx+PTXbNBzW1JCunvzHwNCfpTJ+nLP1HoO9r12Q@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,


Just curious of there's a way to set the tags in a region all at once?
I see there's a way to do it via agenda, but I was curious if there
was also a way to do it on a group of headlines from the buffer
itself. In various google strategies, it looked like the answer was
no.

This is just a random file (making a camping packing/shopping list),
so to do it via the way that seemed apparent was:

C-c a
> to restrict to the file
s to conduct a "fake search" that would just give all the headlines in
the buffer
highlight region
: to set tags

It would have just been easier to C-space on a region and set them in
groups right from the buffer. I sort of expected something like C-u
C-c C-c to set region tags? Thinking about it, I suppose since these
happened to be tagged with :export:, I could have done an M-x
replace-string and appended my additional tag.


Thanks!
John
