In the 'Keep track of lists and notes' section, the following source code line: Start a new document (*C-x b), seems to be missing a trailing asterisk with regard to the keyboard shortcut C-x b, resulting in what looks like *C-x as the initial command. Fixed looks like this: Start a new document (*C-x b*), In Agendas: New shortcuts, the following source code line: - C-c .* -- add date Seems to be missing a lead asterisk, which causes a confusing looking shortcut in both the source and compiled versions, as well as a lack of bolding in the source version. Fixed looks like this: - *C-c .* -- add date In Agendas - Appointments and Deadlines section, the following source code line: /Call fred/ (*M-RET*Call fred), but at the end press *C-c .*. Should contain an additional space, between *M-RET* and 'Call fred.' The lack of space is causing the entire statement to be bolded in the source version, where 'M-RET' and 'C-c .' are the only things which should be bolded, as well as showing the C-c command as *C-c .. which is sorely confusing. Fixed looks so: /Call fred/ (*M-RET* Call fred), but at the end press *C-c .* . Thanks for putting together a nice tutorial! It helped me learn orgmode very quickly, despite the delay to figure out the typos. --001a11333dce2d3f7c04e19610de Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
