Hi everyone,

if I have an org-file with this in it:

#+EMAIL: jkitchin@cmu.edu

is there an org lisp command to get the email address after I have opened
the file? I am looping through many files to generate a report, and would
like to do this in emacs-lisp. I had hoped org-entry-get would do it, but
it does not (it will retrieve it from #+PROPERTY: EMAIL jkitchin@cmu.edu).

Is it possible to define other keywords similar to that? E.g.

#+ANDREWID: jkitchin

and then to be able to read them from a lisp command (without writing the
parsing code myself)? something like (org-entry-get-keyword "ANDREWID").

I could not find anything like this in the property API (
http://orgmode.org/manual/Using-the-property-API.html) which is where i
thought it would be.

Thanks!

John
