Subject: Get counting of items
Date: Tue, 1 Apr 2014 10:20:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJkULmnCfqE9ODEQZ=4FmUG6-XXSVNkWrZ82hV-JLK1wTF5EGw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Dear helpers,
I would like to get a counting of the first level items in a buffer
(or even better in a region). Since I‘m not a programmer I tried
this, which doesn‘t work:
(defun org-items-counting ()
"Print a message with the counting of the first level outline items
in the current buffer"
(interactive)
(save-excursion
(goto-char (point-min))
(message "Counting of first level outline items: %d"
(count-matches "\n* "))))
Probably there is a very much better approaching to this problem.
Could please somebody help me?
Thanks in advance,
Martin
