Hi Eric,
thanks for answering.

O.K. I got it (I guess). What a pitty, because it would be very nice
to be able to split lecture notes into either individual notes per
class or into a full lecture script by simply exporting the full
document or a single subtree.
Do you see any chance that the new way of exporting using
org-elements, recently discussed will help to get this feature.
At least, it seems to me it would be easier doable.
