Subject: Upper or lower case in BEGIN_SRC and other keywords
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2016 12:13:07 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.02.1606161207210.18358@shell.miskatonic.org> (raw)

When I use the <s shortcut for #+BEGIN_SRC, Org puts it in upper case.  And 
#+RESULTS is in upper case too.  I noticed other people have these keywords in 
lower case in examples or config files, so I looked in the manual, which says 
[1]

"Org uses option keywords (like #+TITLE to set the title) and environment 
keywords (like #+BEGIN_HTML to start a HTML environment). They are written in 
uppercase in the manual to enhance its readability, but you can use lowercase in 
your Org files."

There's a footnote [2] that says:

"Easy templates insert lowercase keywords and Babel dynamically inserts 
#+results."

How come this doesn't happen for me?  I don't see any variable that's making 
things default to upper case for me.

This isn't a problem ... I'm just curious.

Bill
