-------

If I have this structure, with point marked by the "$":

* Heading Level 1
** Heading Level 2
<normal text here>$

Is there a way to have the current place in the outline [Heading Level 1 =
=3D> Heading Level 2] temporarily echoed in the minibuffer? Also important =
is that the point shouldn't have to be on the heading title for it to work.

At the moment I am using 'which-function-mode' to accomplish something simi=
lar: it displays the current subheading in the mode line. However it relies=
 on Imenu (so it needs to be rescanned when new headings are added). If any=
body knows a better way I would be interested in hearing about it.

Cheers,
Charles
