By the way, it would be lovely if it were possible to use emacs's built-in artist-mode: http://www.cinsk.org/emacs/emacs-artist.html to draw diagrams inside of an org mode buffer. Right now, hitting M-x artist-mode while already in org-mode clobbers the org file. But with some code twizzling, maybe it would be possible to use artist-mode to interactively draw ascii graphics, just like we can now create ascii tables. That would make org-mode a complete text-based system -- a plain text paradise. Scott On 8/15/2008 6:34 PM, Eddward DeVilla wrote: > I think that's a bug. prefixing the lines with : ought to do it.
