Would someone with an up-to-date version try this out. org-version reports: Org-mode version 5.23a version reports: GNU Emacs 22.1.50.1 (powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0, Carbon Version 1.6.0) of 2007-10-02 on applecore.inf.ed.ac.uk - Aquamacs Distribution 1.2a I have the following list under a headline, with blank entries: *** Vacation Days 1. <2008-03-20 Thu> 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. If I (fold and then) unfold the headline to "CHILDREN", I see the following: *** Vacation Days 1. <2008-03-20 Thu>... 3. 4. ... 6. This looks odd to me: item number 2 is folded, as is item number 5. It looks like an out of sequence list, so I tried to renumber it using C-c C-c. Then I see: *** Vacation Days 1. <2008-03-20 Thu>...2. 3. 4. ...5. 6. In recreating this, I discovered my inconsistency which seems to cause this: line items number 2 and 5 do not have a space after their period. Add some spaces, and there is no weirdness. Take all the spaces away, and then "CHILDREN" folded headlines look like: *** Vacation Days 1. <2008-03-20 Thu>... Now that I know that what looked like an 'out of sequence' list is just folded in a weird way, I'm over it. I can certainly add the place holder space when I create blank line items manually (they are added automatically when I use M-. But it is curious, and probably unexpected behavior. Is this easy to fix or has it already been fixed in the current update? Maybe no fix is required. -Ben (And thanks again for org-mode, and the mailing list too!)
