It seems that inconsistencies with regard to lowercase/uppercase conventions still abound. Is there a reason that `org-insert-property- drawer' has a hardcoded `(insert ":PROPERTIES:\n:END:")'? I'd really like to customize this. (Sorry for the repeated mail, I sent the first one before I joined the mailing list.) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

The choice of upper/lower case when automatically inserting various Org elements is mostly historical. Several commands determine the case from context though (not possible in this particular case). If you wish the case to be fully customizeable, feel free to submit a patch. But that patch would need to work across Org, not just for property drawers. > (Sorry for the repeated mail, I sent the first one before I joined the > mailing list.)

Okay, if there is no principled reason why it shouldn't be customizable, I can try to get around to write a patch. I assume there's a lot of other hardcoded cases flying around though, so it might be a while. > That one is most likely still under moderation. Our moderation is > manual, done by volunteers. I see, sorry for the spam. May the moderators just delete/ignore that one then.

Yup. That's part of the problem. Another part is implementing such customization in such a way that it is easy to remember the existence of this new customization next time we add a new command that inserts Org markup automatically. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
