Which brings back an old idea I had: letting special entries with a syntax like: ***: an entry here Those entries would be "inlined": not foldable but TODO/tag-able headlines. I guess this would breaks the whole logic of the structure behind org-mode files (not to speak of regexps), so it might not be worth thinking deeper about this, unless it triggers possible workarounds. As for taking meeting notes, I've done quite well with the current limitations you are mentionning. I use list most of the times and I restricts headlines to what might really need a TODO or a tag. One thing that would perhaps make life easier is a simple way to convert list items to headlines in a region. - one - two would become * one * two or *** one *** two if the hierarchy above requires it. `C-c *' outside tables could do it. Or this could be added to `C-c -' -- Bastien
