[FR] STARTUP: hidechecked

[FR] STARTUP: hidechecked

[unhammer]

Hi,

It'd be nice if there was an option to automatically fold list items
that are checked on startup, e.g.

    - [ ] open
    I want to see the details here
    - [X] closed
    I don't want to see these details

would be shown on opening the file as

#+STARTUP: hidechecked

    - [ ] open
    I want to see the details here
    - [X] closed...


(I didn't manage to find any previous discussion of this,
https://list.orgmode.org/ always gives ~800 unrelated hits when I try
searching, sorry if it's already been discussed.)


best regards,
Kevin

The behavior you describe works with headings. Plain lists don't have
as many features.

Thanks.

AFAIK, not even for headings - that would be an equivalent of "hide all
the done headings on startup".

IMHO, this kind of feature is a bit too specific. Users are free to add
things to `org-mode-hook', achieving the desired effect.

Although org doesn't have the feature you are asking for, I have the
following in my configuration that you may find useful:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (font-lock-add-keywords
   'org-mode
   `(("^[ \t]*\\(?:[-+*]\\|[0-9]+[).]\\)[ \t]+\\(\\(?:\\[@\\(?:start:\\)?[0-9]+\\][ \t]*\\)?\\[\\(?:X\\|\\([0-9]+\\)/\\2\\)\\][^\n]*\n\\)" 1 'org-headline-done prepend))
   'append)
#+end_src
