Re: LaTeX export > Avoid \newline command after timestampsX-Draft-From: ("nnimap+mc:INBOX.sncb")

Hi Francesco,

thanks for this.  The reason why I put this is is to make sure that  
text after that line will start
in a new line, and now flow into the scheduled/deadline line.   For  
example:

*** DONE My Task                                                 :Be:
    SCHEDULED: <2010-03-01 Mon> DEADLINE: <2010-03-05 Fri>
    this should start a new line but does not with your patch

Do you disagree that this is the right thing to do?  Do you know a  
method to achieve the same result without generating extra white space?

- Carsten
