It seems that Org fileconversion, which does exactly this with hidestarsfile and which I announced on the list here with four posts spread over February, did not yet get through the noise. Even though I asked some questions then. :-( http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/51981 > I _guess_ one could try defining something like a NO-BREAK-SPACE character > to behave like a star at the beginning of the line when it comes to > determining headlines, so you basically have a character that *looks* blank > you can use for the non-final stars, This is a nice idea and I just added it to fileconversion 0.6 as nbspstarsfile. With the small generalization of fileconversion I did some time ago to cover also markdown headlines (Peter Salazar, any feedback?) it was very easy to extend it also to nbspstarsfile: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-hacks.html#fileconversion For the #+STARTUP keyword now nbspstarsfile is used in favor of showstars because I think it aligns better with the already existing hidestars, hidestarsfile and markdownstarsfile.
