Changing the heading separator from ** to ---** (twiki topic edition)

Changing the heading separator from ** to ---** (twiki topic edition)

[Al]

Hello,

I generally use org-mode to edit twiki topics as it's full of marvelous features.

One of the main feature of org-mode I can't use is the outline capability as the
heading syntax is choosen by twiki not me, which forbids to use '****' for 
level 4 (this will be '---++++'). 

There was a thread on March 16th which was discussion something like this.

Something like this:
(add-hook 'outline-minor-mode-hook
      (lambda ()
        (setq outline-regexp "---\\++")
        (define-key outline-minor-mode-map [(tab)] 'org-cycle)
        (define-key outline-minor-mode-map [(control tab)] 'org-cycle)
       (define-key outline-minor-mode-map [(shift tab)] 'org-global-cycle)))

works perfectly in any-mode + outline-minor-mode.

However, I'd really like to use org-mode for all editing (tables, colors, links,
....)

Is there a solution to use org-mode and just change the heading separator from
* to ---+
** to ---++
*** to ---+++

etc

Thanks in advance.

No.

You can have tables with orgtbl-mode, but I think it will not get much  
better than that.

The only other way would be to write import and export filters
that do the headline conversion for you, so that the file
being edited is actually a valid Org file.

Thank you for your answer.

As I'm not too fluent in elisp,  I will write a small script to do that.
