It’s also possible, if you want finer control of what’s shown 
(instead of showing all the properties), to add a 'columnview' 
block. It would show a formatted table of whichever properties you 
specify (from certain subtrees or from the entire file), arranged 
in the order you choose. It’s under “Capturing column view” in the 
manual. I seem not to keep the types of information that benefit 
from it, but it’s there.
