Eric, You already mentioned your mappings in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-05/msg00153.html Thanks!
Finally got myself to write a little lisp to solve my problem and mapped it to go For what it's worth, here it is (but it solves a very specific problem): (defun guivho-insert-topic-under-heading() "Expand heading and insert hyphen and inactive timestamp. Cursor is expected to be in an org header line" (interactive) (let ((sp " ") (hyphen "-")) (org-end-of-line) (evil-append 1) (org-return) (insert hyphen sp) (org-time-stamp nil t) (insert sp) (evil-force-normal-state) (evil-append 0))) This now always inserts a 'dash space timestamp space' line immediately under the current org header, whether it was collapsed or not. Hey, it's not beautiful, but it solves my problem :) And, to whom it may concern, org and evil make a nice combo :) Guido On 30 March 2017 at 12:14, Guido Van Hoecke <gui...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Eric, > > Care to share your org-evil mappings? > > One 'conflict' which bites me every time is this: > > I hit /blabla to locate a heading directly under which I want to insert a > text line. > > I then hit enter to acknowledge the find. > > The display shows the heading line followed by its body lines (which all > start with a hyphen) > > I then hit o to insert a line directly under the heading and before the > first existing detail line. > > The result is however that the heading body closes, and that a line is > added before the next header line, so under all existing detail lines of > this header line. > > This undesired behavior only happens if the heading was closed at the time > of the find.
