Nice! I'm afraid I'm unqualified to give any comments/criticism on your code, since I'm fairly new to elisp myself. Looks better than what I had though, at least to work around the missing 'subtree-at-point feature. Maybe someone else can chime in. I did notice that with my function, org-up-heading-safe didn't always behave the way I wanted it to (like if it was already *on* the root headline). But I only needed the function a few times, so I didn't bother with improving it. > Cheers, > Daniele Best, Bruce
