So I went through the same steps as before: 1. Pulled the latest Emacs Org Mode
2. Ran the following command in a terminal to get a clean Emacs without a config: emacs -Q -L ./lisp -l org 3. Create a new org file 4.. Type (literally) the following: * test 5. You will get a file containing "* test" exactly, no newline at the end 6. Do __not__ save the file 7. I then set the 'org-log-into-drawer' variable to true by evaluating the following environment variable with 'M-:': 'M-:' (setq org-log-into-drawer t) This returned 't' in the minibuffer. 8. I then used C-c C-c, and received the following example output: ``` * tes :LOGBOOK: - Note taken on [2022-06-27 Mon 22:38] \\ Adding note with org-log-into-drawer enabled :END: t ``` Let me know if this is the desired output in that respect, or if this fulfills the weird edge case present.
