Hello, from Debian bug #645214 (http://bugs.debian.org/645214):
org-mode doesn't seems to honour correctly the org-list-indent-offset variable (a recent addition). See the following steps: 1- Run "emacs -q" 2- M-x org-mode 3- M-x set-variable org-list-indent-offset 8 4- open /tmp/t.org 5- Write the following - item 1 [TAB]- item 2 When you press [TAB], "- item 2" is indented only two spaces right, not 8 as org-list-indent-offset describes, thats seems to be a bug. But now, if over the item 2 line you do 6- M-left 7- M-right The "- item 2" will be correctly indented 8 spaces to the right. So org-list-indent-offset is correctly working in this case. There wasn't any patch provided by the submitter. Cheers, --Seb
