I also think, for the sake of the efficiency we're trying to achieve, that we must forget about the past in one "big bang" (v7.8 or whatever). Supporting it temporarily in v7.8 and not anymore in 7.9 won't really help, IMHO. Of course, it must be clearly stated that this change will break every old report. That must be the first visible item of the description of 7.8. Regarding a function to automate the changes, this is what I used this afternoon (quite dumb, certainly to be improved): #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun my/org-propertyze-babel-line () (interactive) (search-forward-regexp ":") (delete-backward-char 2) (insert "\n#+PROPERTY: ")) #+end_src Put point after `#+BABEL:' and apply it as many times as needed.
