Thanks a lot (and thanks Jambunathan K as well).

Unfortunately I could not find it, nor could I find a summary of the
syntax for org files.

Is there a syntax reference card somewhere?

Not that I know of...

This would be most useful: I don't think I could have found this by myself, except knowing the name of what I was searching for. Maybe I should do it (it would be a nice way to really learn the syntax).
