OK, so I'll just use M-/. I have the keywords defined with #+TODO:. I just tried playing around with them a bit, and I have found that the "problem" is not exactly as I thought: keywords with dashes, such as MY-TODO, do not complete with M-TAB if I try to complete from after the dash, i.e. M-TAB on MY- does not complete. TODO keyword completion does not work at all if there is already a headline, e.g. * TO[M-TAB here] Buy bread So, if this is a bug, I now have a workaround; if it's not a bug, then I now know how to properly use TODO completion. I'll leave it to you (the Org-mode devs) to decide whether to treat this as a bug. Thanks, Aidan Gauland
