Hi all, I have
(setq org-todo-keywords '((sequence "TODO(t!)" "STARTED(s!)" "WAITING(w@/@)" "|" "DONE(d@/@)" "CANCELLED(c@/@)" "DEFERRED(D@/@)"))) in my .emacs. In http://orgmode.org/org.html#TODO-basics I read C-u C-c C-t Select a specific keyword using completion or (if it has been set up) the fast selection interface. For the latter, you need to assign keys to TODO states, see Per-file keywords, and Setting tags, for more information. When I hit C-u C-c C-t on a headline, the result is that the headline cycles through my TODO states (as defined above). In effect, C-u C-c C-t behaves as C-c C-t is documented to. I've checked through my org configuration for other settings that affect todo sequences and states and don't think I've got anything that accounts for this. I'm perfectly happy with the behaviour I observe. But, it isn't what one would expect from reading the docs. (I suspect that the docs might not have been updated when org-todo-keywords was introduced. Or, as has happened before, I've misunderstood something.)
