Why not create a specialized function which might ask for the title of the headline and insert that headline along with the properties? Or even insert an /empty/ headline with these properties and place the point after the string of asterisks and a space, so that you can type the title? Or, if we are at it, why not use Yasnippet for that? Not exactly what you want, but maybe this is what you /need/? If not, I guess that advising org-return /might/ be the way to go. (For instance, you might check whether the user hits RET with the point at the end of a headline with empty contents.) > Thanks! > Subhan Hth, -- Marcin Borkowski http://octd.wmi.amu.edu.pl/en/Marcin_Borkowski Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science Adam Mickiewicz University
