Agreed. Also, mousing over the folded text shows the unfolded text in the minibuffer. All the best, Tom -- Thomas S. Dye http://www.tsdye.com

And to know whether your objections apply as strongly to just revealing the brackets when the point is on them (not when they are being moused over) I don't use prettify-symbols-mode, but I am a fairly heavy user of AUCTeX's TeX-fold-mode, which hides all sorts of LaTeX code (and can be customised to hide even more in quite sophisticated ways). For example, it shows This is some \textit{emphasised} text. as This is some emphasised text. with the word "emphasised" in a different colour (to indicate that it's been folded) and with whatever fontification the argument of the \textit macro gets (italicised by default). Now, TeX-fold-mode has the behaviour you mention: as soon as you move point (not the mouse cursor) "into" some folded text, it gets unfolded (with | indicating point): This is some |\textit{emphasised} text. with the part "\textit{emphasised}" highlighted to indicate that it's actuall folded. Personally, I'm a *big* fan of this behaviour, even though I use visual-line-mode in my LaTeX buffers, which means that when text is temporarily unfolded, the paragraph may rewrap (and wrap back when point leaves the unfolded text causing it to be folded again). Since there is visual feedback (from the font colour) that some word or stretch of text is folded, I know that the text will unfold when I move point into it, so I don't find it distracting. The fact that the rest of the paragraph may rewrap is also not an issue for me, because I'm not actually focussing on that part of the text. Personally, I've also always found it annoying in Org that editing around links (or emphasis etc. with `org-hide-emphasis-markers' set to t) is unpredictable and I never really understood why functionality similar to TeX-fold-mode hadn't been implemented. I thinks it's a very straightforward and easy to understand method for indicating which character point is actually on, making editing much more comfortable.

[O] add-change-log-entry for orgfiles, header
Hi I have a couple of org files under VC (HG). For lisp and latex files my workflow is as follows - add-change-log-entry, which adds a nice reference like * emacs_keys.el ([(control super b)]): New: (global-set-key [(control super b)] 'ahg-heads) - then call vc-next-action which offers to insert the recent added entry of the Changelog file. - Long time ago Carsten Dominik wrote some addons for latex files so that references to sections are inserted in a ChangeLog file. Could there be such an extension for orgmode to get an entry such as 2016-10-14 Uwe Brauer * remember.org * Sun Sep 25 19:03:04 2016 (HG): undo strip. Or what ever value the header has.

[O] How to export tables to files from elips?
Hi list! Is there a way `f' such that `(f filename)' exports tables in the file `filename' to corresponding files as described by TABLE_EXPORT_FILE property? For context: https://github.com/phfrohring/org-to-blog/blob/c1312aeff1c097c3761d0b6bc84d3bb89edf2df4/org_to_blog.el#L87 Thx!

I guess this is a key part of this use case: it must be easy to find those notes. My (abridged) capture template looks like this: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (setq org-capture-templates '( ("m" "Mail options") ("mt" "mailtodo" entry (file+datetree "~/s/notes/tasks.org") "* TODO %^{Task} : %:subject %^G\nSCHEDULED: %t\n- From :: %:from\n- Subject :: %:subject\n- Email :: %a\n\n%?" :kill-buffer t) ("mn" "mailnote" entry (file+headline "~/s/notes/notes.org" "general notes and tasks") "* %^{Title} : %:subject %^G\n- From :: %:from\n- Subject :: %:subject\n- Email :: %a\n\n%?\n\n%U") )) #+end_src Tag search etc. in org makes finding the notes relatively painless. As a bonus, the "mt" template is to allow me to get to INBOX 0 by making sure I don't leave emails lying around unread or ticked. If they need further processing, an appropriate TODO task is created which links back to the email. This task is scheduled for immediate action by default but obviously easily changed during the capture, very often by unscheduling but adding a deadline, for instance. -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.2.50.1, Org release_8.3.6-1184-g29830f
