Thanks for the suggestion, but this won't be considered a TO DO item by org, so not what I'm looking for (I won't be able, for example, to assign priorities, or look for TO DO only in this buffer, record the date automatically when closing the TO DO item, etc.). For the moment I'll stick with the org-inlinetask approach. Cheers, -- Ángel de Vicente http://angel-de-vicente.blogspot.com/

I just put (require 'org-inlinetask) in my .emacs file and the mentioned function and keybinding are available. It is not particularly pretty how inline tasks show in the file, but it is a solution. Many thanks, -- Ángel de Vicente http://angel-de-vicente.blogspot.com/

There is. In an Org file C-h w org-inlinetask-insert-task yields typically the message org-inlinetask-insert-task is on C-c C-x t Regards Marco

Inline tasks come to mind. Here's your example with inline tasks: , | * Installation of PC X | | ** Hardware configuration | blah,blah,blah, | | ** Software configuration | I intall app x, no trouble | | I try to install app y, but no luck | *** TODO App Y is giving trouble, fix | Details about trouble... | *** END | | I install app z, no trouble ` The command to insert an inline task is 'org-inlinetask-insert-task'; I believe that there is no default binding.

[O] Is it possible for a TODO item not to be an outline item?
Hi, I'm starting to use org for notes, and I realize that I don't know how to create a TODO item but without it being an outline item. Sorry if this is not the proper terminology. Let me explain what I would like to have. Let's say I have a file where I want to keep details about a new machine installation. I would have something like: , | * Installation of PC X | | ** Hardware configuration | blah,blah,blah, | | ** Software configuration | I intall app x, no trouble | | I try to install app y, but no luck | *** TODO App Y is giving trouble, fix | | I install app z, no trouble ` For the "software configuration" I just type notes of what I'm doing, and I would like to have TODO items for unfinished tasks. If I write something like above when I collapse the TODO item, all the information about the app Z collapses with it. I know that I could create another outline level for each of the apps (or at least for "app y" and "app z"), but that will force me to create extra levels whenever I want to insert a TODO item in the middle of a section. So basically I would like to have that TODO item but somehow without creating a new section. Is it possible? Thanks, -- Ángel de Vicente http://angel-de-vicente.blogspot.com/
