Re: [O] Sort Phrases
Hi Giovanni, - substitute "," with \n > - sort region > - substitute \n with "," > 1. I am new in org-mode and emacs. Can you please tell me what is "sort region" and what are the key bindings ? 2. Is there a way by which I can replace all the ',' with '\n' and do the reverse automatically ?

Re: [O] Sort Phrases
Hi Giovanni, You need to put the following lines into your .emacs to sort WORDS and LINES. --8<---cut here---start->8--- ;;;Sort words (defun sort-words (reverse beg end) "Sort words in region alphabetically, in REVERSE if negative. Prefixed with negative \\[universal-argument], sorts in reverse. The variable `sort-fold-case' determines whether alphabetic case affects the sort order. See `sort-regexp-fields'." (interactive "*P\nr") (sort-regexp-fields reverse "\\w+" "\\&" beg end)) --8<---cut here---start->8--- Then to sort words like apple, mango, oranges, cat, elephant You need to do M-x sort-words To sort lines, similarly do M-x sort-lines - *Sanjib Sikder *Ph.D. Fellow Chemical Engineering IIT Bombay* * On Mon, Oct 22, 2012 at 5:10 PM, Giovanni Ridolfi wrote: > Da: Sanjib Sikder > > Inviato: Lunedì 22 Ottobre 2012 13:27 > > > > I know it is possible to sort words and sort lines alphabetically in > emacs org-mode > > Would you please be so kind to explain to me how? > > I have only: > org-sort-entries M-x ...

[O] Sort Phrases
Hi, I know it is possible to sort words and sort lines alphabetically in emacs org-mode but is it possible to sort phrases ? For example, Face the music, Fifteen minutes of fame, A beautiful mind. I want to sort it alphabetically like, A beautiful mind, Face the music, Fifteen minutes of fame. Is it possible ? Thanks. - *Sanjib Sikder *Ph.D. Fellow Chemical Engineering IIT Bombay* *
