You can set `org-list-ending-method' to 'regexp, meaning that you will need to provide two blank lines (that's configurable though, see `org-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists' and `org-list-end-regexp') to end a list. Otherwise, lists are determined by indentation, so, in your example, TEXT end the list as it is less indented than any of its items. Thus, when pressing TAB, Org indent the line accordingly, that is as a line belonging to the headline but not to the list. Also note that, if TEXT isn't already typed, you can use C-j after item to stay inside list and go on typing. Regards, Hello Nicolas, ok, thanks, I checked all that but could not find a setting that makes sense for me. I do not understand why when pressing TAB being at point ^: - item ^ results in - item ^ but having - item TEXT ^ and pressing TAB results in - item TEXT ^ How can I get the indentation same as with empty lines? -- Rainer attachment: rainer_stengele.vcf___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

You can't. Once TEXT is typed at column 0, by definition, the list before is over, and indentation reflects that. And this makes sense: how could an user end a list if all his text was eventually being inserted inside the list? On the other hand, if no text is typed yet, like in your first case, the list isn't over, and TAB will indent line into the last item of the list, as if you had typed C-j. I hope it is clearer now.

Regards, -- Nicolas Nicolas, thank you for explaining. Well, it still bugs me. Many times I start with something like headline item1 Text belonging to item1 Text belonging to item1 Text belonging to item1 item2 Text belonging to item2 Text belonging to item2 Text belonging to item2 and then later want to bring in more structure, making item1 and item2 a list item. I would then expect to get the Text belonging to lines being indented as in headline - item1 Text belonging to item1 Text belonging to item1 Text belonging to item1 - item2 Text belonging to item2 Text belonging to item2 Text belonging to item2 but I get this: headline - item1 Text belonging to item1 Text belonging to item1 Text belonging to item1 - item2 Text belonging to item2 Text belonging to item2 Text belonging to item2 of course I can indent via macros or manually, I just don't find the behaviour ok.

Select region from item1 to third Text belonging to item1, and use C-c -. This command turns a region into an item (with development version of Org, that is).
