I tried them and didn't saw the difference. With the :ignore: tag the headline is ignored, but the text below it is exported. This is useful for situations like the front matter of a book, which is mostly assembled by LaTeX. The :ignore: tag allows you to isolate the various LaTeX commands in your document so they are separate from the headings with text that you'll write, but still contribute to the export. > > + if I put a plain text link in a sidenote (like > "\sidenote{see http://AgileManifesto.org}"), it doesn't get > automagically converted to a link as it is in the text body.

IIUC, I think you need to tell Org mode that this is a link: \sidenote{see [[http://AgileManifesto.org]]}. > + using links as specific Latex markup seems a great idea.

I agree that it would be useful to make the appearance of links in the Org mode buffer configurable on a per-link basis. Different colors for different kinds of link might go some way to resolving the visual ambiguities you describe. However, I don't think this is currently possible. Expanding link functionality is something that has been discussed on the mailing list every once in a while for the last several years, but this is an idea that fails to find traction with the Org mode developers. I reckon they know best. In practice, I mouse over the link to see the link type in the minibuffer. hth, Tom -- Thomas S. Dye http://www.tsdye.com
