The section you found in the manual and the value of org-special-properties would seem the logical places to look for such a complete list. However, there are some discrepancies in the two. There seem to be some "very special" properties that are mentioned in the doc but not in the variable. > I was thinking that "7.2 Special Properties" in the manual would be > that list, but then noticed a property possible to use for searches, > but not available in that list (the LEVEL-property).

It should probably be added to sec. 7.2, and maybe added to org-special-properties. Here's my census of special properties from these three places: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * Special properties | Name | doc sec. 7.2 | org-special-properties | other places | |--------------+--------------+------------------------+------------------| | ID | yes | no | | | TODO | yes | yes | yes (sec 10.3.3) | | TAGS | yes | yes | | | ALLTAGS | yes | yes | | | CATEGORY | yes | no | yes (sec 10.3.3) | | PRIORITY | yes | yes | yes (sec 10.3.3) | | DEADLINE | yes | yes | yes (sec 10.3.3) | | SCHEDULED | yes | yes | yes (sec 10.3.3) | | CLOSED | yes | yes | | | TIMESTAMP | yes | yes | | | TIMESTAMP_IA | yes | yes | | | CLOCKSUM | yes | yes | | | CLOCKSUM_T | yes | yes | | | BLOCKED | yes | yes | | | ITEM | yes | no | yes (sec 10.3.3) | | FILE | yes | yes | | | LEVEL | no | no | yes (sec 10.3.3) | --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Are there others? Should org-special-properties include them all? -- Nick
