I have an org-file wth the folowing: - [ ] A (setq struct (org-list-struct)) - [-] B (org-list-get-checkbox 41 struct) - [ ] C (org-list-set-checkbox 41 struct "[X]") - [ ] D (org-list-get-checkbox 41 struct) - [ ] E (org-list-write-struct struct (org-list-parents-alist struct)) In A I fill the struct. B displays "[-]" C displays "[X]" D displays "[X]", so the struct is correctly updated. E gives: #<marker in no buffer> What is going wrong here? -- Cecil Westerhof
