This is the first time I have used declutter, and I think this is going to handle org-mode tags very well. Declutter is completely optional because it requires @bool tree-declutter = True. The body text of @data tree-declutter-patterns determines what gets decluttered. For my test I used the following rule: RULE ^([^:]*):([\w_@]+:)+\s*$ REPLACE \1 There are two parts to the regex. The head ^([^:]*) (\1) is retained. The tail :([\w_@]+:)+\s*$ contains all the tags. The regex is subtle, and not perfect: 1. The tail will match :tag1:tag2: but *not* :tag1: :tag2: 2. The entire pattern will fail if colons appear in the head. 3. The entire pattern will fail if anything besides whitespace follows the tags. It's not easy to see how to improve the regex. For example, replacing ^([^:]*) by ^([^:]*) does not work, as you can see for yourself on the regex testing page <https://pythex.org/>. I invite all you regex gurus to suggest improvements. Unless I hear objections, I am going to comment out the code in the org mode reader and writer that inserts or delete tags. All comments welcome.
