[O] Capitalisation and good taste ?

2012-01-09 Thread François Pinard
Hi, Org people. I really have mixed feelings about capitalisation of #+WORDS, and wonder if some consensus and good taste has developed over time among Org mode users. What is the collective wisdom saying as being nicer among: #+LATEX_HEADER: #+Latex_Header: #+LaTeX_HEADER: #+latex_header: etc.

Hi, Org people. If I use: #+BEGIN_SRC bash +n line numbering resumes from the last listed number. Is there a way to "resume" with a user specified number? My intent would be to have the full numbered listing in an appendix, but then, excerpt a few group of lines here and there in the runnin

Hi, Org people. This is half a tease, half a report :-) Section 15.5 Customization in the Org manual says: "There are more than 180 variables that can be used to customize Org." In a recent message to the mailing list, someone said 580 or so variables. Another gave a number over one thousand.
