To list `org-` variables:

  C-h v org- TAB

You can try the following:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE

  ; find help for the mode's key map
  C-h b

  ; find help for the major mode
  C-s major

  ; click on org-end-of-line
  ; click on org.el
  ; there you find a file of 24936 lines to search

#+END_EXAMPLE

Thanks, Nicolas, for doing a test.

I know already that it works with a minimal config.
My problem really is I have no clue where to start searching and would have hoped for an experienced user to give me a hint which (probably) 
org variable could let that asterisk disappear.

I find it quite difficult to find out the one culprit leading to such an effect.
I know about bisecting the .emacs init file but what about the configuartion 
variables?
Ho would you "bisect" that one?

Thank you.
Regards, Rainer




Hi again,

I just included the (custom-set-variables ..) and ((custom-set-faces ..)
forms from my custom.el file into my mini-init.el and did not find the reason 
there so will need to bisect my init files.

Thank you.
Regards, Rainer

[O] Demoting in plain list displays asterisk as space

2018-06-25 Thread Rainer Stengele

Hi all,

Having this item list:

- 1
- 2

with cursor in the "-2" row demoteing the item with org-shiftmetaright results 
in

- 1
2

where the expected "  * 2" is displayed as "2".
describe-char with cursor at the expected asterisk position reveals that "*" is 
displayed as space:

-
position: 7 of 10 (60%), column: 2
character: * (displayed as *) (codepoint 42, #o52, #x2a)
preferred charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV))
code point in charset: 0x2A
   script: latin
   syntax: _which means: symbol
 category: .:Base, a:ASCII, l:Latin, r:Roman
 to input: type "C-x 8 RET 2a" or "C-x 8 RET ASTERISK"
  buffer code: #x2A
file code: #x2A (encoded by coding system utf-8-dos)
  display: composed to form "*" (see below)

Composed by the rule:
(? )
The component character(s) are displayed by these fonts (glyph codes):
  : uniscribe:-outline-DejaVu Sans 
Mono-normal-normal-normal-mono-12-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1 (#x03)
See the variable ‘reference-point-alist’ for the meaning of the rule.

Character code properties: customize what to show
  name: ASTERISK
  general-category: Po (Punctuation, Other)
  decomposition: (42) ('*')

There are text properties here:
  composition  [Show]
  fontifiedt
  keymap   [Show]
  line-prefix  ""
  mouse-face   highlight
  wrap-prefix  [Show]
-

Demoting once more results in:
- 1

+

I cannot seem to find the reason why the "*" is displayed as empty char (space).
I already found out that there are no overlays at that point.
Does anybody have a hint?

Thank you.
Regards, Rainer
