[Orgmode] Broken plain list check boxes?
Hi Carsten Just updated to 6.20e. Before, on 6.18c, if I had a plain list like this: * Test - [ ] A - [ ] B - [ ] C With the cursor on the test line, typing `c-c c-x c-b' would check all the boxes, and repeating would uncheck them. Now it doesn't seem to toggle, only check. I hope this isn't a permanent change, or that there's another way to turn them all off because I use lists of check boxes 20 or 30 items long to mark off the little bits pieces I like to get done every day. It'd be a bit tedious to have to manually set them all unchecked at the beginning of each day, even with a macro. -- Chris Randle Windows XP Pro SP3 - GNU Emacs 22.1.1 - Org-mode 6.20e ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Ooops, I forgot about this part of the functionality during a recent revamp of this command. Fixed now.

I wrote that to handle this kind of thing. Make sure org-checklist.el is in your load path, and add (require 'org-checklist) to your .emacs. You can then set up your daily task like so: ,[ test.org ] | * TODO test | SCHEDULED: 2009-01-29 Thu + 1d | :PROPERTIES: | :RESET_CHECKBOXES: t | :END: | - [ ] Task 1 | - [ ] Task 2 | - [ ] Task 3 ` and when you mark it done all the checkboxes will be cleared.
