Re: [O] Heading vs Headline
Hi Sébastien, Sebastien Vauban sva-news-D0wtAvR13HarG/idocf...@public.gmane.org writes: I have the impression that both terms (heading and headline) are synonyms. Though, is this true, or is there some subtle nuance? I tend to use headline when I want to suggest it can fold, and heading when I want to refer to the contents of the headline. This is all a bit intuitive, but I don't think this is a problem. -- Bastien

Best regards, Seb I've had the same confusion before, and have ended up trying to stick to heading. Having worked in journalism, headline has very definite associations for me. Heading is seen in other equivalent contexts, like Latex, but so is header. Header stomps on the toes of email/HTML/HTTP, though, so I come back to heading... Two cents, Eric

Function names in org.el tend to use heading. #+begin_src sh grep defun org.el | grep heading | wc -l #+end_src #+RESULTS: : 28 #+begin_src sh grep defun org.el | grep headline | wc -l #+end_src #+RESULTS: : 3 I have the impression that both terms (heading and headline) are synonyms. Though, is this true, or is there some subtle nuance? I think Org uses them interchangeably. One of the three functions above that use headline is `org-find-exact-headline-in-buffer', and the function immediately below it is `org-find-exact-heading-in-directory'. -- Kyle
