I think the default moved slowly to lower case. The docs have stayed as-is. Guessing by the mailing lists, this does confuse people from time to time. > Second question: I couldn't find any configuration variable or function to > change the default behaviour. Is there a way to do so? See the (customizable) variable `org-structure-template-alist'. Cheers -- t signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Because it is ugly for the majority of expressed opinion, and fontification is a more appropriate way to distinguish between contents and syntax. The reason why the manual still uses uppercase is explained at (info "(org) Conventions"). > Second question: I couldn't find any configuration variable or > function to change the default behaviour. Is there a way to do so? You can customize `org-structure-template-alist'. I don't remember if that's possible in Org 9.1.9, tho. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
