Use the arrow keys to navigate to the top level heading, hit TAB to expand the next level in that sub-tree, use the arrow keys again, hit TAB on the second level heading, and recurse... I find this quite intuitive and easy to use. of course, this assumes you know the hierarchy (i.e. under which higher level headings your particular destination is to be found). if you don't know the hierarchy, I would suggest doing an expansion of the whole file into the headings view (I can't remember what it is called but C-u TAB cycles through the different views) and search using C-s instead... remembering that you always have the full power of emacs at hand which is partly what makes org so powerful! For example, you can also use M-x occur RET to search for particular strings in the whole file. --Multipart_Thu_Apr_29_15:56:45_2010-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII -- Eric S Fraga GnuPG: 8F5C 279D 3907 E14A 5C29 570D C891 93D8 FFFC F67D --Multipart_Thu_Apr_29_15:56:45_2010-1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
