KJ,

Thanks.  I had not noticed that little footnote in the Org manual.  This
allows me to read and display the regular expression, so that's

I am a bit concerned about the fate of a naive user who comes to editing
the thing, but how naive can you be if your editing regular expressions,
right?

Regards,

Dan
