Org Returns

Org mode can be a sort of odd beast when you’re editing in one of its buffers. That’s because even though it’s plain text it’s also providing a way of structuring text. Grant Rettke takes note of this fact and shows that there are four types of RETURN in Org mode.

For example, if you’re working with a list, sometimes you want to start a new list item. Other times, you want to continue a current list item on the next line but with the correct indentation. There are a couple of other similar actions that you might want to tie to【Return】 as well.

Rettke binds each of the 【Return】 types to a key sequence that ends with 【Return】. If, like me, you do a lot of writing in Org mode, this can be a big time saver. Check out Rettke’s post for the details.
