I still don't understand why altering paragraph-start and paragraph-separate doesn't work, but who cares? ;-) One more thing: Do you also know a text-/minor-mode which is the opposite of paragraph-indent-text-mode, i.e. every line NOT starting with an indentation is considered as a new paragraph? This would be useful for text like the following: Topic1: This should be one paragraph. Topic2: This should be one paragraph. Regards, Jörg
