With the trunk branch of outshine.el (and outshine and navi-mode properly installed, and outline-minor-mode activated) you can just do: ,----[ C-h f outshine-latex-insert-headers-in-buffer RET ] | outshine-latex-insert-headers-in-buffer is an interactive Lisp | function in `outshine.el'. | | (outshine-latex-insert-headers-in-buffer &optional BUF-OR-NAME | NO-PREAMBLE-P) | | Insert outshine-headers for all sections in latex-mode buffer. | Use current-buffer, unless BUF-OR-NAME is given. Add a 1st-level | preamble header unless NO-PREAMBLE-P is non-nil. `---- to automatically insert meaningful outshine headers for all latex sections in current buffer, call navi-mode and type e.g. '3' or '4' (show headers up to level 3 or 4), and then kill and yank the subtrees with 'k' and 'y'. -- cheers, Thorsten
