#+BEGIN_... blocks in lists

#+BEGIN_... blocks in lists

[Peter Danenberg]

I'd like to be able to do something like the following:

  - item 1
    - item 1.1
      #+BEGIN_SRC lang
      code
      #+END_SRC
    - item 1.2
    ...

but the source blocks are interpreted as text despite section 2.7 of
the manual, which says:

  Since indentation is what governs the structure of these lists, many
  structural constructs like #+BEGIN_... blocks can be indented to
  signal that they should be part of a list item.

I'm therefore forced to do something like the following:

  - item 1
    - item 1.1
  #+BEGIN_SRC lang
  code
  #+END_SRC
  - item 1
  ...

which effectively terminates the list in the middle.

Is it possible to embed #+BEGIN_... blocks in a list?

Hi Peter,

looks like you are reading the manual of a recent version
of Org-mode, while using an older version.  What does

   M-x org-version

say?

Thanks, Carsten; that occurred to me, too. It's too bad I didn't put
it to the empirical test:

  Org-mode version 6.21b
