Hi Angel,
I'm not sure what it is you are trying to accomplish. A link to the
example you are following would have been helpful.
Maybe you mean checkbox lists?
- [ ] a new house
- [ ] a new computer
+ [ ] a new keyboard
+ [ ] a new mouse
- [ ] a new life
then C-c C-c toggles the checkbox on and off.

Well, you are not following the example exactly (App. A.5.2 of the Org
manual): you are trying to extend it to lists and I'm not sure that you
can do that. So let me go back to the example in the manual and explain
the rationale:
The idea is that specifying tables in Org is easy, but specifying tables
in LaTeX is harder. It would be convenient if you could use Org mode
syntax for tables *in your LaTeX file* and have the LaTeX table
generated automatically from that. That's what radio tables do for you:
in your LaTeX file, you include the table in Org syntax *as a comment* and
then you use orgtbl facilities to automatically generate your LaTeX
table.
So here's my LaTeX file with the example table:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
Here's a table of stuff:
% BEGIN RECEIVE ORGTBL to-buy
% END RECEIVE ORGTBL to-buy
\begin{comment}
The Org table is inside a LaTeX comment.
#+ORGTBL: SEND to-buy orgtbl-to-latex
| foo | bar |
|-----+-----|
| 1 | 2 |
| 3 | 4 |
\end{comment}
\end{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
When you edit this file, the major mode of the buffer is going to be
LaTeX-mode, not Org-mode. This is where orgtbl-mode comes in: it's a
minor mode, so you can enable it in your LaTeX-mode buffer:
M-x orgtbl-mode <RET>
and then you have the orgtbl facilities available in the buffer where
you are editing your LaTeX file. Now put your cursor somewhere in the
Org table and say C-c C-c - presto, change-o, you get this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
Here's a table of stuff:
% BEGIN RECEIVE ORGTBL to-buy
\begin{tabular}{rr}
foo & bar \\
\hline
1 & 2 \\
3 & 4 \\
\end{tabular}
% END RECEIVE ORGTBL to-buy
\begin{comment}
The Org table is inside a LaTeX comment.
#+ORGTBL: SEND to-buy orgtbl-to-latex
| foo | bar |
|-----+-----|
| 1 | 2 |
| 3 | 4 |
\end{comment}
\end{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Process this with LaTeX and you get a nicely typeset table, without
having to worry much about the finicky LaTeX syntax. Plus, if you
need to change the table, you change the Org table in the comment,
press C-c C-c again and the change is propagated automatically to the
LaTeX table.
In addition, if you enable orgtbl-mode before you even start, then you
have all the nice shortcuts for *editing* the Org table in the first
place. In fact, it's handy to have orgtbl-mode *always* enabled when you
edit LaTeX files. You can do that by using the appropriate hook. For
example, if you use AucTeX, add the following line to your .emacs (after
the place where AucTeX is initialized, so that it has a chance to define
the hook):
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'orgtbl-mode)
AFAIK, you *cannot* do something similar with lists (which is what
you seem to have tried with your modifications to the example), but lists
are much easier to deal with directly in LaTeX.
Hope this makes things clearer,
Nick

Try this:
-----
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
% BEGIN RECEIVE ORGLST tobuy
% END RECEIVE ORGLST tobuy
\begin{comment}
#+ORGLST: SEND tobuy org-list-to-latex
- a new house
- a new computer
+ a new keyboard
+ a new mouse
- a new life
\end{comment}
\end{document}
-----
and M-x org-list-send-list anywhere on the list. It works here.

I stand corrected: as Nicolas Goaziou points out elsewhere in this
thread, you *can* do that with lists - afaict, the only thing missing is
the handy C-c C-c keybinding - or am I wrong about this too?
Thanks,

You're right. There is no keybinding for that. Though, as a little
relief, with proper completion, M-x olsl TAB RET is enough.

I expect Carsten will have incorporated it in orgtbl-ctrl-c-ctrl-c by this
time tomorrow :-) Seriously, I don't mind the typing: I just won't
remember the name of the function, but that's my problem, not yours ;-)
As an aside, I get different lists radioed, depending on where point
is when I call the function: if I'm in the second-level list, only
that is radioed; if I'm somewhere in the first level, the whole list
is radioed. Bug or feature? Or maybe pilot error?
Thanks,
Nick

BTW, Angel was reading appending A.5.4 (not A.5.2 as I mistakenly
assumed) and afaict, he is right: first of all, there is a typo in the
appendix (ORGLIST vs ORGLST); second, the name of the list ("to-buy")
includes a dash, but the regexp in org-list-send-list does not match it:
it works better if the dash is replaced by an underscore in the example,
but maybe the regexp should be made more general.
But the appendix also claims that C-c C-c on the first element of the
list *should* work, and I don't think it does - but it's not clear to me
what minor mode(s) should be in operation in order for this to work.
What binding should I expect for C-C C-c at that poing?
Thanks,
Nick

I've already corrected this and the problem of nested lists you're
talking about in my branch redefining lists.
The regexp was indeed too specific: it is now on par with the one used
in ORGTBL. I also redefined org-list-radio-list-templates as they
were inserting a table and not a list.
About the binding, C-c C-c is not a good choice (do I want to send
list or toggle check-box?). Anyway it should belong to orgstruct-mode,
IMO.

Corrected it where? In you branch where you are working on the list
code?

Can you make a patch for just this prblem and submit it? I'd like
to fix this before the release.

Yes, this is a bit of a problem here. We could send the
list with C-c C-c anyway, of cause, would not hurt.
This would be parallel to tables where C-c C-c aligns the table
and sends it.
Thanks

I reverted them before applying your patch, assuming that you'd have

Hi everyone,
thanks to all who contributed to this thread.
Sending lists should now work as advertised, including
using C-c C-c to send the list.
