Subject: Ignore a Local Variables list
Date: Sat, 21 Dec 2024 10:07:22 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ttawewpx.fsf@breatheoutbreathe.in> (raw)

As described in this Org mailing list thread:

https://yhetil.org/orgmode/dc5901c1-720a-4bec-9611-c62f9cfee45a@gmail.com/T/#t

I'm looking to ignore a Local Variables list (in an Org file).

Current solutions:

Add a form feed character (with C-q C-l) below the Local Variables list.
This works, but the form feed makes the document less portable,
negatively affecting readability in other programs like Thunderbird.
Also, it breaks certain Org workflows, such as exporting to odt.

Another solution is to put an empty Local Variables list *above* the one
I want to ignore.  This solution seems fragile, since Emacs only looks
within the last 3000 characters for a Local Variables list.

Any other suggestions?

Thank you!

Joseph
