I realized that the default binding `C-c *` works only on the current line, not the whole selection (and the same applies to the opposite `C-c -`).
It would be great to have those commands work over a region too.
But in the meanwhile, you can do either of the below:
- Simply select the region and use `query-replace-regexp`.
- Use a combination of keyboard macros and `C-c *`.
- Use `multiple-cursors`.
- Any other multiple editing method you might prefer.

Hi Nickwell yes i guess :) . but would be cool if this small function was org aware and thus the asteriks (org header) level would be auto set to the current sub level.thxzOn Tue, Sep 29, 2015 at 6:30 AM, Nick Dokos <ndokos@gmail.com> wrote:Xebar Saram <zeltakc@gmail.com> writes:

Maybe I'm missing something, but can't you just add asterisks in front
of each line? Maybe with a keyboard macro? Or even a sed script?
There's a reason that org files are plain text.
