Ok, in this case only to keep in mind for maybe the future of Org: I
was thinking of the following, with "::" aligned manually for eye
candy and "::" still left untouched by C-c and M-q like already with
release_7.8.11-282-gb04f9e3:
- cmd -o DST SRC :: narrow term + narrow descr
- cmd --create-file :: narrow term + multiline descr bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla
- cmd --log-level=err -o DST SRC
:: wide term + narrow descr
- cmd --log-level=wrn -o DST SRC
:: wide term + multiline descr bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla
- cmd --log-level=wrn -o --output-file=DST --input-file=SRC
--input-format=org :: multiline narrow term + narrow descr
- cmd --log-level=wrn -o --output-file=DST --input-file=SRC
--input-format=org --output-format=latex
:: multiline wide term + multiline descr
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
- cmd :: narrow term + narrow descr
It would be a homogeneous Org structure allowing to have many "narrow
term + narrow descr" each consuming only one Org buffer line with the
possibility of "multiline term + multiline descr" etc. with aligned
descr columns while being completely visible. This is not well
possible now in Org AFAIK. One of the workarounds, which I would
probably not prefer when exporting because of inhomogeneous structure:
- cmd -o DST SRC :: narrow term + narrow descr
- cmd --create-file :: narrow term + multiline descr bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla
- cmd --log-level=err -o DST SRC
- wide term + narrow descr
- cmd --log-level=wrn -o DST SRC
- wide term + multiline descr bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
- cmd --log-level=wrn -o --output-file=DST --input-file=SRC
--input-format=org
- multiline narrow term + narrow descr
- cmd --log-level=wrn -o --output-file=DST --input-file=SRC
--input-format=org --output-format=latex
- multiline wide term + multiline descr bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla
- cmd :: narrow term + narrow descr
