Then, in each language mode, one simply calls the > appropriate function. That is the thought I assume each of us has. There are many modes, various macros, functions. Many modes do not have its outline structure. Emacs Lisp mode does not have "outline" defined, we can just virtualize it and think how to create outline. Its structure would greatly depend of the style, and comments definition, for example to start writing (defun on the beginning of the line. Each user can have different comment definition. Modes which could be used with outline-minor-mode are especially those with lightweight markup languages and some modes use outline-minor-mode anyway, so for these it could be done: adoc-mode and asciidoctor-mode t2t-mode for txt2tags markdown-mode latex-mode and similar TeX macros, like context-mode I don't know for plain TeX-plain-tex-mode for example as \beginsection is just one so far I know. TeX-plain-tex-mode is definitely usable for reports that don't require elaborate structures. It is way easier to create report with TeX-plain-tex-mode Hello there \beginsection Here I am \bye Whoever now finds good outline-heading-alist post it here, please. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns Sign an open letter in support of Richard M.
