Updating the [/] and [%]

Updating the [/] and [%]

[Jari Aalto]

How do I force update of the [/] and [%] markers. Many times they
don't follow item are edited, added, copied manually.

For a checkbox list just C-c C-c on any checkbox to change the state
twice.

For TODO subtasks change the todo keyword with shift-left and
shift-right

Well, C-u C-c # is supposed to do it, but I just found a bug in 6.13a
that's in Gentoo.

Given the file
=================
- [/] f
  - [ ] d
  - [ ] v
  - [X] g
=================

pressing C-u C-c # displays the message "Checkbox satistics updated in
entire file (0 places)" but does nothing, as it says.

Given the file
===================
* foo
- [/] f
  - [ ] d
  - [ ] v
  - [X] g
===================

pressing C-u C-c # updates the [/] token correctly.  Can someone try
this in on something more recent?

I'm not really surprised by this: headlines are really important in  
org-mode, but I tried it anyway.
Org-mode version 6.15a

"GNU Emacs 22.3.2 (i386-apple-darwin9.5.0, Carbon Version 1.6.0)
  of 2008-09-21 on plume.sr.unh.edu - Aquamacs Distribution 1.5"

On Mac OS X.5

The surprising this was that I got the message "Checkbox statistics  
updated in entire file (0 places) in *both* tests below!

I normally use C-c C-c twice if all I need to do is update a checkbox  
after some kind of manual edit, so I'd never noticed this.
