Interesting question. When I don't write carelessly I try to write "Org
Mode", but it's more out of habit. The wikipedia entry says "Org-mode".
The Google entry for orgmode.org says "Org mode", however the title of
the website says "Org Mode".

I imagine this disparity is also shared by other famous Emacs modes,
where you see them written in various ways...

Best regards,

Juan Manuel

If we look into doc/Documentation_Standards.org:

    - Prefer "Org mode" to "Org-mode" or "org-mode".  This is simply
      because it reflects an existing convention in [[info:emacs:Top][The Emacs Manual]] which
      consistently documents mode names in this form - "Text mode",
      "Outline mode", "Mail mode", etc.

It is _the_ convention.

Another question is whether we actually follow it everywhere...
