Subject: M-x fill-region equivalent for lists?
Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2013 20:49:01 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+M2ft-4XAXASs21=zsJ1_1F32r6-avzwoufQmK79yHMcmRJCQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Greetings,


When editing lists after deleting words (shortening lines) and/or
concatenating one line with the one that follows (to remedy a
shortened line), I end up with an "unfilled" list item. Is there an
Org equivalent to `M-x fill-region` on paragraphs to tidy up the Org
document list entries?

In other words, I'd like to cause the item to look equivalent to
typing it all at once and having the text flowed onto the next line
when I hit my setting for the fill width:

(setq-default fill-column 90)

Example:

- here's some
  text that should all be one bullet and not be on separate lines. I
deleted the stuff on the
  line above and now want all three of these lines to reflow nicely in
the same bullet. Is this
  possible?

If I put that all one one line, go to the end and press SPACE, I get
this (probably won't reflow right with the limits of email widths...):

- here's some text that should all be one bullet and not be on
separate lines. I deleted
  the stuff on the line above and now want all three of these lines to
reflow nicely in
  the same bullet. Is this possible?



Thanks,
John
