Hello everybody,

I'm trying to get  orderd lists in org-mode with other values than 1. 2. ...

I do not succeed to get lists like:

i.  blablabla ...
ii. blablabla
iii. blabla..

or

a.  "sentence"
b.  another sentence..

Could you help me please?

Best wishes,

Jo.

Not possible in org AFAIK. It might be possible
to get them in the exported PDF file by
playing LaTeX games, but I'm not sure.

Sorry, that variable is obsolete (although it should still work for
now).  I should have pointed you to the modern version instead:

org-list-allow-alphabetical


Note the caveat in the doc:

,----
| This variable needs to be set before org.el is loaded.  If you
| need to make a change while Emacs is running, use the customize
| interface or run the following code after updating it:
| 
|   (when (featurep 'org-element) (load "org-element" t t))
`----

I tried it and it works:

  a. foo - press M-RET
  b. bar

Do not apologize, I have noticed that the variable was obsolete and I have
tried to customize the new variable. I have even written the code
(when (featurep 'org-element) (load "org-element" t t))  in my init.el
(which is too big and really a mess), and it doe not work either...

Do not waste more time than me on this small problem which certainly comes
from my init.el...

Best regards,

Jo.

I went the customize route.
