Hi,
I have a headline like this:
* Gradebook
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: gradebook
:END:
some content etc etc etc.
I would like to be able to replace the contents of that headline
automatically, but retain the properties. Howeve,r if for some reason the
properites drawer is there I don't want to accidentally search to the NEXT
headline and replace ITS content! -- so I don't want to just
re-search-forward ":END:". I tried this:
(org-open-link-from-string "[[#gradebook]]")
(kill-region (org-element-property :contents-begin (org-element-at-point))
(org-element-property :contents-end (org-element-at-point)))
But "contents-begin" of course starts at the beginning of the property
drawer. I thought "org-element-contents" might help me but it doesn't.
Any suggestions? Thank you!
matt
