Most of the time, org-mode's keybindings M-return to create a heading, and TAB to cycle visibility, are quite useful.
But sometimes when brainstorming, it would be useful to use org-mode to create a traditional hierarchical bulleted list (of course using stars instead of bullets), and using the traditional keybindings used by outlining apps like Workflowy, Evernote, Taskpaper, etc:
- return creates the next item in the bulleted list
- tab demotes the item in the hierarchy
- S-tab promotes the item in the hierarchy
In org terms, this would mean:
- return binds to M-return
- tab binds to M-right
- S-tab binds to M-left
Is there some kind of org minor mode that will allow me to (temporarily) run org like it's a traditional outlining app?
I don't believe there is any existing minor mode that will do the trick, however one such as this should work:
