Example
Org provides a full markup language which helps structuring the document, and is reflected as accurately as possible when exporting to other formats (like HTML or LaTeX).
Structure
Document title
#+TITLE: This is the title of the document
Sectioning
* First level
** Second level
Lists
Ordered list (items can also be numbered like '1)', with a perenthesis):
1. foo
2. bar
3. baz
Unordered list (items can also start with '+' or '*'):
- foo
- bar
- baz
Description
- lorem ipsum :: this is example text
- foo bar :: these are placeholder words
Checkboxes
Every item in a plain list can be made into a checkbox by starting it with the string ‘[ ]’.
* TODO [2/4] (or [50%])
- [-] call people [1/3]
- [ ] Peter
- [X] Sarah
- [ ] Sam
- [X] order food
- [ ] think about what music to play
- [X] talk to the neighbors
- C-c C-c org-toggle-checkbox
- C-c C-x C-b org-toggle-checkbox
- M-S- org-insert-todo-heading
- C-c C-x o org-toggle-ordered-property
- C-c # org-update-statistics-cookies
Emphasis and monospace
You can make words *bold*, /italic/, _underlined_, =verbatim=
and ~code~, and, if you must, ‘+strike-through+’.
Text in the code and verbatim string is not processed for Org mode specific syntax, it is exported verbatim.
