Hi,
Read this to avoid losing your work.
Standard kill-line deletes all text from the point to the end of the
_visible_ line. It happened to me a few times that I pressed C-k to
delete a few final words of a headline, but instead the whole
(invisible) subtree was deleted. This kind of mistake is costly
because it may go unnoticed for weeks, when you start wondering what
happened to a sizeable part of your org file and have to go through
rather old backups. Below is what I believe to be a safer version of
kill-line: it deletes text only to the end of the real line, unless
used at the beginning of the line, in which case it behaves as the
standard kill-line. I haven't tested much yet, but it seems to be
working ok.
(defun kill-line-safe ()
(interactive)
(if (bolp)
(kill-line)
(kill-region (point) (point-at-eol))))
(define-key global-map "\C-k" 'kill-line-safe)
Piotr
