Re: [Orgmode] PROPERTIES before the first headline

[Stephan Schmitt]

Hi Christian,

you forgot the colon after PROPERTY,
i.e. the following line at the beginning
of the buffer does work:

#+PROPERTY: myprop don't ask

(don't forget to refresh the buffer
setup by typing C-c C-c with the cursor
in that line).

Then the call

(org-entry-get (point) "myprop" t)

returns "don't ask".  Note the third
argument (t), which allows inheritance.

Hth,
        Stephan
