Hi.
I recently started using inlinetasks to be able to tag and comment long
texts (a kind of simple qualitative data analysis).
I thought that I would be able to use both tasks with and without an
"END" line interchangeably:
*************** inlinetask without end
some text
*************** inlinetask with end
text inside inlinetask
*************** END
The problem (not so surprising really) is that the parser finds the
"END" of the second inlinetask and makes them nested in an export.
I thought this could be solved with using different numbers of stars for
tasks with and without END, judging from these lines in org-inlinetask.el:
;; If you need to have a time planning line (DEADLINE etc), drawers,
;; for example LOGBOOK of PROPERTIES, or even normal text as part of
;; the inline task, you must add an "END" headline with the same
;; number of stars.
But the search for "END" in the parser is actually star-insensitive so
this didn't solve my problem either.
I suggest requiring the "END"-line to contain as many stars as it's
beginning line by doing something like this (there is certainly a
cleaner way doing it) to org-element-inlinetask-parser:
@@ -972,7 +972,9 @@
plist))))
(task-end (save-excursion
(end-of-line)
- (and (re-search-forward "^\\*+ END" limit t)
+ (and (re-search-forward
+ (concat "^" (mapconcat 'identity (make-list (nth 1
components) "\\*") "") " END")
+ limit t)
(match-beginning 0))))
(contents-begin (progn (forward-line)
(and task-end (< (point) task-end) (point))))
But perhaps this is too unstable? (Although it could be expected from
the comments above).
Cheers,
