Johan, thanks a lot for such a great piece of software. I didn't
expect to have this feature implemented so fast!
I'm very new to this community, but now I'm sure it was a great idea
to invest some time learning Emacs and Org-mode!
The next step will be to learn some Emacs Lisp. But this is tougher, though.
Thank you,
Pere
