You probably have Emacs 21 under Linux and Emacs 22 under Windows.
This is a difference in the implementation of `outline-hide-sublevels'
between these versions, and Org-mode simply calls this function.
Thanks Carsten, you're right on. I really like the emacs21 behavior a lot more than that of emacs 22.
I believe you could take the Emacs 21 definition of this function and
overwrite the Emacs 22 one by placing the definition into
outline-mode-hook, but I have not tested this.
I found a hide-sublevels in
outline.el but never found any outline-hide-sublevels, so I assume they're they same.
(defun hide-sublevels (levels)
"Hide everything but the top LEVELS levels of headers, in whole buffer."
(interactive "p")
(if (< levels 1)
(error "Must keep at least one level of headers"))
(setq levels (1- levels))
(let (outline-view-change-hook)
(save-excursion
(goto-char (point-min))
;; Keep advancing to the next top-level heading.
(while (or (and (bobp) (outline-on-heading-p))
(outline-next-heading))
(let ((end (save-excursion (outline-end-of-subtree) (point))))
;; Hide everything under that.
(outline-flag-region (point) end t)
;; Show the first LEVELS levels under that.
(if (> levels 0)
(show-children levels))
;; Move to the next, since we already found it.
(goto-char end)))))
(run-hooks 'outline-view-change-hook))
(add-hook 'outline-mode-hook 'hide-sublevels)
I gave this a try but it didn't work automatically, and I don't know where to go from here.
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-number-of-arguments #[(levels) [A whole bunch of special characters here]
[levels outline-view-change-hook beg end 1 error "Must keep at least one level of headers" nil outline-on-heading-p t outline-next-heading outline-flag-region outline-map-region #[nil " [outline-level levels outline-show-heading] 2] run-hooks] 4 ("c:/Program Files/Emacs/emacs/lisp/outline.elc" . 28111) (list (cond (current-prefix-arg (prefix-numeric-value current-prefix-arg)) ((save-excursion (beginning-of-line) (looking-at outline-regexp)) (funcall outline-level)) (t 1)))] 0)
Thanks,
Scott
