Re: [O] Inserted Heading Starts on Prior Heading's Fold Mark

[Daniel E . Doherty]

John,

You nailed it.  I had that variable set in my custom file to

'(org-blank-before-new-entry (quote ((heading) (plain-list-item . auto))))

which is not a proper alist.  When I chaned it back to 

'(org-blank-before-new-entry (quote ((heading . auto) (plain-list-item . 
auto))))

the bad behavior went away.

Thanks a ton for taking a look at this, John.  Back to loving org-mode!
