All headlines are at the top level, so there areno duplicates at different levels from each other - but there *are* some where the headline matches but the contents don't match. Is there an efficient way to delete all-but-one of theexactly duplicate subtrees, but avoid deleting any whose contentsare different? (When the large number of exact duplicates aregone, it will be easy for me to resolve the partial matches one byone.)Maybe this will be useful to you. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2017-12/msg00626.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2018-01/msg00000.html You will have to modify the code since IIRC the linked code only matches by heading and not body.
Thank you - I'm clumsy at best with modifying code, but I'll see what I can do with it.
