Hey, folks.

I’ve been digging around to see if there’s a package for this but the closest I’ve found is expand-region and that’s not quite it…

Take the indent level and block at the line where the point currently sits and set the mark region to the end of the current block + indent level. I hope that explanation is clear.

This seems very much in the wheelhouse of Emacs and I’m guessing it exists – maybe even in core as opposed to a package – and I’m just not looking in the right place.

thx

    In org mode, you can select the entire heading when point is somewhere in the middle with:

    C-c p to move to the headline

    M-h to mark the “paragraph”, which in org marks the entire entry.

    Likely not quite what you want, but it seems worth mentioning.

      Thanks. In this case I’m not only working with Org Mode but I can at least dive into that function and see how it is accomplishing the task for Org.
