I have this TODO:
** TODO Meeting with John Doe
regarding the job interview
some skills they would like
- html
- css
- unix
address: 102 str. Blah foo, CA
phone: 1111111
I would like to somehow make org aware that the list ends after "- unix"
and that what follows are not part of the list, meaning pressing TAB
should not move the cursor under "u" form unix.
Regards,
Cezar
