in the hopes of not wasting 20 minutes trying to make drawers work in the future. remember the following. when using drawers in a file the following are your friends.

#+DRAWERS: FOOBARNAMEWITHOUTUNDERSCORESORPUNC

* first level shiz
** second level shiz

:FOOBARNAMEWITHOUTUNDERSCORESORPUNC:
foo bar baz blurble plotz.
:END:

i’m sure that the rules for drawer naming are well documented somewhere, but i can’t seem to find them. don’t use punctuation in drawer names.

sigh …
