org-mode: Remove CLOSED line when cycling

[Florian Lindner]

Hello,

I use the org-mode from emacs 23.4-2 (ArchLinux) with settings

(setq org-log-done t)
(setq org-startup-indented t)

When cycling through TODO/DONE/- using C-c C-t org-mode inserts the
CLOSED timestamp accordingly. Org-mode removes the CLOSED timestamp
when cycling to the - state but fails to remove the now empty line.
This produces a growing whitespace between the heading and the
body/children.

Is this considered a bug? Can I change that behavior so that it remove
the empty line?

Thanks,

Florian

For what it's worth, the git version of org, with those settings,
doesn't leave an extra line. If you're willing to consider running the
development version of org you'll get that and a whole bunch of other
new features. If not, you might look at the function
`org-add-planning-info' as it exists in the git codebase, and see how it
differs from yours (particularly when the symbol 'closed is passed in as
the third argument).

Also, there's a orgmode mailing list!

Good luck,
Eric
