I use org-mode for planning projects and tasks, etc. Say I am reading a book and I want to track my progress chapter by chapter. I want to create a list of repetitive elements with an incremented number like:
- [ ] chapter 1
- [ ] chapter 2
- [ ] chapter 3
...
Now, instead of typing out the incremented numbers each time, is there a way to just type the first entry, like - [ ] chapter 1
and then have org-mode complete n
additional entries. So if a book has 10 chapters, then orgmode would increment the entry 10 times?
So I was just wondering if there is a way to do this in orgmode or a different package to use, etc? Note that I use Spacemacs.

). But it's easy enough to write a function that does that and it doesn't have to know anything about org: just insert the text in a counted loop. – NickD May 29 '19 at 22:54
