[O] Parsing org-mode files

[Steffen Heilmann]

Dear list members,

I would like to automatically parse the org-mode files within emacs and was 
wondering if somebody already had done something similar. My idea is to create 
objects (for example, one object for every **-entry, with attributes that cover 
the tags, and also one attribute that covers the body of the entry). In that 
way I would like to add things like comparing two org-mode files on a 
structural basis, and also add some further intelligence. Before I start 
writing something like this from scratch, I was wondering if anybody had done 
something similar or if perhaps hooks already exist within org-mode that I 
could use.


Best regards,

Steffen
