TAB and Shift-TAB

The {TAB} and {S-TAB} perform different functions depending on the setting of the variable, kotl-mode:tab-flag, as shown in the table below.

| nil                | Demote tree                   | Promote tree             |

Org-style cycling is now the default. In Hyperbole versions earlier than 9.3.0, the default was ‘nil’ for demotion and promotion. You can toggle between using these keys for cycling or demotion/promotion by pressing {C-c [}. Or you can change the default by setting kotl-mode:tab-flag in your Hyperbole use-package configuration. See the following subsections for further details.
