Re: [O] Changing [X] by something else

[Jon Miller]

I like the idea... Here is another alternative:
 (font-lock-add-keywords
  'org-mode `(("\\[X\\]"
               (0 (progn (compose-region (match-beginning 0) (match-end 0)
                                         "☑")
                         nil)))
              ("\\[ \\]"
               (0 (progn (compose-region (match-beginning 0) (match-end 0)
                                         "☐")
                         nil)))))
