(defcustom org-remember-templates nil
"Templates for the creation of remember buffers.
When nil, just let remember make the buffer.
When non-nil, this is a list of 5-element lists. In each entry, the first
element is the name of the template, which should be a single short word.
The second element is a character, a unique key to select this template.
2008-04-24 04:29:47 -04:00
The third element is the template.
The fourth element is optional and can specify a destination file for
remember items created with this template. The default file is given
by `org-default-notes-file'. If the file name is not an absolute path,
it will be interpreted relative to `org-directory'.
An optional fifth element can specify the headline in that file that should
be offered first when the user is asked to file the entry. The default
headline is given in the variable `org-remember-default-headline'. When
this element is `top' or `bottom', the note will be placed as a level-1
entry at the beginning or end of the file, respectively.
An optional sixth element specifies the contexts in which the template
will be offered to the user. This element can be a list of major modes
or a function, and the template will only be offered if `org-remember'
is called from a mode in the list, or if the function returns t.
Templates that specify t or nil for the context will be always be added
to the list of selectable templates.
The template specifies the structure of the remember buffer. It should have
a first line starting with a star, to act as the org-mode headline.
Furthermore, the following %-escapes will be replaced with content:
%^{prompt} Prompt the user for a string and replace this sequence with it.
A default value and a completion table ca be specified like this:
%^{prompt|default|completion2|completion3|...}
%t time stamp, date only
%T time stamp with date and time
%u, %U like the above, but inactive time stamps
%^t like %t, but prompt for date. Similarly %^T, %^u, %^U.
You may define a prompt like %^{Please specify birthday
%n user name (taken from `user-full-name')
%a annotation, normally the link created with org-store-link
%i initial content, the region active. If %i is indented,
the entire inserted text will be indented as well.
%c current kill ring head
%x content of the X clipboard
%^C Interactive selection of which kill or clip to use
%^L Like %^C, but insert as link
2008-10-01 06:43:55 -04:00
%k title of currently clocked task
%K link to currently clocked task
%^g prompt for tags, with completion on tags in target file
%^G prompt for tags, with completion all tags in all agenda files
%^{prop}p Prompt the user for a value for property `prop'
%:keyword specific information for certain link types, see below
%[pathname] insert the contents of the file given by `pathname'
%(sexp) evaluate elisp `(sexp)' and replace with the result
%! Store this note immediately after filling the template
%& Visit note immediately after storing it
%? After completing the template, position cursor here.
Apart from these general escapes, you can access information specific to the
link type that is created. For example, calling `remember' in emails or gnus
will record the author and the subject of the message, which you can access
with %:author and %:subject, respectively. Here is a complete list of what
is recorded for each link type.
Link type | Available information
-------------------+------------------------------------------------------
bbdb | %:type %:name %:company
vm, wl, mh, rmail | %:type %:subject %:message-id
| %:from %:fromname %:fromaddress

When the template has specified a file and a headline, the entry is filed

If no defaults have been defined, or if the current prefix argument
is 1 (so you must use `C-1 C-c C-c' to exit remember), an interactive
process is used to select the target location.
When the prefix is 0 (i.e. when remember is exited with `C-0 C-c C-c'),

When the prefix is 2 (i.e. when remember is exited with `C-2 C-c C-c'),

the entry is filed as a subentry of the entry where the clock is

moves point to the new location of the note, so that editing can be

Before storing the note, the function ensures that the text has an
org-mode-style headline, i.e. a first line that starts with
a \"*\". If not, a headline is constructed from the current date and
some additional data.
If the variable `org-adapt-indentation' is non-nil, the entire text is
also indented so that it starts in the same column as the headline
