hi, i have a file "Collect.org" in which i collect items that need processing. Every morning I go through the file, decide what needs to be done with each item, and refile it. The outcomes are pretty stereotyped, so for instance, if it's a project idea, I tag it with :project:, give it the status TODO, and refile it in Projets.org; if it's a simple task, I also give it the status TODO, but refile it in gtd.org; and if it's a reminder about something I'm waiting on from someone else, I give it the status WAITING, and also refile it in gtd.org.
I'd like to write a function that automates these tasks for me. The idea is to have a keybinding (though my key map seems really full!) that works a little bit like the rmemember template keybinding -- one function, but with options that infoke slightly different outcomes. so, say, C-c f p = refile as a project C-c f a = refile as an action C-c f w = refile as 'waiting' My elisp is *terrible* though and I was hoping for some help. I can see that for each option I want to perform: (org-todo "STATE") and then something like (org-refile) -- except that I want to pre-specify a refiling location. Is this something I can do? I figure it must be possible since org-remember does it, but my quick reading of that code didn't help me much. also, it seems to me I need something like an array, in which the final character in the keybinding determines values for the TODO state, the refiling location, and in some cases a tag (i'm not sure what function to call to add a tag to a heading -- it looks like org-set-tags doesn't take any arguments, so I guess that won't work...). Can someone give me some pasic advice on building a function like that? I appreciate all the help!
