> Does this do what you want? The first URL does, or almost. Clocking into a :LOGBOOK: drawer is what I want. Or, at least: it's what I want for long running tasks with a lot of clocking in and out. I am not sure I want this behaviour across all clockings and all org files...? After testing I have found out that: - default behaviour on an emacs23 org-mode is to clock into a :LOGBOOK: drawer if it exists - I can set the org-clock-into-drawer variable to t, and then it will create a :LOGBOOK: drawer when clocking in, and I can move the rest of the timestamps into i - My emacs23 org-mode doesn't have the CLOCK_INTO_DRAWER property, and setting the LOG_INTO_DRAWER property on a subtree to t and always (the values I tried) didn't have any effect on clocking If there had been a quick way to add a :LOGBOOK: drawer to a TODO item, I would have just used the current behaviour and inserted :LOGBOOK: drawers at need. Hm... I think the simplest way is to set org-clock-into-drawer to t in .emacs, and see how that behaviour suits me. Thanks! - Steinar
