[O] Hrules and Column/Page breaks
Is it possible to extend horizontal ruler to also stand for page *and* column breaks (say) by attaching a header to it. For it to be useful, the page break can have a style attached to it that specifies what manner of pages that this break introduces. (For example, start emitting Frontmatter pages from here on. Start emitting Regular pages from here on.) Would you be interested in formalizing this arrangement? WDYT. Org file below: --8---cut here---start-8--- * Headline There is horizontal line below. #+header: some qualifiers -- There is a horizontal ruler above. --8---cut here---end---8--- gets transformed to this: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (headline (:raw-value Headline :title (Headline) :begin 403 :end 531 :pre-blank 1 :hiddenp nil :contents-begin 415 :contents-end 530 :level 1 :priority nil :tags nil :todo-keyword nil :todo-type nil :scheduled nil :deadline nil :timestamp nil :clock nil :post-blank 1 :footnote-section-p nil :archivedp nil :commentedp nil :quotedp nil :category nil) (section (:begin 415 :end 530 :contents-begin 415 :contents-end 530 :post-blank 0) (paragraph (:begin 415 :end 449 :contents-begin 415 :contents-end 447 :post-blank 1) There is horizontal ruler below.)

Re: [O] [ANN] ASCII back-end for new export engine

This is how headlines are formatted in ODF. #+begin_src nxml text:h text:style-name=Heading_20_1 text:outline-level=1 ... /text:h #+end_src The style name says the paragraph properties of the heading. The outline level (indirectly) specifies the numbering properties. By bumping outline-level to a very high-value it should be possible to have a particular headline to be rendered unnumbered and not enter TOC. As a side note, it looks like we are talking various means of headline behaviour vis a vis numbering 1. numbered and listed 2. unnumbered and listed 3. unnumbered and not listed 4. listified Hope we are able to choose a property name that reflects it's functionality vis-a-vis it's listing behaviour. --
Re: [O] how do scientists use org mode?
Hi Christoph For my scientific work (I'm an Indologist) I use orgmode in three ways: 1. _Project planning and calendar management_ That's just the normal thing. I use the GTD approach, extended by some specialties like the tags :BIGROCK: (most important project to work on this week) and :MIT: (most important thing of the day). 2. _Writing papers_ To me this is one of the most important powers of orgmode: work on papers and have Todos inserted into the text directly. So, if you have referenced a book but you don't have it at hand at the moment, you can do: This is a paraphrase you need a reference for (Smith 2009: ??). TODO Check the page in Smith's book :LIBRARY: I always add files with draft papers to org-agenda-files. Next time I'm at the library and have MobileOrg with me, the Todo shows up and I can check the book. I know of no other wordprocessor or editor which can do this. 3. _Collecting reference material_ Whenever I read a book (since some months I usually read ebooks or pdfs on my tablet), I find passages I need for present or future papers. With the ezReader app (Android) you can mark these passages and send them to MobileOrg. When I come home, the new material has already synced and waits to be tagged and refiled. I use org-files for each paper I'm working on as databases for references. The header is a short description of the content of each reference. Keywords and bibliographic data are put into drawers that can be queried. I have an Emacs macro that automatically transforms the raw entry into the right markup. Welcome to org Sven GMX Christoph 13 christoph...@gmx.net writes: Hi this is my first post here and although I am evaluating org mode with great interest, I am also asking myself in which way other scientists are making use of org mode. It will take a while to get my head around how to accomplish certain things in org mode but for the moment I am intrigued by *why* one would want to approach the problem of organizing one's research with org mode and in which way. Are you putting exclusively your todos in, well, your todo file and perhaps keep project-related things, such as data and progress, notes, ideas etc. somewhere else? Or do you embed your notes and todos within their original context, i.e. is org mode your one-stop solution for data management? Do you maintain a separate file for every major project you are responsible for or involved in or throw everything into one or few humungous files and differentiate using hierarchies and tags? In the past I have hit some road blocks not so much with other softwares but rather concepts such as GTD, which I think is tailored to the needs of people outside science, so I would deeply appreciate your views and experience. If this list is geared towards the proximate aspects of development and less towards philosophy of usage, I apologize Christoph
Re: [O] New iCalendar import script
Dear Simon Thank you very much for publishing this script. I have no time to test it right now, but I will do so in a few days. Sven Simon Thum simon.t...@gmx.de writes: Hi all, I've written an iCalendar import script in ruby (I know, not emacs lisp, but at the least I should let you be aware). I think it's an improvement over the awk script, so you may consider mentioning it in the appropriate places. See https://github.com/simonthum/ical2org It has more complete iCalendar support, in particular repeating dates and Todos. Likely it is easier to adapt to individual requirements. Also, it works under windows and linux - my win32 awk was missing key functionality for the script (mktimestamp, IIRC). I'm not particularly attached to CC-BY or github, so if you think a more appropriate long-term place would be orgmode.org then we'll probably find a way. It's in its early stages, for example I'm quite unsure about the timezone support, so feedback is more than welcome! Cheers, Simon

BIND always works but certain org variables seem to be ignored when set using local file variables. The variables I refer to are often, maybe always (?), related to export functions. My gut feeling is that this has something to do with a copy of the file being made for the export and maybe emacs not getting a chance to set local variables for that copy? Grasping at straws here, mind you ;-) For #+BIND the org manual is probably not quite clear. The Concept Index page says: : * #+BIND:Export options. (line 19) 12.2 Export options says: : #+BIND:lisp-var lisp-val, e.g.: org-export-latex-low-levels itemize : You need to confirm using these, or configure `org-export-allow-BIND' So basically, #+BIND only applies to export, though the manual maybe slightly underemphasizes that fact. Did you try the general emacs syntax for file variables, Eric Schulte mentioned? [1] For me that worked (except that non-safe variables require confirmation in order to avoid text files executing harmful code). The emacs-documentation doesn't mention it, but apparently this works also in shebang'ed files, by moving the single line form (`-*- ... -*-') to the second line.

Sincerely, Venkatesh Choppella IIIT Hyderabad Gachibowli, Hyderabad 500 032 India Hi Venkatesh, I'm a philosopher, so, unlike in your case, there's little chance of my making orgmode itself part of the course material :-) Depending on the course, I make a lot of use of beamer presentations. (Lots in Introduction to Logic course, little or none in seminars.) However, I developed my work-flow before orgmode grew the rich tools it now has for supporting beamer; so orgmode plays no role, here. Were I starting again, I'd likely make my workflow more orgmode focused. The most significant use I make of orgmode that seems peculiar to teaching is to use org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift to create a headline for each class session. Each has a subheading where I jot whatever reminders I need of what to say in class that won't be triggered for me by the beamer presentation (if I am employing one for that class). I keep this visible on a netbook beside the podium with the computer driving the digital projector. Each class's heading also has a subheading where, in the minutes immediately after class, I record a post-mortem of the class. This includes things such as what actually did get covered (as distinct from what I had planned to cover), any things about the manner of presenting that class's material that didn't work so well, any student questions that were especially interesting or surprising, and any follow-up tasks. The what got covered has been invaluable for planning the next time I offer the same class and has also proved very helpful when I've had more than one section of a single class. (Despite the use of beamer, I try to let the class develop as the students want as much as I do, so there is always some substantial differences between two sections of the same class to keep track of.)

The backends that are in production treats the first paragraph as but a single paragraph. Not the export engine, but the parser. Comment is an element type, as is Paragraph. Beginning an element ends the previous one. This has always been true in Org. For example, you may look at `paragraph-start' and `paragraph-separate' values in an Org buffer: comments (and many other things) are clearly separating and ending paragraphs. Also, it is consistent with other elements. Indeed, consider the following example: --8---cut here---start-8--- : fixed-width line 1 # Commented line : fixed-width line 2 --8---cut here---end---8--- If you use C-c ' on the first fixed-width line, you won't be offered to edit also the second one. Though, you're right, current exporter indeed ignores that Org feature. There is already a way by which parbreaks can be introduced. Do you think there could be some useful behaviour achieved - side by side export of images came up in this thread - by not having commented elements introduce parbreaks. I think that it's a mistake to rely on comments to define semantics. Anyway, I suggested something already about the problem of side by side paragraphs. What was wrong with it? If it wasn't clear, I'll try to provide an example. If it was flawed, we may try to improve it. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
Re: [O] Frontmatter / Text before first headline
Hello, Jambunathan K kjambunat...@gmail.com writes: I have trouble understanding what the real purpose of the text before the first headline is. It looks to me more like a placeholder for capturing the Frontmatter [1]. If you're talking about the first section in the parse tree, the e-ascii back-end makes use of it: even if that part of the document, links may have to be collected and displayed before the first headline. Also, Frontmatter probably only makes sense for large documents. I sometimes write documents that doesn't even have an headline. Should they be considered as one big frontmatter? Where would be the matter, then? I have also trouble understanding what the rightful position for it is: Should it be like: (a) Title, Initial Text, TOC, Chapters Or like (b) Title, TOC, Initial Text, Chapters Currently org-latex does a (b). But if I look at an organization of a typical document, I am inclined to think that it should be (a). It is also my contention that Table Of Contents is relocatable only as a means to achieve (b). Honestly, (b) is easier to achieve than (a), since TOC can be stuffed in preamble (that is before reading the parse tree). Also, as it's configurable, I don't think we should bother too much here. I am wondering if you would be interested in formalizing frontmatter in Org documents. Backends will then be obligated to render the front matter headings as centered text. What about using special blocks? --8---cut here---start-8--- #+begin_abstract This is the document abstract. #+end_abstract --8---cut here---end---8--- You can even use a drawer and define its export behaviour in `org-export-format-drawer-function' (current exporter) or an equivalent. Anyway, if it happens that tools to build complex documents are missing[1], I agree that we should provide them, as long as they aren't imposed to the user. Regards, [1] But, first, let's make sure that it's impossible, or at least very difficult, with current ones. -- Nicolas Goaziou

Indeed it works with the change proposed by this patch. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/40550 I just tried to apply that patch and get: --- $ patch -p1 ../tj3.patch patching file org-taskjuggler.el patch: malformed patch at line 9: completed, chart --- Not sure what's wrong. Even so, see my most recent thread (http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg51502.html). Even if that patch works, it's not a viable solution. It sets a default value, but this is really *the* value as in there's no way to override it from the file. If you want a different export format, you have to edit your emacs config. The variable should be called 'org-taskjuggler-export-report'. I think the ability to include a .tji file is the way to go. Write your report definition, add =include reports.tji= to the exporter and you're all set. John This change is apparently not implemented in the current org-taskjuggler.el file.

First off let me say that I'm using the taskjuggler exporter with tj3, so it should work. As far as I know setting the org-export-taskjuggler-default-reports should work. As I agree that this is a bit clumsy and sets the reports for all projects. I'm setting the variable in a file variable like so (the compile-command is optional but you need to adapt it to match the location of your tj3 binary and your file name): # Local Variables: # org-export-taskjuggler-target-version: 3.0 # org-export-taskjuggler-default-reports: (include \reports.tji\) # compile-command: ~/.gem/ruby/1.9.1/bin/tj3 yourfilename.tjp # End: Then I define the reports in a separate file which is included similar to the solution you outline below.

The tj3 reports are quite massive and it is hard to come by some which could be included in the Emacs source (you need copyright assignments). Maybe the ones I have in my reports.tji could qualify. For one, not every project will have the same report. Secondly, it seems odd to tweak report definitions through my .emacs file? Yes I agree, see above. Based on my fiddling tonight, here are some suggestions/inquiries: 1) Could there be something equivalent to #+latex/#+begin_latex that would let me export some literal taskjuggler syntax into a file? Perhaps throw everything between a #+begin/end_taskjuggler just before the closing } for the task? I can see a use case for this with regards to reports. But what is the use case if you'd place this inside tasks? The problem with literal sections of taskjuggler is where to place them. Something might me related to the project header, other stuff to the reports, etc. 2) Could a different naming convention be used? It seems the currently it's either what is defined by the property :task_id: or defaults to the first word of the headline. If the default were more likely to be unique, it would spare having to define a ton of =task_id= properties; instead one could define dependencies based on headline names because the syntax for naming was known and not likely to clash with another headline's ID. --- First word of the parent headline + _ + first word of actual headline? --- Bump it to the first two words of each headline? The exporter just makes the task_id locally unique. That's what tj expects. From your usage I guess that you have a lot of tasks with the same name (probably within different hierarchies).

The tj team seems to have left that version behind; perhaps the org exporter should to? I still prefer the old reports. But I guess yes, the exporter should move on and support tj3 out of the box. The two main problems are 1. default reports with copyright assignments. As I include this in the Emacs source we need to have assignments. I can't just take the ones from the tj3 manual (I'd have to ask the author first). 2. A way to invoke the view (as seamless as before). For tj 2.4 I was able to just invoke the taskjuggler gui with the exported tjp file. For tj3 the exporter needs to somehow find out which reports are generated (HTML, text, csv) and then invoke the appropriate viewer.

Hi Rainer Rainer M Krug r.m.k...@gmail.com writes: I would like to use the export to taskjuggler, but somehow I don't get it working - might be me or the fact that I have taskjuggler 3.1.0. I am trying the example on http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-taskjuggler.html but I somehow don't get it to work. Export to a file which can be consumed by tj3 should work. Opening the exported file with tj2 silently fails if you do not have tj2 installed. What exactly isn't working? My questions are: 1) does the taskjuggler export work with tj3 (version 3.1.0) (John Hendy says it doesn't (taskjuggler (tj3) export issues and proposals), but there are patches which should have made it work (e.g. Christian Egli, small edits to org-taskjuggler.el for tj3). So: what is the actual status? As I said, export to tj3 should work. See also my resonse to John Hendy. 2) does the example (url above) work for tj3? The example file should work. Set org-export-taskjuggler-target-version to 3 and set the org-export-taskjuggler-default-reports to something that tj3 understands. Export to tj3 should be done using C-c C-e j (org-export-taskjuggler), as C-c C-e J silently fails if you don't have TaskJugglerUI (aka tj2.4) installed. On the resulting tjp file run tj3 and open the result in a browser. 3) if no, could somebody provide a simple example org file which works with tj3? The example file works if I follow the steps above. Let me know if you have any problems.

Not just ignored, but the lines containing the references are removed before export. The use case is this: I find myself writing articles where I have a series of code examples like this: #+begin_src ruby boilerplate 2 + 2 # = #+end_src The boilerplate is required to make the sample work, but I don't want to have the boilerplate code show up in the finished article, because it would be repeated for every example. I also don't want the noweb reference to show up in the finished article, because it will confuse readers and syntax highlighters. Is this possible now, and/or a feature that could be easily added?

Re: [O] noweb-ref: Limiting scope of definitions?
Yu yu_...@gmx.at writes: Hello! Scenario - * Maintain a potentially long org file as an appendix. * In this appendix, many independent scripting tasks will be documented. * Each such scripting task has similiar partial tasks, e.g. imports, settings, ... In such a case, many independent scripts may contain a block imports or something or something to the same effect, i.e. an overlap of definitions could be avoided only by some sort of scoping: (a) manually, e.g. by prefixing the names with a script-specific string (e.g. task1-imports. While this is flexible (i.e. allows reuse of code from other script), it also reduces the readability of the NOWEB code). (b) providing some sort of scoping, e.g. declaring definitions section-local. Implementation Idea -- A simple implementation, maintaining the flexibility of the manual solution, would be to create a header argument like :noweb-prefix, that effectively just adds a prefix to the noweb reference names (both in declaring the block (#+name, :noweb-ref) and in using it (name)), unless such a prefix is explicitly specified. This could then be set as needed, for specific blocks or subtrees (as property) or any mixture of such. A prefix would then be recognized by a delimiter string to be specified. This solution would also be downward compatible with existing files, as the syntax for recognizing a prefix would be relevant only when deciding whether to apply an explicitly introduced :noweb-prefix. This does seem like a good idea and a header argument such as :noweb-prefix is certainly the way to implement such functionality. I'll add this to my long term stack.

Re: [O] Org without X on Debian
I often use org in emacs inside an xterm (because the emacs is running on a machine far away and remote x emacs is piggy about bandwidth). Several observations: keys like shift-up sometimes work I think local xterm is somehow making a keycode and sending it over ssh. So it seems like in environments where there's a notion of 7-bit ASCII character sets and the 8th bit being available for meta, emacs tries to cope with that. I use no locale settings. But on machines with LC_ALL=en_US.utf-8 or some such, I find that the meta key doesn't work in emacs any more (at least on remote logins) You can avoid all those keys and do things in org other ways. I tend to c-c c-s and type a new date, rather than use arrows anyway. There is (setq org-use-speed-commands t) and then 'l' and 'r' on headings will demote/promote. I like this because I don't have to remember if I'm in an environment where shift-arrow works. (IMHO it's a bug in org that anything mainstream uses keystrokes that are not available in a regular terminal. Back when I was young, we didn't have X, and had to carry our own VT52s to school. :-) pgp9WvPitVkFF.pgp Description: PGP signature

Eric S Fraga wrote:
herewith is a minimal example that illustrates the problem I have with
exporting and file local variables. The attached file re-defines
org-export-latex-tag-markup to use a box instead of bold for tags. When
I visit the file, Emacs does indeed set the variable to what I
want. However, this setting is ignored on export.
Actually, in this case, the BIND is also ignored on export even though
the variable does change to the specified value after export!
I am very confused, to say the least. *How* can I get file local
behaviour when exporting with org? Am I doing something silly
somewhere? (highly likely given my past track record ;-) Do others see
different behaviour?
I'm up to date (as of this morning) with org and latest emacs as of last

The back of the actual title page (which would be page 3 if it were numbered) almost always has some text, most often the bibliographic entry. (*) The bastard title is a relict from those times when you bought your books as folded signatures as they were coming from the printer and you had to cut and bind the book yourself if you were going to the trouble and expense. The title page(s) and front matter would be printed after the rest of the book had already been off the press on their own signature (you wouldn't know the page numbers for the TOC otherwise). I am wondering if you would be interested in formalizing frontmatter in Org documents. Backends will then be obligated to render the front matter headings as centered text. I'm not sure why you'd insist on centered. - Title Page , Frontmatter | - Copyright notice | - Abstract | - Preface | - Acknowledgements | - Dedication | - Table Of Contents | - List of Tables, Figures and Illustrations etc The title page is considered part of the front matter in traditional printing as it is printed on the same sheet as the rest of the front matter.

Eric S Fraga e.fr...@ucl.ac.uk wrote: Hello all, herewith is a minimal example that illustrates the problem I have with exporting and file local variables. The attached file re-defines org-export-latex-tag-markup to use a box instead of bold for tags. When I visit the file, Emacs does indeed set the variable to what I want. However, this setting is ignored on export. Actually, in this case, the BIND is also ignored on export even though the variable does change to the specified value after export! I am very confused, to say the least. *How* can I get file local behaviour when exporting with org? Am I doing something silly somewhere? (highly likely given my past track record ;-) Do others see different behaviour? Good question (I mean the *How* question): I believe this is a bug and it has to do with the problem that Dan Davison identified and (as it turns out) partially fixed a year ago (see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/35439/focus=36878 for those details). In a nutshell, the problem is that many export operations happen in temporary buffers. These buffers do not automatically inherit local variables, so the global setting is in force. Dan introduced a clone local variables function and arranged for it to be called in org-export-preprocess-string. However, the latter function operates on a temp buffer, so when it returns (it returns the contents of the temp buffer as as a string), the buffer is gone - and so are the local variables. The latex exporter then continues mucking around with the returned string. The org-export-latex-markup variable is used in the function org-export-latex-keywords-maybe. At the relevant moment, the call stack looks like this: , | org-export-latex-keywords-maybe() | org-export-latex-fontify-headline(#( Formatting tags :example: 1 16 ...)) | org-export-latex-subcontent(...) | org-export-latex-sub(...) | org-export-latex-global(...) | (let* (...) (set-buffer buffer) (erase-buffer) (org-install-letbind) ... (org-export-latex-global (with-temp-buffer (insert string-for-export)) ...) ...) | org-export-as-latex(nil nil nil *Org LaTeX Export*) | org-export-as-latex-to-buffer(nil) | call-interactively(org-export-as-latex-to-buffer) ` Note that org-export-latex-global is called with a temp buffer and neither it nor any of its successors clones local variables. So you end up in org-export-latex-keywords-maybe with the global settings in force. The quick-and-dirty hack would be to call Dan's cloning function in the call to with-temp-buffer, but that's not enough: org-export-latex-fontify-headline does the temp-buffer thingie as well and needs the same treatment. That seems to make *this* case work but I'm almost 100% sure that that won't be enough in the general case either: there are probably other places where temp buffers are created to do some processing like this. They will also be subject to this problem. Nick I'm up to date (as of this morning) with org and latest emacs as of last week.

Re: [O] How do teachers use org-mode
I recently retired from teaching (perhaps temporarily). I was a high school science teacher, for the most part. I was the odd man out in my school district, perhaps the only one who used GNU/Linux, and on the island where I was working/living the only computer course in the public schools was comptuer literacy---a term which meant able to use M$ Office. [I did present an install fest workshop, where about 15 teachers were able to install Ubuntu GNU/Linux on their laptops, and a few may still use it, four years or so later, for personal issues. Given this environment, I used Free Software tools to do everything, bucking the trend, and eventually org mode became a central tool, though mainly in the support of teaching. Here are a few things I have done: - used org-mode to collect notes and readings to output using latex export, for handouts. - kept daily notes as the days went on, on student progress or issues. I had developed capture templates to enable the rapid capture of notes on the fly. Tagging made it possible for those notes to be recovered by period or subject. I could print a report for a meeting with a parent in about two minutes. - to capture outlines of the day to day work. This function could have benefited by better organization. I could clone a date tree to write lesson plans or outlines. - twice I used org-mode spread sheets to keep grade records and calculate grades. It worked fine. Graphs could be generated. - Carsten's relative timer has been useful in developing notes about videos to facilitate instruction / discussion. It was possible to sit in class as the videos were playing, and make notes indexed to the elapsed time of the video. Then, since I had often had copies of DVDs on my computer, or showed them using a computer, I could rapidly / randomly access any sequence by referring to my outline and time marks. I also used these to edit chopped up versions of a video for class review at a later time, for which I found the tool avidemux2 a perfect one. (I took a course in Fellini many years ago. The professor had a whole print, and a chopped up one. This is an extremely useful tool, and one for which the relative timer is uniquely helpful.) - Write tests and output using latex export. This wasn't as useful to me as examdesign.sty formated tests in straight LaTeX. I was not able to put together a work flow for doing this using org-mode latex export, though I imagine it is possible. I could, however, make up short quizzes, sometimes projected as beamer presentation, and the various org-mode tools allow one to keep notes on student progress. Again, capture templates are the key, and tags help to search and find. Probably the most useful here was the ability to write questions (capture again), but I had to tweak them by hand during export. - use latex export to make up rapid handouts with illustrations. Org-mode makes this extremely easy and fast. Too bad others in the school district didn't seem to have time for the learning curve. - Rapidly prepare decently presented readings from Project Gutenberg text of chapters of books for student reading, and, when desireable, make them available for students as a PDF. - In fact, rapidly format anything textual for LaTeX output, including outline notes for lecture. - Rapidly produce tables of student generated data for immediate output and feedback. For example, we counted as a class the chirp rate of a cricket that happened to be in the room and correclated the temperatures, on the board. In three minutes I could produce output for students on a laser printer, for further discussion, and for a response assignment. - todo lists with capture templates to make notes on student questions or needs for addressing later. - One thing that was not directly related to instruction was the ability to take notes on student conduct and progress using a capture template. Although this was not my favorite activity, I was required to do so, and using org-mode I could print out a report for the school administration in three minutes. This was not my favorite activity. - I developed a template to generate a memo in one minute, or less, that wrapped selected text in a memo header, and generated a PDF. This doesn't seem much related to pedagogy, I'm afraid. Mostly it reflects my teaching style, and is pretty much focused on efficiency, not including the more sophisticated usages of org-mode that you will want to incorporate into your IT courses. I came to org-mode through my need for an outliner. This is by far the greatest outliner I have ever seen. Alan Davis

[O] {Feature Request] Have org-capture-refile treat the buffer from which org-capture was called as current buffer
Hi all, My org-refile-targets definition includes ((nil :maxlevel . 5) (org-agenda-files :maxlevel . 10) ;; snip irrelevant details ) The list starting with nil works fine to allow me to refile items from within an org file being visited to that same file irrespective of whether that file appears elsewhere in the org-refile-targets definition and that is indeed useful. However, most of the time I am wanting to refile to an occasional use (thus, not in org-refile-targets) org file, the desire arises when I am working in that file and want to use org-capture to get an item with one of my capture templates' boilerplate materials included. From within the org-capture buffer, org-capture-refile doesn't offer the buffer from which org-capture was invoked as a target (unless, of course, it is visiting a file otherwise specified in org-refile-targets). That behaviour is completely in keeping with org-refile-targets' docstring: Nil means consider headings in the current buffer. After all, once org-capture has been invoked, the capture-buffer is the current buffer. What I would like is for nil in org-refile-targets to mean is consider headings in the current buffer unless that buffer is a capture buffer, in which case consider headings in the buffer from which org-capture was invoked. (Actually, what I would really like is for someone to point out that this is already possible and to forgive my failure to find out how on my own ;-) Thanks and best, Brian vdB
