Hi Martin, I am rejecting this patch, but only because because I think this issue is taken care of in org-capture.el Let me know if you do not agree.

Is there documentation for migrating from org-remember or will there be once org-capture shows up in the manual? Basically do M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates then customize org-capture-templates to check and modify the setup, and then use org-capture from now on to remember stuff. Most of the documentation is (as I said in my mail) currently in the docstrings of the command org-capture and of the variable org-capture- templates.

Re: [Orgmode] Question: org-remember and level1 target headline
Hi, interest in this problem was indicated to me in private mail, so let my sum up my findings so far. I walked through the code in org-remember.el:org-remember-handler. There seems to be no support for path traversal for the non-interactive case. The first headline matching is found regardless of its depth. I now use the following structure for my plan files: * Inbox *** Inbox:host1 *** Inbox:host2 *** Inbox:host3 I use these two functions for computing the current target headline: -- (defun my-host-name () Returns the name of the current host minus the domain. (let ((hostname (downcase (system-name (save-match-data (substring hostname (string-match ^[^.]+ hostname) (match-end 0) (defun my-org-remember-headline () (concatenate 'string Inbox: (my-host-name))) -- In one of the interactive paths in org-remember-handler, org-refile infrastructure is used for inquiring a target from the user. When refiling, / in headline names are replaced with \. Verbatim \ in headlines are also presented as \. That means that test/test and test\test cannot be distinguished for refiling. Is there a specification of what are valid characters in a headline? Is there interest to define remember targets via paths or via ID?

Re: [Orgmode] Question: org-remember and level1 target headline
Let my rephrase the question. How do I specify the target for a org-remember template such that new entries become children of b: * a ** b *** new entry If I specify a/b, a new node named a/b is created * a ** b * a/b ** new entry Cheers, Martin ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] Question: org-remember and level1 target headline
Hi all, to practically prevent merge conflicts between the different machines that I use I want to capture new items not directly under the global Inbox headline, but under Inbox/$HOSTNAME. For example, I often capture new items on my desktop and my notebook and later sync. The new items will always conflict as they are placed as last child of Inbox. I now switched my org-remember templates from statically specifying Inbox as target headline to a helper function: -- (defun my-host-name () Returns the name of the current host minus the domain. (let ((hostname (downcase (system-name (save-match-data (substring hostname (string-match ^[^.]+ hostname) (match-end 0) (defun my-org-remember-headline () (concatenate 'string Inbox/ (my-host-name))) -- The problem now is that I would like the target to be: * Inbox *** $HOSTNAME * new item Instead, I get this: * Inbox/$HOSTNAME *** new items My question now is how to specify the headline hierarchy here?
