Re: [Orgmode] Org capture with predefined entries from a list? |

Thank you for your interest.
First: org.el 7/9/2010, org-capture.el 2/9/2010
Contents of .emacs:
(...)
(setq org-capture-templates
'(("t" "Todo" entry (file+headline "~/org/gtd.org" "Tasks")
"* TODO %?\n %i\n %a")
("j" "Journal" entry (file+datetree "~/org/journal.org")
"* %?\nEntered on %U\n %i\n %a")))
(...)
So, let's start:
1. In any buffer: M-x org-capture
2. Appears a menu saying "Select a capture template". Of course, two options
[t] and [j], and [C] Customize org-capture-templates and [q] Abort.
3. I press [t] and get a "capture buffer" with "* TODO" inserted, ready to
accept more info
4. C-c C-c finish and save the entry in ~/org/gtd.org
Ok. That's what I would like:
1. In any buffer: M-x org-capture
2. Appears a menu saying "Select a capture template". Of course, two options
[t] and [j], and [C] Customize org-capture-templates and [q] Abort.
3. I press [t] and get a "capture buffer" with "* TODO" inserted, ready to
accept my entry
4. Appears another menu saying "Select task type or whatever": several options:
[1] Task1 [2] Task2 [3] Task3 ...
5. I press [1] and "capture buffer" updates with "* TODO Task1" inserted,
ready to accept more info
6. Ideally appears another menu saying "Select comment or whatever": several
options: [1] Comment1 [2] Comment2 [3] Comment3 ...
7. I press [1] and "capture buffer" updates with "* TODO Task1 Comment1"
inserted, ready to accept more info
8. Ideally steps 6 and 7 would be repeated (well, no more than 4 or 5 times)
4. C-c C-c finish and save the entry in ~/org/gtd.org
In the original post I said that if not possible, I would be happy with a
shortkey launching a buffer showing the options of step 4, then I would select
one of them and it would inserted after "* TODO"
I hope now it is more clear.
