I reviewed the org-manual for capture, and noticed that we don't have
a way to specify tab stops. I use yasnippet all the time to enter
information, and I can tab from field to field.
Can capture do the same?
Here's an example from yasnippet:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
#contact : Add a contact w/ PROPERTY drawer

Hi Russel,
can't you just use a yasnippet in a capture buffer?

Certainly, if that's the preferred method.
Given that, I'm trying to get yasnippet to trigger via elisp when
capture creates the new buffer.
A template of "\n\ncontact%(yas/expand)" fails with:
condition-case: Capture abort: (wrong-type-argument char-or-string-p nil)
And a template of:
"\n\n%(yas/expand-snippet (yas/template-content (yas/get-template-by-uid 'org-mode \"contact\")))"
fails with:
condition-case: Capture template `c': The kill is not a (set of) tree(s) - please use <S-insertchar> to yank anyway
Anyone more familiar with elisp that can give me some insight?
Thanks.

Hi Russel,
I meant it in an even simpler way, just type you yasnippet keyword and
press
TAB to expand and fill in.
yas/expand-snippet relies on text in the buffer, and I don't think it
returns the expanded template as a string either.
