The function should not insert anything into any buffer: it should
*return* what you want to be inserted. For example, the following
minimal .emacs works just fine (after fixing the path appropriately):
,----
| (add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "/path/to/org-mode/lisp"))
| (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.\\(org\\|org_archive\\|txt\\)$" . org-mode))
| (require 'org-install)
| (global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
| (global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
|
| ;;;;
| (setq org-remember-templates '(("CSA" ?C "* TODO %^{topic} %^g\n %t\n %(org-csa) %&" "CSA.org" bottom)))
| (defun org-csa ()
| "foobar")
| (org-remember-insinuate)
|
| ;;;;;
