Hi,
I am having trouble getting org-remember to work. I have
(require 'org) with several other org related settings in my
.emacs but when I try M-x org-remember on a TODO item (or anywhere
else) I get:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Autoloading failed to define
function org-remember")
signal(error ("Autoloading failed to define function org-remember"))
error("%s" "Autoloading failed to define function org-remember")
(condition-case act-on-choice (let (...) (setq
icicle-candidate-action-fn nil) (funcall ... cmd-choice)) (quit
(icicle-try-switch-buffer orig-buff) nil) (error
(icicle-try-switch-buffer orig-buff) nil (error "%s" ...)))
(let* ((orig-buff ...) (orig-window ...) (use-file-dialog nil)
(last-command last-command) new-last-cmd (icicle-candidate-action-fn
...)) nil (condition-case act-on-choice (let ... ... ...) (quit ... nil)
(error ... nil ...)) (setq this-command new-last-cmd))
icicle-execute-extended-command()
call-interactively(icicle-execute-extended-command)
If I don't load the icicle package I get roughly the same error:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Autoloading failed to define
function org-remember")
execute-extended-command(nil)
call-interactively(execute-extended-command)
If I load-library org-remember then I can call the function without
error but it doesn't populate the buffer with anything and if I enter
some text and type C-cC-c I get an error about a nonexistent region.
Any ideas?
Emacs 22.3.1

Does replacing
(require 'org)
with
(require 'org-install)
help?

Nick,
It helps with the first problem, the autoload problem. I didn't see
this in the manual anywhere.
However, while it brings up a *Remember* window it doesn't populate
it with any of the templates I have set up (basically I copied what was
in the texinfo doc). And when I write something in it and hit
C-cC-c I get an error:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "The mark is not set now, so
there is no region")
call-interactively(comment-region)
This is not what I expected from the docs.

Nick,
I got it working. As I was looking at my .emacs I noticed that I
had commented out the line:
(org-remember-insinuate)
Once I uncommented this line it worked as expected. I see that
this function does largely what yours does.
And, yes, I see the mention of org-install in sec 1.2.
I had a mixture of docs I was working with originally and
missed that line in the new docs...

Nick,
I'm always glad to be of service ... :)
Thanks for helping me track this all down.

Hi there,
Today I stumbled over a strange problem, to which I did not found a
solution. I am using Emacs 23 on Mac OS X and on Ubuntu (9.10) with a
nearly identical setup (thanks Dropbox!).
On the Mac machines, remembering with org-remember works wonderful and
makes me happy; but on the Ubuntu side, I am running in an error
"wrong-number-of arguments", which can be traced to the following call
(org-remember-mode 1) in this form:
;; Turn on org-mode in the remember buffer, set local variables
(let ((org-inhibit-startup t)) (org-mode) (org-remember-mode 1))
(if (and file (string-match "\\S-" file) (not (file-directory-p file)))
(org-set-local 'org-default-notes-file file))
---
(this starts on line 543 in the current version of this morning)
The call itself looks unsuspicious to my inexperienced I and I have
now idea why Emacs would complain about it in Ubuntu and not in Mac
(there is a very slight difference of about two weeks between
compiling them), so I really have no idea what went wrong and how to
fix it.
As always, any help appreciated,
Christian

Replying to myself here, Mr Google told me that this seems to be a bug
in my Emacs version. Recompiling a more recent pretest made the
problem go away. Sorry for the noise and happy orging,
Christian
