Hello, I have a computer.org file with this structure:

* Log
** [2011-09-12 Mon 17:34] update ...
** [2011-09-07 Wed 18:09] update ...
** TODO [2011-09-04 Sun 20:23] nouveau + pm-suspend -> black tty 	:bug:

I've been adding entries manually up to now. However I'd like to use
capture to make adding entries easier. I have this template:   

("l" "System Log" entry (file+headline "~/Documents/org/computer.org"
"Log") "* %U %? \n %i\n")

which works, the only problem is that the entry gets added at the *bottom*
of the other level 2 headers, while I'd want it to be at the top 
(such that the top entry is the latest date).

Any help on how I could modify the template?

cheers
renato

  Hi,
  
  Try setting the :prepend property:
  
  ("l" "System Log" entry (file+headline "~/Documents/org/computer.org" 
  "Log") "* %U %? \n %i\n" :prepend t)
  
  hth,
  Christian
