After the next pull, try a remember template like this. This is only a dirty hack, I hope James TD Smith's implementation will be better. But it works. If the heading field in the template is `top' or `bottom', it is now OK if the target file is not in Org-mode, and the text in the remember buffer will be added to the file unchanged. Try a template like this: ("ledger" 108 "" "~/org/ledger" bottom nil) HTH - Carsten > > Thanks. > > On Mon, Apr 13, 2009 at 01:53:59PM +0200, Carsten Dominik wrote: >> >> On Apr 13, 2009, at 11:19 AM, Madhu Rao wrote: >> >>> Has anyone tried to configure org in a personal finance manager >>> mode? >>> I looked in the mail archive, but couldn't find any related posts. >>> >>> The finance applications on Mac OS are either too clumsy or >>> sophisticated. >>> I thought org-mode with some remember capture templates will do that >>> stuff >>> rather efficiently. >>> If anyone has already set this up, that will help get started. >> >> While I have not used it myself, I would suspect that people, >> who get along with Org well, would be candidates for trying ledger >> by John Wiegley >> >> - Carsten >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Emacs-orgmode mailing list >> Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. >> Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org >> http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode >> > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > Russell Adams RLAdams@AdamsInfoServ.com > > PGP Key ID: 0x1160DCB3 http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/ > > Fingerprint: 1723 D8CA 4280 1EC9 557F 66E8 1154 E018 1160 DCB3 > > > _______________________________________________ > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode
