The new default is "Email %c: %.30s" and leads to Email from NAME: SUBJECT If you configure the variable `org-from-is-user-regexp' correctly, then for email you *sent* this will actually change to Email to NAME: SUBJECT The subject is limited to 30 characters. If you have become attached to the previous default (look twice, the new one is better), use "%f on: %s" as your format. - Selecting text before entering a new link with C-c C-l now really works, the selected text becomes the description part of the link. Requested by Scott, buggy 4.62 implementation is now fixed. - Stored links are part of the history list for C-c C-l, so to reach them, you can use up/down rather than completion. Thanks to Raman for this excellent idea. - A line consisting only of "-", and at least 5 of them, is exported into HTML as
, as proposed by Giovanni Ridolfi. - Several changes to org <-> remember integration - You can use `org-remember' as your default command to start remember. It will automatically detect if there is an active region and use it as initial content (we will probably make remember.el work like this as well). Also, when calling `org-remember' in a remember buffer that was created with a template, you will again be asked to select a template. The buffer is then re-created with the new template, but the old context information. This is useful if you change your mind about the template to use (Leo's idea). - Besides specifying a default *target* file for a note, you can also give a default *heading* of which the note should become a subitem. In many cases this avoids or speeds up navigating to the right location. Both file and heading can be different for each template. Both are non-binding, you can change them while storing the note. However, when you exit remember with C-u C-c C-c, these defaults will be used without interaction. - Templates can specify interactive fields. During expansion of the template, you will be prompted for the information in that field. For example %^t will pop up a calendar and ask you to select a date. This new feature follows a proposal from Leo, who in the mean time has said he does not need it anymore. But I liked it, so here it is :-) - Templates can access information specific to the link type created, for example the author and subject of an email. Syntax is %:fromname, %:fromaddress, %:subject etc, details in the manual. Proposed by Peder O. Klingenberg. - I have been considering to move, at some stage, the template functionality into remember.el itself - which would of course require consent of the remember.el maintainers. I am not sure how well this would work though, since some things like the interactive time stamps are org.el specific, so treating them would require special hooks. Comments?
