Hi all,

I have written this function to be able to choose the type of block in
which to enclose the marked content (by default, quote). So in
my org-capture template I put %(my-capture-block) instead of %i:

┌────
│ (defun my-capture-block ()
│   (let ((initial (org-capture-get :initial)))
│     (when initial
│       (let ((block-name
│ 	     (read-string
│ 	      "Block type for marked content (default quote): "
│ 	      nil nil "quote")))
│ 	(format
│ 	 "#+begin_%s\n%s\n#+end_%s"
│ 	 block-name
│ 	 initial
│ 	 (if (string-match "\\(src\\)\\(.+\\)" block-name)
│ 	     (match-string 1 block-name)
│ 	   block-name))))))
└────

The function works fine from eww, but it doesn't work with org-protocol
+ qutebrowser, as the value of :initial in org-capture-plist seems to be
nil. I've solved it by enclosing %i between two sexp %(...), one to
format the #+begin_xxx and the other to guess the #+end_xxx, but it's
more verbose. Does anyone have a clue how to get the value of %i for
org-protocol with a function inside the template?

Best regards and happy weekend,

Juan Manuel

Would you mind providing exact steps needed to reproduce the problem?
