Sorry not quite sure how to phrase the problem in the subject line there.
I have the following setup in my .emacs ...
(defvar org-dir "/home/mash/read/org/")
And use it around such as ...
(setq org-directory org-dir)
(setq org-default-notes-file (concat org-dir "mash.org"))
Now I understand that you can specify a directory such as ...
(setq org-agenda-files '("/home/mash/read/org/"))
But how would I do this with the variable?
(setq org-agenda-files '(org-dir))
(setq org-agenda-files '(,(org-dir))
Any ideas as I would like to use it in my capture templates too ...
(setq org-capture-templates
'(
("t" "Test" entry (file+headline (concat org-dir "test.org" "test")
"* %?")
))
Many thanks,
'Mash

Equivalently
(setq org-agenda-files `(,org-dir))
That's a backquote (on a US keyboard, it's the key to the left of the
1 key in the top row), not a normal quote. See
(info "(elisp) Backquote")
The (list org-dir) form is quite readable here, but when things get
more complicated, the backquote form tends to be more readable than
manufacturing list structure by hand.

Thanks,
I did use a comma to evaluate the variable but without the backtick
which I believed caused that "old style backticks" warning.
