In-Reply-To: <48BD75D7.10800@calicojack.co.uk> (Rick Moynihan's message of "Tue\, 02 Sep 2008 18\:20\:23 +0100")
I avoid this issue with
,----
| (setq org-use-fast-todo-selection t)
`----
then I use C-c C-t and select the todo item I want directly. I no
longer deal with going through the wrong state (and prompting for a
note) before going to my desired todo keyword.
My org-todo-keywords are:
,----
| (setq org-todo-keywords
| '((sequence "TODO(t)" "NEXT(n)" "WAITING(w@/!)" "ONGOING(o)" "SOMEDAY(s@/!)" "|" "DONE(d!/!)" "CANCELLED(c!/!)")
| (sequence "QUOTATION(Q!)" "QUOTED(D!)" "APPROVED(A!)" "|" "EXPIRED(E!)" "REJECTED(R!)")
| (sequence "OPEN(O!)" "|" "CLOSED(C!)")))
`----
Hope that works for you too.
