Hi there,

I've been enjoying org-mode for a good few months now and I love it.

I'm using the following versions in both Ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop
and 12.04 on my laptop.

#+BEGIN_SRC lisp
(org-version)
Org-mode version 7.8.11
"Org-mode version 7.8.11"
(emacs-version)
"GNU Emacs 24.1.50.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.20.1)
 of 2012-05-25 on muntries, modified by Debian"
#+END_SRC

I've recently started using org-remember/capture and its working well
although I found the presence of org-remember and org-capture
confusing.

I have been trying to get the capture working from anywhere using
[[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-protocol.html][this guide]]
so that it drops the captured note into my misc journal. It works fine
when I'm in emacs (which is about 50% of my working time). Here is my
setup:


#+BEGIN_SRC lisp
;;; Capture setup
(org-remember-insinuate)
(setq org-directory "~/notes/")
(setq org-default-notes-file (concat org-directory "misc.org"))
(setq org-remember-default-headline "Incoming")
(define-key global-map "\C-cr" 'org-remember)
(setq org-remember-templates
      '(("Todo" ?t "* TODO %^{Title} %u\n%?\n%i\n%a\n")))

;;; Capture from anywhere
(require 'org-protocol)

(defun org-protocol-capture (data)
  ;; Capture (ignore data for now)
  (org-remember))

(add-to-list 'org-protocol-protocol-alist
	     '("Remember"
	       :protocol "my-org-capture"
	       :function org-protocol-capture))
#+END_SRC

(start-server) is called earlier in the setup.

I intend to stick the command line invokation onto a hot key
combination so I can enter emacs notes from anywhere.
(orb-protocol-capture) works in emacs but when I try the command line
I get this:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh
~ $ emacsclient org-protocol://org-capture//
Waiting for Emacs...
\*ERROR*: Wrong type argument: stringp, org-capture
~ $ emacsclient org-protocol://org-capture//foo
Waiting for Emacs...
\*ERROR*: Wrong type argument: stringp, org-capture
#+END_SRC

What am I doing wrong?

Feel free to point me at the right manual or guide. From the notes it
looked like this feature might once have been built in.

PS: I usually export the org as html but for some reason the above
headed section just did nothing. A separate issue I'll look into
sometime but if anyone knows the answer I'd be grateful.
