If I follow the example in the manual I come up with this: ,---- | | ("* Diary entry: %? | %^T" ?d "~/gtd/diary.org" "Diary date") | `---- However, when I call org-remember I get a blank buffer called 'Remember' and a message saying "org-select-remember-template: Not enough arguments for format string" After looking at templates that I once made via customize I came up with this: ,---- | | (100 "* Diary entry: %? | %^T" "~/gtd/diary.org" "Diary date") | `---- This works perfectly. I define the shortcut character by its ASCII number in the first field of the template, not as a ?-character combo in the second field. I'm guessing that the format and the manual have parted ways at some stage! I'm using org-mode 6.27 trans, and the manual is the same vintage. -- Cameron Horsburgh Blog: http://spiritcry.wordpress.com/
