What I would like to do is some interactive function that would allow me to quickly input a new next action to a specific list. Maybe each main list in the project could have a shortcut (like tags do) and when you run this function you enter the string for the next action item, and quickly says where you want it to go, and it appends it there. I'm not deep enough in elisp to do that, so, if someone could help me I would be grateful! Thanks, Marcelo.

But the idea is different, I want to bind this func to a key combo, when it is called it would ask interactively for the item's string, then, after that, where I would like to put it (it might ask me to write or to choose from a list - like the add tag does).

Thank you for the replies. It has been some time but I had lots of work to do here so didn't have much time to play around. So, refiling doesn't do exactly what I would like. Some issues I've found: * I need to write the data in a buffer first and then C-c C-w to refile it. * It only allows you to refile to the root items and doesn't go any deeper. * If I'm processing items in a different file (I've setup org-remember to save the items in a different file) I don't have access to my gtd.org file lists (can't refile between different files). -- is there a way to get the items from another file? org-remember is really powerful and I use it a lot when I have ideas that I want to process later. However, sometimes you have a specific cristal-clear next-action in your head and you know where it belongs (i.e the project), but you want to quickly input it and keep working. This is something I miss from PlannerMode, where you can quickly input an item and choose which file it will go, so, that's what I would like org to have, a **quick way to input items interactivelly, all through the mini-buffer.** Is there a way to do that? If not, I keep it as a suggestion for next releases. I'm also willing to contribute as soon as I master elisp! Keep up the great work, Marcelo.

If you want this as the default action, you can set org-remember-store-without-prompt to t. Are you perhaps using an older version of org-mode (version 4.xx)? If so, you need to update to a more recent version to get these features. Regards, Matt ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

What is the correct param for that? Also, how could I ask emacs the correct param for a specific var? Thanks! Marcelo.

I suggest you use M-h v org-refile-targets and then click the _customize_ link and set it up that way. This saves me tons of time not configuring the variables incorrectly and then having to debug it later. -Bernt ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

It's an extra key, but I prefer using C-u since it works regardless of the environment I'm running Emacs in. -- Peter Jones, http://pmade.com pmade inc.
