Setting up archive for the first time. The guiding text in =M-x
customize variable org-archive-location= says:
,-----
| "~/org/archive.org::From %s"
| Archive in file ~/org/archive.org (absolute path), under headlines
| "From FILENAME" where file name is the current file name.
`-----
I may just be reading this wrong, but I thought that if I were to set
this option like so in a file:
,-----
| #+archive: ~/org/archive.org::From %s
`-----
I would do =C-c C-x C-s= and then see the following in ~/org/archive.org:
,-----
| * From filename.org
| ** done name of archived todo...
`-----
Instead, I saw:
,-----
| Archived entries from file /home/jwhendy/org/rigor.org
| * done name of archived todo...
`-----
When I changed the option to (note the leading *):
,-----
| #+archive: ~/org/archive.org::* From %s
`-----
I got the anticipated result:
,-----
| * From filename.org
| ** done name of archived todo...
`-----
Did I just read the documentation incorrectly, or was my guess
intuitive and perhaps an update/correction would be helpful for
others?
Thanks,
John

You're right there is a typo here, I just fixed it.
It now reads "~/org/archive.org::* From %s"
Thanks!
