For projects I have a setup something like this: --- * Tracking Stores todos and such * Journals Stores chronological notes that aren't todos. Lets me know when I worked on things. * Reference Odds and ends that aren't chronological, but that I might want to look at. --- It would be awesome to be in a project file and then jump right to a current date tree and start taking notes about something. Capture is the only way I've seen to do this, but it seems to require a specific file target, which means I need capture templates for every project file, right? Or is there some option like (file+datetree "~/['use-this-file].org") (just throwing something out there)? Thanks for any comments. John
