So, I made a small elisp function that basically creates a "reference file"
in my org dir and indexes it in an org file, so it can be searchable with
the agenda without the overhead of adding the file to the agenda list:

(defun create-reference-file (filename title tags) "Creates a new reference
and file it"
  (interactive (list
                (read-string "Filename: ")
                (read-string "Title: ")
                (read-string "Tags: ")
                ))
  (set-buffer (get-buffer-create filename))
  (beginning-of-buffer)
  (insert (concat "* tags " tags))
   ;;saves the buffer
   (when (file-writable-p filename)
      (write-region (point-min) (point-max) (concat
"~/org/data/dynamic_reference/" filename ".org")))
  (set-buffer (find-file-noselect "~/org/gtd/reference.org"))
  (end-of-buffer)
  ;;(create-wiki-page filename)
  (insert (concat "** " title " " tags ":reference:file:\n"))
  (org-insert-time-stamp nil t nil)
  (insert "\n")
  (insert (concat "[[file://~/org/data/dynamic_reference/" filename
".org]]"))
  (insert "\n")
  (save-buffer)
  )

I'm only beginning with elisp, so bear with me...

Anyway, it works as expected, but I would like the tags prompt to be like
the prompt org uses, with tags auto-completion and adding the : :
automatically around the tags. Right now, I have to type the : around the
words.

Any hints appreciated!

Marcelo.
