Subject: Capture aborts after selecting template
Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2011 10:42:52 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20111126T112648-581@post.gmane.org> (raw)

I am using GNU Emacs 23.1.1 with org-mode version 7.7. I want to use C-c c t to
capture a task and send it to ~/todo.org as defined in the org-capture-template
 below. On pressing C-c c, the Org Select buffer opens but when I hit t, I get
the error message "Capture abort: (void-function nil)" and nothing gets written
to todo.org. The relevant lines from my
.emacs and a backtrace from uncompiled code are shown below.  Please help me fix
this.  

.EMACS
(define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture)
(setq org-directory "~/")

(setq org-capture-templates
      (quote 
      (("t" "Todo" entry (file+headline "~/todo.org" "Tasks")
             "* TODO %?\n  %i\n  %a")
        ("j" "Journal" entry (file+datetree "~/journal.org")
             "* %?\nEntered on %U\n  %i\n  %a"))))

BACKTRACE (Although I followed the instructions carefully, my backtrace still
has some byte code that I couldn't paste here.)
