Hello,

I often find myself doing the following: use a capture template to
nicely setup an entry (often a date tree entry with a link to the
current document), then jump to the newly created headline to start
adding notes. I typically do this during meetings, as I do not want to
stay in the capture buffer all the time.

Is there a way to setup a capture template such that it directly opens
the target file and set-up entry, instead of the capture buffer?

I tried a universal argument before calling org-capture, but it only
jumps to the capture destination and does not set up the entry.

Thanks,

Alan

You can customize your capture templates with `M-x org-capture RET C'.
Look especially at the plist keywords `:immediate-finish` and
`:jump-to-captured`.

Best,

Thank you for the suggestion. Looking at the info manual I found the
documentation for "immediate-finish", but not for
"jump-to-captured". I found it in the code and it seems to be exactly
what I want.

Thanks again,

Alan
