Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ When I use an org-capture template that prompts for something (e.g. headline title) and I abort the prompt (C-g), the capture process is aborted. When I quit Emacs right after this, it mentions the target file to be changed and asks if I would like to save the change. If I say yes, the target file is written to disk with just the skeleton of the template. Steps to reproduce: - setup capture targets with a prompt, e.g. (setq org-capture-templates '(("t" "Task or appointment" entry (file "~/org/inbox.org") "* TODO %^{Todo} \n:PROPERTIES:\n:created: %U\n:END:\n\n%?") ("m" "Task or appointment (internet message)" entry (file "~/org/inbox.org") "* TODO %:subject \n:PROPERTIES:\n:created: %U\n:END:\n\n%a\n\n%?") ("i" "Idea (some day, may be)" entry (file "~/org/inbox.org") "* MAYBE %^{What} \n:PROPERTIES:\n:created: %U\n:END:\n\n%?") ("n" "Note" entry (file "~/org/inbox.org") "* %:subject%^{Topic} :note:\n:PROPERTIES:\n:created: %U\n:END:\n\n%?") ("p" "Project" entry (file "~/org/inbox.org") "* %^{Project} :project:\n:PROPERTIES:\n:created: %U\n:END:\n\n%?"))) - call `org-capture' and select template with prompt (e.g. "t") - when prompted, press C-g - quit Emacs, answer yes to save target file - *boom*, the target contains just: * TODO :PROPERTIES: :created: [2010-06-27 So 07:36] :END: %? Taking a quick look at this, I noticed that after aborting the prompt I have a buffer namend "*Capture*" with the skeletion of the template, i.e. exactly what is writting to disk when I leave Emacs. C-c C-k does not work in this buffer. And it is not even necessary to leave Emacs -- calling `org-save-all-org-buffers' seems to cause this buffer writting to target file. -- David Emacs : GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.20.0) of 2010-05-16 on raven, modified by Debian Package: Org-mode version 6.36trans (release_6.36.430.gec51) current state: ============== (setq org-export-html-final-hook '(org-inlinetask-remove-terminator) org-log-done 'time org-wl-nntp-prefer-web-links t org-export-author-info nil org-export-latex-default-class "scrartcl" org-export-latex-after-initial-vars-hook '(org-beamer-after-initial-vars) org-todo-keyword-faces '(("MAYBE" :foreground "coral" :weight bold) ("TODO" :foreground "red" :weight bold) ("NEXT" :foreground "orange red" :weight bold) ("WAIT" :foreground "dark red" :weight bold) ("DONE" :foreground "forest green" :weight bold) ("CANCELLED" :foreground "dark gray" :weight bold)) org-wl-shimbun-prefer-web-links t org-agenda-custom-commands '(("r" "Refile new tasks, projects, notes, and references" tags "LEVEL=1+REFILE" ((org-agenda-overriding-header "New tasks, projects, notes, and references"))) ("o" "Other tasks" tags-todo "STYLE<>\"habit\"/!TODO" ((org-agenda-skip-function (quote dmj/has-timestamp)) (org-agenda-overriding-header "Other tasks")) ) ("n" "Next actions" tags-todo "/!NEXT" ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Next actions"))) ("M" "Someday/maybe" tags-todo "/!MAYBE") ("p" "Projects" tags "project" ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Projects"))) ("P" "New projects" tags-todo "/!-DONE-CANCELLED" ((org-agenda-overriding-header "New projects") (org-agenda-skip-function (quote dmj/skip-non-project))) ) ) org-agenda-files '("~/org/") org-blocker-hook '(org-block-todo-from-children-or-siblings-or-parent org-depend-block-todo) org-agenda-tags-column -100 org-export-ascii-final-hook '(org-inlinetask-remove-terminator) org-hide-leading-stars t org-clock-into-drawer "CLOCK" org-checklist-export-function 'org-export-as-ascii org-metaup-hook '(org-babel-load-in-session-maybe) org-after-todo-state-change-hook '(org-clock-out-if-current org-checklist) org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled t org-todo-state-tags-triggers '((todo ("note"))) org-log-state-notes-insert-after-drawers t org-export-blocks-postblock-hook '(org-exp-res/src-name-cleanup) org-export-latex-format-toc-function 'org-export-latex-format-toc-default org-stuck-projects '("project/-DONE-CANCELLED" ("NEXT") nil nil) org-trigger-hook '(org-depend-trigger-todo) org-export-preprocess-hook '(org-export-blocks-preprocess) org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance '("note" "project") org-tab-first-hook '(org-hide-block-toggle-maybe org-babel-hide-result-toggle-maybe) org-src-mode-hook '(org-src-mode-configure-edit-buffer) org-confirm-shell-link-function 'yes-or-no-p org-export-first-hook '(org-beamer-initialize-open-trackers) org-wl-link-remove-filter t org-startup-indented t org-todo-keywords '((sequence "MAYBE(m)" "TODO(t)" "NEXT(n)" "WAIT(w@/!)"
