But I have to tell you that I = found the refile command to be totally useless when I first started = using org-mode. It was almost a year before I figured out that this = variable had to be customized to make it useful. Yes, this is totally my fault for not reading the manual. But there was = a lot to learn and it was a long time before I got around to reading = that section. Once I tried it and it didn=E2=80=99t do anything I = really wanted it to do, it fell off my radar as I concentrated on other = things. I=E2=80=99m sure I=E2=80=99m not the only one.
