Org API

Capture something.

This will let you select a template from org-capture-templates, and then file the newly captured information. The text is immediately inserted at the target location, and an indirect buffer is shown where you can edit it. Pressing C-c C-c brings you back to the previous state of Emacs, so that you can continue your work.

When called interactively with a C-u prefix argument goto, don't capture anything, just go to the file/headline where the selected template stores its notes. With a double prefix argument C-u C-u, go to the last note stored.

When called with a C-0 (zero) prefix, insert a template at point.

Lisp programs can set keys to a string associated with a template in org-capture-templates. In this case, interactive selection will be bypassed.

Bookmark the last-captured position.

Arrange for the correct number of empty lines after the inserted string. Point will remain at the first line after the inserted text.

Arrange for the correct number of empty lines before the insertion point. Point will be after the empty lines, so insertion can directly be done.

Check if % was escaped - if yes, unescape it now.

Expand functions and symbols for file. When file is a function, call it. When it is a form, evaluate it. When it is a variable, retrieve the value. Return whatever we get.

Fill a template and return the filled template as a string. The template may still contain "%?" for cursor positioning.

Finalize the capture process. With prefix argument stay-with-capture, jump to the location of the captured item after finalizing.

Get properties from the capture property list org-capture-plist. When local is set, use the local variable org-capture-current-plist, this is necessary after initialization of the capture process, to avoid conflicts with other active capture processes.

Make an indirect buffer for a capture process. Use prefix as a prefix for the name of the indirect buffer.

Get the template from a file or a function if necessary.

Go to the location where the last capture note was stored.

Go to the target location of a capture template. The user is queried for the template.

Set org-capture-templates to be similar to org-remember-templates.

Abort the current capture process.

Mark the region that will have to be killed when aborting capture.

Is prop a property in org-capture-plist. When local is set, use the local variable org-capture-current-plist, this is necessary after initialization of the capture process, to avoid conflicts with other active capture processes.

Minor mode for special key bindings in a capture buffer.

Narrow, unless configuration says not to narrow.

Place the template as a new Org entry.

Place the template as a new plain list item.

Place the template plainly. If the target locator points at an Org node, place the template into the text of the entry, before the first child. If not, place the template at the beginning or end of the file. Of course, if exact position has been required, just put it there.

Place the template as a table line.

Insert the template at the target location, and display the buffer.

Memorize the position that should later become the position of last capture.

Add properties to the capture property list org-capture-plist.

Store the initial region with org-capture-put.

Finalize the current capture and then refile the entry. Refiling is done from the base buffer, because the indirect buffer is then already gone. Any prefix argument will be passed to the refile command.

Select a capture template. Lisp programs can force the template by setting keys to a string.

Initialize the property list from the template definition.

Find target buffer and position and store then in the property list.

Install Org-mode local variables.

Get a buffer for file.

Throw error if tree is not a valid tree
