Remember integration

Remember integration

[Russell Adams]

Is there a way to override the 'remember files requires a headline'
requirement?

I'd like to have a remember template that just appends the template to
a file. In this case I'm using a remember template to try and create a
ledger entry for expenses. It is not an org file.

Using remember is the right place to do it (ie: in place fast data
entry for later), but the org integration is forcing file validation.

Thanks.

Hi Russel,

remember-handler-functions is a hook that can contain several  
functions.  The first function that returns non-nil is assumed to have  
done the work, so the other ons are not called.

You can do

   (setq remember-handler-functions '(my-ledger-function org-remember- 
handler))

and let the first function do the work for ledger entries.   It needs  
to have a way to identify the corresponding buffer - if that is non- 
trivial, then your template can leave some special text that will be  
removed by my-ledger-fuction before appending the content to a file.
