The only thing that I still didn't get is how to configure the org-refile-targets variable, I tried doing like this:

(setq org-refile-targets 5)

But it throws an error. What is the correct param for that? Also, how could I ask emacs the correct param for a specific var?

Thanks!

Marcelo.

Ah, I got it. I had Ctrl+1..2 to switch desktops configured in gnome, that's why it was not being captured by emacs. It is working now. Thank you!

Hi Mat, thanks for replying,


Yes, as the instructions at the top of the remember button indicate, you
can use C-1 C-c C-c to "select file and header location interactively."
If you want this as the default action, you can set
org-remember-store-without-prompt to t.

I tried the C-1 C-c C-c key combo but it is not working -- emacs doesn't seem to caputre the first key combo -- C-1.

Also, I have set org-remember-store-without-prompt to t using set-variable, but couldn't see any difference. Could you give me an example of the workflow or how to properly configure it?

I have org-mode version 6.26trans (directly from the git repo, as a submodule).

Thank you!

Marcelo.

Check out the variable org-refile-targets. You can indicate how many
levels deep you want to be able to refile.

Again, check out the variable org-refile-targets.

Are you perhaps using an older version of org-mode (version 4.xx)? If
so, you need to update to a more recent version to get these features.
