Do you have some example or a pointer or so. I don't know even how to
start.
A caveat - I am slowly learning lisp - of any kind - and I have not
programmed in over 45 years (college).
See the attached files - one is a template for entering data into a
recfile and the other is a sample of how I use some of the data in that
recfile. I also have a couple of remote-descriptors so that I don't have
reinvent the wheel for every recfile.
Originally I set up an org capture template and switched modes for
entries into a refile, but this was not a "good" solution. In the
recutils list I mentioned org capture and perhaps it could be modified
to recutils, but I never sent Jose a use case.

Could you provide me a link, please?
