I can't figure out what kind of variable is returned and how I can extract "somecategory" into a string from it. (org-get-category (point)) ; evaluating gives me the output below #("somecategory" 0 12 (fontified t font-lock-fontified t face org-meta-line org-category "property-test")) Thanks for any guidance. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
