org-capture + autoload

org-capture + autoload

[Jambunathan K]

It would be convenient if I could do a 

M-x customize-group org-capture and/or 
M-x customize-variable org-capture-templates

without having triggered a prior org-capture.

For now, I trigger a capture, abort it and then proceed ahead with
customizing these.

Ok. I need to do a C-c c C. 

It was sitting right there in front my eyes waiting to be noticed. I
erred because I didn't expect to see something in the capture templates
which I have not entered myself.

That said, it would be convenient to have the variable customized the
standard way. Some habits die hard.

Just (require 'org-capture) somewhere in your config.

Add

(require 'org-capture)

to your .emacs

I was wondering whether the symbol could be 'autoloaded' just as the
org-capture defun is autoloaded.

The org-capture file is autoloaded now the first time you use it ... and
you want the definitions before you use it so you need to load it
explicitly first -- which is what the above require does I think.

I'm not aware of anything like that for symbols but I'm not an emacs
lisp expert by any means.

Here is a patch that adds an "autoload cookie" for
org-capture-templates.  After recompiling, org-install.el should contain
an autoload declaration for org-capture-templates.

Let's see if the patch tracker likes me :)
