logbook file?

logbook file?

[Lawrence Bottorff]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 386 bytes --]

So I can add a logbook entry to my org file with C-c C-z and it goes into a
logbook drawer on that file. Is there a way to associate that entry with an
external file? That is, can I have all logbook entries automatically be
written to, say, a logbook.org file. Or, is there a quick way to simply
tangle out all logbook entries?

Isn't there something similar with a notes.org file?

nothing is built into org for this.

you would have to define the mapping from the entry to the logbook.
or you could specify one entry to be your global logbook.

you might be thinking of

org-default-notes-file is a variable defined in `org.el'.
Original value was "~/.notes"

that is unrelated to logbook.  however, you could commandeer that
mechanism if you wanted.

the word notes is used ambiguously.

example of commandeering that mechanism would be to create notes in this format:

Hi,

How about using Org-Capture [1] for this?

You can have an entry like this on your templates:

("l" "Logbook" entry (file+datetree "~/org/logbook.org")
	 "* %?\nEntered on %U  %i\n"))

which would add an entry at the logbook.org file, under a date-time
tree, using the current date.

Cheers,
Georgios
