Subject: Insert link to recently captured Note?
Date: Wed, 13 Oct 2010 01:29:25 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTikdw1EH-xejLTvozyDsvgXpnhaOJtFC0rYVTG+6@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I'd like to ask the mailing list how they handle the following situation:
I'm clocked into FOO below, then spend about 20 minutes on something
that's somewhat
related to FOO, but is not really a direct sub-task of FOO, so I
probably want to refile it later.
So, I open org-capture and create some notes about * BAR, and file it away.
Now, I'm back in * FOO and want to quickly put a note about * BAR in
my FOO task.
So, ideally my structure would look like this:
---------------------- some file ----------------------------
* FOO
Got caught up with [[link to * BAR]]
-------------------------- notes.org ------------------------
* BAR
blew 30 minutes on this problem.
I might file this headline somewhere, but I want to be able to link from * FOO
to this new note
I've found variables like org-capture-bookmark-last-stored-position,
but I think that it
contains just the filename (like notes.org). What I probably need is
a way to create an ID
for the newly captured heading, and then store a link to it on the
clipboard or something.
Does anyone else have a need for this, or do this in their everyday work?
I know there's ways to create a link from * BAR (the new note) to *
FOO (the origin/context)
but I want an easy way to insert a link to * FOO to * BAR. Also, the
link needs to work no matter
where I file * BAR later on, so I presume that a unique ID needs to be
created for * BAR
when I capture it.
Thanks for any advice,
--Nate
