I noticed the following regarding
org-remember-backup-directory:
1) auto-saving does not save contents
- solution: put (auto-save-mode 1) before or after (not
sure which) the call to org-set-local in the
following lines in org-remember:
# (expand-file-name
# (format-time-string "remember-%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S")
# org-remember-backup-directory))
# (save-buffer)
# (org-set-local 'auto-save-visited-file-name t))
# (when (save-excursion
2) save-buffer is called before there are any contents
- this causes files without useful content to stick
around in the dir if the buffer is killed or
something.
- solution: don't save the buffer; let auto-saving do
that work. will this work?
3) if you have auto-save-file-name-transforms set,
auto-saving is done according to that variable instead
of saving in place.
- solution: is this an emacs bug? i am not sure. the
auto-saving should be done in place, saving in
org-remember-backup-directory and not saving in the
place where the transforms variable tells it to save.
perhaps each user can kludge transforms or perhaps
emacs needs fixing? i have reached debugging ability
limit.
Thanks.

Usually, the template expansion will have filled in stuff like
links and initial contents, so I would prefer to keep the
save-buffer here and let the user deal with the extra files.

I am now turning that variable off, locally in the remember buffer.
Does that fix the problem?

Yes, it works well in my limited testing.
However, dired-find-file does not work on the file. It seems that it
thinks there is no buffer visiting it even though there is one.
Thanks.

I found another bug. After an auto-save happens, if you change the
remember buffer, then do org-remember-finalize, emacs will complain
that remember-... has changed since you last saved it. If you then
run do-auto-save and try to save it, it works.
A workaround would be to put (do-auto-save) in org-remember-finalize.
That would work perfectly, but feels kludgey. Perhaps there is a way
to turn off checking for changes.
Thanks.

I don't seem to be able to reproduce this.

Seems OK so far in newest git. Will monitor.
Thanks.

The bug still exists.
To reproduce, run emacs -Q --load <the minimal setup below>, remember
a task, make enough changes to trigger do-auto-save, then c-x c-s. It
should tell you it has changed and ask if you want to save.
You will have to set 3 env vars for dirs of your choice.
I didn't want to risk making dirs for you.
(require 'cl)
(defun alpha-add-path (p) (setq load-path (cons p load-path)))
(alpha-add-path (concat (getenv "delorgsrc") "/lisp"))

I am still unable to reproduce this.
Anyone?

Strange that it is not reproducible even with the minimal startup.
It happens to me every time I save a remember that is long enough to
trigger auto-save.

If org-remember-finalize
(when buffer-file-name
(save-buffer))
is only for org-remember-directory purposes, then perhaps running
do-auto-save instead of save-buffer will fix the bug.
Thanks.
