Following an earlier thread I am trying to get a remember template to
immediately save and then jump to the stored location. My template looks
like:

("Journal" ?j "* %^U :DIARY:\n\n  %i%&\n  %!"
"~/nfs/firewall/Documents/org/journal.org")

The problem is that the %& gets inserted literally in the saved note and
emacs doesn't jump to the target. I have experimented with placing %& in
different positions in the template with similar results. Can someone
point out what silly thing I am doing wrong?

I am using emacs 22.1.1 and org 6.03.

Ian.
