Title for capture template

Title for capture template

[Sébastien Vauban]

Hello,

I capture a lot of stuff with that template:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
("No" "Org" entry
 (file+headline "~/Public/Notes-on-Org.txt" "Notes")
 "* %^{Title}
   :PROPERTIES:
   :Created: %U
   :END:

%i

From %a"
:empty-lines 1)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

What I don't understand is that, sometimes, I can reuse (with the up arrow, in
the echo area) the title of the previous capture, sometimes not. Even when I
capture two articles *with the same template* at a couple of minutes
interval...

Unluckily, I still have no clue on how to reproduce this.

Best regards,
  Seb

I believe you can reuse after the second time you are
using the template in an Emacs session, but not after the first.
Seems like the history variable I am using needs to be
initialized first - I just pushed the fix for this.

Note that the history is prompt specific.  So all templates that
use a "%^{Title}" prompt will access the same
history.

That's a possible explanation. I'll update and report any future problem.

OK. Thanks.
