Hi all,

to practically prevent merge conflicts between the different machines
that I use I want to capture new items not directly under the global
"Inbox" headline, but under "Inbox/$HOSTNAME".

For example, I often capture new items on my desktop and my notebook
and later sync.  The new items will always conflict as they are placed as
last child of "Inbox".

I now switched my org-remember templates from statically specifying
"Inbox" as target headline to a helper function:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

(defun my-host-name ()
  "Returns the name of the current host minus the domain."
  (let ((hostname (downcase (system-name))))
    (save-match-data
      (substring hostname (string-match "^[^.]+" hostname) (match-end 0)))))

(defun my-org-remember-headline ()
  (concatenate 'string "Inbox/" (my-host-name)))

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The problem now is that I would like the target to be:

* Inbox
*** $HOSTNAME
***** new item

Instead, I get this:

* Inbox/$HOSTNAME
*** new items

My question now is how to specify the headline hierarchy here?

Cheers,
Martin
