I tried the following: : $ emacsclient -t -e "(progn (org-capture) (delete-frame))" which /sort of/ works: it brings up capture, allows me to type in various bits of the capture template (like headline and tags, if requested) but then quits immediately (and deletes the frame) when org is supposed to give me a chance to add to the entry I have created. So this is a halfway point to a solution to your problem maybe? -- : Eric S Fraga (GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D) in Emacs 23.2.1 : using Org-mode version 7.3 (release_7.3.78.g9b811) _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
