You can bind this to a key. Or if you would like always to jump to a capture item after filing it, you can add a hook: (add-hook 'org-capture-after-finalize-hook 'org-capture-goto-last-stored) > 4.

You can use the "plain" entry type. For instance, here's a template that puts the selected region in a quote environment in the file ~/searches.tex. --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (add-to-list 'org-capture-templates '("x" "Random note" plain (file "~/searches.tex") "\\begin{quote}\n%i\n\\end{quote}")) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Best, Matt _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
