Hi Ken,
If you do <C-u C-c .> you will get an active timestamp with date and
time. <C-u C-c !> will give you an inactive timestamp with date and time.
I also have this code in my .emacs file, so whenever I create a headline
I get an inactive timestamp automatically. It should be easy to change
to get an active timestamp if you want.
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
;Creating new headlines insert inactive timestamps automatically
(defun bh/insert-inactive-timestamp ()
(interactive)
(org-insert-time-stamp nil t t nil nil nil))
(defun bh/insert-heading-inactive-timestamp ()
(save-excursion
(org-return)
(org-cycle)
(bh/insert-inactive-timestamp)))
(add-hook 'org-insert-heading-hook 'bh/insert-heading-inactive-timestamp)
;-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enjoy!

Hello all,
I am a relative newbie to org-mode. Right now I use it for todo lists, I
use it in conjunction with the diary, and I use it for
journaling/note-taking. I am sure I am only using it fo a quarter or
less of what it can be used for. Anyway, my question is rather simple.
<CTRL-.> will allow you to insert a date. However, in my journal I use a
full timestamp. Is there any way using a defined set of keys to insert a
current TIMESTAMP on an entry (say as in a journal entry)?
Thank you
Ken
