Suppose you want to write the parent directory name in your capture so write a
template like
"* %(file-name-nondirectory (directory-file-name (file-name-directory \"%F\")))"
Without the patch, file-name-directory get the useless string "%F"
instead of a string
with the full path name of the file.
The orgmode manual template expansion page describe
%(sexp) Evaluate Elisp sexp and replace with the result.
For convenience, %:keyword (see below) placeholders
within the expression will be expanded prior to this.
The sexp must return a string.
But without the patch is not true, first is expanded %(sexp) and after
that the %OneLetter and later the %:keyword
Thanks for your work at the awesome orgmode.
