I revised the command to insert an ID, so that it also inserts the creating
date. Here's the new script:
"""Insert a node id/tomestamp string at the cursor."""
undoType = 'zettel-insert-id'
w = c.frame.body.wrapper
oldSel = w.getSelectionRange()
w.deleteTextSelection()
s = ':id: ' + p.gnx
id_label = f':id: {p.gnx}\n'
time_string = ':created: ' + c.getTime(body=True) + '\n'
i = w.getInsertPoint()
w.insert(i, f'{id_label}{time_string}')
c.frame.body.onBodyChanged(undoType, oldSel=oldSel)
Now to create a new node for a zettel, create a node, type in its name,
click the mouse in the body, and hit <ALT>-F8 (or bind it to any other key
you like). You get both the id line and a second line that starts with
:created:.
The headline of the node for this command in MyLeoSettings would be
@command zettel-insert-id @key=Alt+F8
