If you are wiling to  write lisp code, you can already do this, by  
putting

a list with only one template temporarily into org-remember-templates,
like this:

(let ((org-remember-templates
   ("Task" 116 "* TODO %?\n  %u" "~/org/gtd.org" "Tasks")))
  (call-interactively 'org-remember))

When there is only a single template in the list, Org-mode will actually
skip the query for the template and execute it right away.

So yes, you can write a function that does built a template on the fly.

Hope this helps

I think my suggestion doesn't fit orgmode that well, but what if
'org-remember' had 'template' as an optonal argument? (instead of
pulling from org-remember-template interactively).

Then people could write their own menus/keymap/etc before calling remember.

remember from Anything)

Hello again!

I love all of the options that are available for inclusion in remember
templates.  I've got templates for the kinds of tasks I create most
often.  But sometimes I find myself saying "man, I wish I could just
tack a %^G onto this template", or something similar.  These aren't  
task

types that I use often enough to justify giving them their own
templates, but I still want to have access to the features offered in
remember templates.

Would it be possible to build a single-use remember template through
prompts at the minibuffer?



I am not yet convinced about how useful this would be.

First of all, "slapping on a %^G" means adding tags.  Since you
probably have %? in the headline of the template anyway, adding tags
is as simple as C-c C-c Ahm, no you are right it is not, because  
we are

in a remember buffer after all.

Still, just adding % sequences does not really do it because
you still need to decide where the info should go.  So in the end, it
seems to me the the gain will be very minor.  Any other opinions?
