Therefore, the uninstall hook > installed in `kill-hook-buffer' removes your function before it is > actually used. that's it! your guess is right! Seems that is what is going on! The function in `kill-buffer-hook' was to remove `th:filing-attach-mv-hook' when capture buffer was killed with C-c C-k. Is there another way to execute lisp code when capture buffer is killed with C-c C-k? I could alter `kill-buffer-hook' globally, but then if another buffer is killed while capture buffer still is there the function is also removed. Hmm ... - I have to think it over maybe I find a solution for that. Anyway thanks a lot for the pointer! -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards Thomas
