I take a lot of notes using MobileOrg in my phone, and after syncing, they
go into in.org (my gtd "in basket"). From there, I do the capturing process.
Thing is, sometimes there's a *lot* of notes that I just want to refile to
the "Notes" subtree from the corresponding project/context. A quick way to
do that would be nice.
My idea was to use the org-speed-commands-user to have a single key to
press for each category of note. I'd add entries like
("Q" (my/org-refile-to-id <ID of Notes-subtree from project Q> "TODO")
("W" (my/org-refile-to-id <ID of Notes-subtree from project W> "DONE")
("E" (my/org-refile-to-id <ID of Notes-subtree from project E> "")
At first, I tried using org-refile, but couldn't find a way to tell it to
refile to a specific subtree (eg, using its id).
Then I started hackstumbling around. So far, what I could come up with was:
(defun my/org-refile-to-id (id &optional todo)
"Refile current subtree to subtree with ID."
(interactive
(list (read-string "ID: ")))
(when todo (org-todo todo))
(org-cut-subtree)
(let ((anchor (ignore-errors (org-id-get-create))))
(org-id-goto id)
(org-insert-heading-respect-content)
(org-demote-subtree)
(org-yank)
(exchange-point-and-mark)
(zap-to-char 1 (string-to-char " "))
(move-beginning-of-line nil)
(if anchor
(org-id-goto anchor)
(message "This was the last one."))))
It feels kinda messy, though.
Any advice would be more than welcome!
