Yes, it indeed depend on the expanding-order. Yesterday, I tried a workaround. I moved ":Added: %u \n :END:" from "~/.contact" to "~/.emacs", which makes the new template in org-remember-templates as ("Contact" ?c "* %^{Name} \n%[~/.contact] :Added: %u \n :END:" "contact.org" "Contacts") But then I found that the content of the file "~/.contact" was not inserted at all. *Maybe this is a bug.* I added "\n" before ":Added:": ("Contact" ?c "* %^{Name} \n%[~/.contact]\n :Added: %u \n :END:" "contact.org" "Contacts") then it did the work, but the result was not perfect. > > However, I can see that it could be nice to define the templates > in a separate file like you do - so I have changed the sequence now. > File insertion happens first, so that this should now work (untested). > > HTH > > - Carsten > > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > > Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > > Emacs-orgmode <at> gnu.org > > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode > > - Carsten > > _______________________________________________ > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > Emacs-orgmode <at> gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode > > _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
