Hi, I'm using wanderlust to read and write emails in emacs. I wanted to use org-capture to add TODOs in my org files.
In org-capture-templates documentation there is a line talking about wanderlust (I think): vm, wl, mh, mew, rmail, | %:type %:subject %:message-id But I was unable to use %:type or %:whatever in my template to capture wanderlust messages. I found an org-rmail.el file in org-mode sources but I couldn't find org-wl.el and I assumed this is the reason why I can't use org-capture. I wrote an org-wl.el file based on org-rmail. you can find sources here: https://github.com/chep/org-wl Feel free to comment it and to use it if you want. ;;; org-wl.el --- Support for links to Wanderlust messages from within Org-mode ;; Copyright (C) 2014 Cédric Chépied <cedric.chep...@gmail.com> ;; Author: Cédric Chépied <cedric.chep...@gmail.com> ;; Keywords: org, wanderlust, link ;; Homepage: http://orgmode.org ;; ;; This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify ;; it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by ;; the Free Software Foundation; either version 2, or (at your option) ;; any later version. ;; This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, ;; but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of ;; MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
