Hello Carsten,

The new capture interface is really neat and I have the impression that it
will be even better in the future. Many Thanks!

I have only a few suggestions.
- It would be nice if "q" in the "choose template menu" quit the selection
  if the user did not assign any template to the "q" key.

Good idea, this works now.

- Using the option "empty-lines: 1" will add an empty line before the
  heading. I like to have an empty line after the end of the heading,
instead. I know that in most cases adding an empty line before the next
  heading will be equivalent, but when using datetree with the
"empty-lines: 1" option there will be an undesired empty line after the
  date three and the first heading added with the capture interface.

In a way I disagree here.  I you want empty lines, I think it makes
quite some sense to alway have them on both sides.  I guess we could
allow a value of '(1 0) for :empty-lines, but you need to rally some
support from others for this complication.

Not
  very important though.

:)

- At last, I frequently need to add a new line in a table in my main org file and the "table-line" entry type will be very useful. However for it to work I need a way to tell org-capture to add the filled information
  to a line relative to the end of the table. The table is in a form
  | Name   | Price |
  |--------+-------|
  | Item 1 |  1.30 |
  | Item 2 | 13.14 |
  |--------+-------|
  | Total  | 14.44 |
  #+TBLFM: @4$2=vsum(@address@hidden);%.2f
  I need a way to add the line after the line with "Item 2".

Yes, I think that makes sense. When you pull again, try to set the property

:table-line-pos "II-1"

for the template. This will tell org-capture to place the new line so that it becomes the first line before the second hline. That should do the trick, I think.


To be really
fantastic org could also evaluate all formulas in the table after that.

That was already the case. If the table has formulas, they are evaluated
(but not iterated...) when you finish the capture :)

Thanks for your input!

- Carsten
