It seems that describe-variable isn't printing the variable structure
the way it really is, so then when you try to evaluate it, it doesn't
work. Note that according to the docstring:
#+BEGIN_QUOTE
This is a list of cons cells. Each cell contains:
- a specification of the files to be considered, either a list of files,
or a symbol...
- A specification of how to find candidate refile targets. This may be
any of:
...
- a cons cell (:regexp . "REGEXP") with a regular expression matching
headlines that are refiling targets.
#+END_QUOTE
So the variable is a list, which should contain at least one cons cell,
and the cons cells should have another cons cell as their cdrs.
Try this, it seems to work for me:
(let ((org-refile-targets '((org-agenda-files . (:regexp . "Tasks")))))
(org-refile))
This is one advantage of the customize system: it makes it harder to get
these structures wrong. :)
