org-capture
Table of Contents
org-capture is one exceptional feature of org-mode, allowing capturing thoughts and notes from anywhere pressing only 1 keybinding.
1. system-wide capture
I have a system-wide keybinding configured in KDE systemsettings, that start an emacsclient process evaluating a function that spawns a new frame, call org-capture, and delete the frame after org-capture is finished
2. Browser capture
I do browser capture with org capture extension:
- complete the instructions in git readme
- in add-ons manager > manage add-on shortcuts, set org capture extension’s short cut to
C-1my firefox shortcuts - when I see a good site, I do

my GTD integration
(capture)
90% of the cases I use org-capture to capture some random thoughts I had over the day into capture.org. For real-life observations and reading thoughts, I use emacs; for internet sources, I use org-capture extension in firefox.
Sometimes I also put stuff in sketchbook and voice memo.
