### 9.1 Capture

Capture lets you quickly store notes with little interruption of your work flow. Org’s method for capturing new items is heavily inspired by John Wiegley excellent `remember.el` package. Up to version 6.36, Org used a special setup for `remember.el`, then replaced it with `org-remember.el`. As of version 8.0, `org-remember.el` has been completely replaced by `org-capture.el`.

If your configuration depends on `org-remember.el`, you need to update it and use the setup described below. To convert your `org-remember-templates`, run the command

    M-x org-capture-import-remember-templates RET

and then customize the new variable with `M-x customize-variable org-capture-templates`, check the result, and save the customization.
