org-roam-dailies-goto-today in other window?

`org-roam-dailies-goto-today` opens todays journal in the current window, but I'd prefer to open it in on other-window. Internally this command uses `org-capture-goto-target`: (defun org-capture-goto-target (&optional template-key) "Go to the target location of a capture template. If TEMPLATE-KEY is nil, the user is queried for the template." (interactive) (let ((entry (org-capture-select-template template-key))) (unless entry (error "No capture template selected")) (org-capture-set-plist entry) (org-capture-set-target-location) (pop-to-buffer-same-window (org-capture-get :buffer)) (goto-char (org-capture-get :pos)))) taken from `org-capture.el` As you can see it says `pop-to-buffer-same-window`, not other window. Any workaround for this? ## Edit: Here's my workaround (defun ugt-org-roam-dailies-goto-today nil "Open todays journal in other window." (interactive) (split-window-right) (other-window 1) (org-roam-dailies-goto-today))

Try the C-x 4 4 prefix.

add `:around` advice for `org-capture-goto-target` and using `cl-letf` redefine `pop-to-buffer-same-window` to use `switch-to-buffer-other-window` instead. I'm using Doom, therefore I'd use `defadvice!` macro, it would be something like this: (defadvice! org-capture-goto-target-a (fn &rest args) :around #'org-capture-goto-target (cl-letf (((symbol-function pop-to-buffer-same-window) #'switch-to-buffer-other-window)) (apply fn args))) Basically, it says: "whenever `org-capture-goto-target` is called, instead of executing `pop-to-buffer-same-window` defined in window.el, make it execute my thing..." In this particular case it just calls `switch-to-buffer-other-window`. But it can be for example a lambda. Just make sure that your function and the function you're overriding use the same number of arguments. Now, I understand that for someone who's not seasoned in Elisp, there's a lot to unpack. But I promise you, this technique is outrageously useful and understanding the concepts makes you see why Emacs is absurdly extensible. - `defadvice!` macro comes packed in the core-lib of Doom Emacs. There are a few useful macros there, but if you're not using Doom, it still trivial to advice functions. - `org-capture-goto-target-a` is a function that macro would create, by convention you usually would add `-a` to the name of the function being advised. - `:around` is a so called advice combinator, you can learn about them [here](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Advice-Combinators.html) - `cl-letf` is one of the ways of overriding a symbol; there are a few different ways for that, this [Stackoverflow Post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39550578/in-emacs-what-is-the-difference-between-cl-flet-and-cl-letf) nicely explains the differences. You may want to bookmark it - note the arguments passed into the macro - `fn` in this case, is specific to `:around` combinator, denoting the original function. *I know this all may still feel confusing, let me know if something is unclear, I'd glady try to explain further.*
