It includes four choices: ## Multi A *multi* is a folder. Selecting it lets you create a folder to group other choices into. It's also the least useful unless you have enough choices that you really need the organization. ## Template A *template* lets you create a new note according to a specified template. ## Capture A *capture* choice lets you add text to a file without opening it or leaving the file you're on. ## Macro A *macro* choice is a combination of two or more choices of different types.
