Improved the regular expression to permit multiple tags of letters,
numbers, underscores, and at signs.
: (defun org-datetree-find-year-create (year)
: (let ((re "^\\*+[ \t]+\\([12][0-9][0-9][0-9]\\)[
\t]*\\(:[[:alnum:address@hidden)*:*[ \t]*$")
: match)
I've tested with the following headlines:
- 2013
- both with and without trailing spaces
- 2013 :abc:
- 2013 :abc123:
- 2013 :abc123:_underscore:@attaboy::
- 2013 :noexport:
Any comments on the regular expression are welcome before I make patch.
