RE: [emacs-wiki-discuss] planner-id locks up emacs

[mirko.vukovic]

Here is progress so far.

I am still using my full emacs startup.  I typically maintain a separate emacs 
session for the planner, and another for other day-to-day work.

>From experiments so far, if I have (require 'planner-id) in my .emacs, emacs

>everything works fine.

Tomorrow morning, instead of quitting the planner session, I will try to 
unload-feature planner-id before trying M-x plan.

Following previous suggestions, this morning I did toggle-debugger-on-break.  
The debugger output from these morning's adventures is attached.


The planner relevant portion of my .emacs file is:

(setq muse-mode-auto-p t)
(when (and (locate-library "planner")
               (locate-library "muse"))
      (setq planner-project "WikiPlans")
      (setq planner-directory "~/.plans")
      (setq planner-default-page "TaskPool")
      ;; Tell muse about planner.  We use add-hook instead of
      ;; add-to-list because muse might not be loaded yet.
      (add-hook 'muse-project-alist
                (list planner-project
                      (list planner-directory
                            :default planner-default-page
                            :major-mode 'planner-mode
                            :visit-link 'planner-visit-link))))
;;(require 'planner-id) ;; necessary for task id's
(require 'planner-cyclic)
;; http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-wiki-discuss/2005-11/msg00326.html
(setq muse-file-extension nil)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.muse$" . muse-mode))

Awaiting further opinions and suggestions,

Mirko

Hmm,

now it is not locking up.  I will keep testing it, and let you know when 
something comes up.

Thanks,

Mirko

If you do M-x toggle-debug-on-quit, and then M-x plan, you should be
able to quit the lock up with C-g. You will get a backtrace, which
will most likely indicate what is going wrong.
