[emacs-wiki-discuss] planner-diary broken

[Jody Klymak]

Hi all,

planner-diary broke in the last couple of days.  First, I do not have
a "* Schedule" in my buffer.  Now I get a backtrace on M-x plan that
starts out: 

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

  Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Cannot insert schedule/appts,
  no schedule section in this buffer.")  signal(error ("Cannot insert
  schedule/appts, no schedule section in this buffer."))
  error("Cannot insert schedule/appts, no schedule section in this
  buffer.")

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Maybe that should exit more gracefully then on an error (I think the same
can be said for not having * Diary in your file)?

Anyways, I added * Schedule to my daily page and tried again.

This time I get
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable
  planner-diary-exclude-regexp) (let* ((regexp
  planner-diary-exclude-regexp) (no-of-days
  planner-diary-number-of-diary-entries) (init-entries ...)
  (end-entries ...)) (mapconcat (quote eval) (delete-duplicates ...
  :test ...) "\n")) (save-window-excursion (let* (... ... ... ...)
  (mapconcat ... ... "\n"))) planner-diary-get-entries((3 27 2004)
  appt) planner-diary-get-appt-entries((3 27 2004))

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Un-commenting the defcustom where this is defined fixes the problem.  

The root of the problem is that there does not seem to be a mechanism
for *not* having * Schedule in my buffer.  I do not want a *
Schedule in my buffer, and it'd be nice if this could be an option.  

Thanks,  Jody
