As in that above case `general-holidays' is supposed to be function as
it comes first in the list.
Maybe you wish to inspect if such function exists by doing:
{C-h f general-holidays RET}
And if it does not exist, it will not work.
I can see that variable `holiday-general-holidays' exists.
To nullify the variable you can do:
(setq holiday-general-holidays nil)
You may also use the {M-:} to open up prompt for evaluations.
For example:
{M-: holiday-general-holidays RET}
And you may see there are some values under that variable. In the next
step you may evaluate nullify it:
{M-: (setq holiday-general-holidays nil) RET}
and then verify again what is the value of variable:
{M-: holiday-general-holidays RET}
Any time you wish to find out if variable exists I suggest that you
use {C-h v}
> (local-holidays nil)
> (christian-holidays nil)
> (hebrew-holidays nil)
> (islamic-holidays nil)
^
I do suggest using completion package ivy, you may install it with:
{M-x package-install RET ivy RET}
as it is more visual when searching for variables.
If I have ivy installed and I bring cursor to above `islamic-holidays'
then I can just press {C-h v} and `ivy' will show me completion and
locate the highlighted line on the variable if such variable
exists. If it does not exists I will get first item highlighted.
Otherwise if you use the built-in Emacs completion and you press
{C-h v} to search for variable then I recommend using `*' joker
character to search for variables.
Let us say you search for something containing "islamic", you would
do:
{C-h v *islamic TAB TAB}
Then you get the list such as:
Possible completions are:
calendar-islamic-all-holidays-flag
diary-islamic-entry-symbol
holiday-islamic-holidays
and you can find out which variable exist related to "islamic" and
inspect such variables.
