Here is the problem: It looks like (setq calendar-setup one-frame) is the nice popup I was looking for. Here is the minimal (temporary) .emacs that causes the problem: [-debug-init errors follow] (defconst diary-display-hook 'fancy-diary-display) (setq calendar-setup 'one-frame) (calendar) I'll likely solve this, by just removing (defconst diary-display-hook 'fancy-diary-display) The remaining issue, is that I'd like to display the calendar, diary and (future only) holidays all in one frame. Currently, holidays display in a separate frame. I'm not sure how to get appt.el working. I read the C-h f help for appt-check, but nothing happened. Perhaps I don't know what I should expect to happen. Here is the results of emacs -debug-init: Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument listp fancy-diary-display) byte-code("S(Æ!ÇÈ!^É !^ÊËÌ !\"AÍ=f
