Holidays command

Holidays command

[Robin Green]

I tried using the H key in the agenda to see what it did, and got this
error message:

org-agenda-execute-calendar-command: Wrong type argument: commandp,
list-calendar-holidays

I'm using org-mode 6.31.

I think you did not activate the calendar-diary integration
as suggested in the manual:

10.3.1 The weekly/daily agenda

(setq org-agenda-include-diary t)

did you?

Please, read the entire subsection and 
consider /not/ doing that ;-) 

cheers,

Giovanni

Fair enough, I didn't. But I think a more user-friendly error
message should be shown. It's normal to want to explore a
program in this way.

I think that Carsten will be only happy if a 
patch is provided. <hint> :-)

Well I think that everything depends on the 
idea of 'normality' that everyone has. ;-)

In my opinion it is normal  ;-)
to read the manual *before* playing with a software.
  Or it is normal /at least/ to search the manual,
when an error occurs, before asking to the ml.

This was my normal ;-) way, when I skimmed  
the manual to answer to your question:

C-h i         (to get the info manual)
C-s Org-mod    (to jump to Org-mode manual)  [1]
RET 
C-s hol       6 times until I reached the word
              "holiday" in ch 10.3.1

   [1] this could be avoided with 
       (info (org-mode)) C-x C-e

cheers,
Giovanni

I have org-agenda-include-diary nil and H still works for me in the
agenda.  Can you provide a backtrace of the error?
