I've always used fancy-diary-display so, yes, I was assuming that the %d's would be expanded with their values with simple-diary-display and other functions like diary-sunrise-sunset and diary-phases-of-moon would likewise be evaluated and their output displayed. I guess that by thinking the ordinary language meanings of "simple" and "fancy" I misunderstood. So... it's one of those cases of "That's not a bug, it's a *feature*!" I'm curious now... why would anyone want to use the simple diary display...? And why is it the default? -- "It is not knowable how long that conflict would last, it could last, you know, six days, six weeks. I doubt six months." --Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, 2/7/03
