Re: FR: date marking in calendar

Bastien,

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. My appointments are in org files are 
agenda are marked with a tag, so using diary as you suggested does not 
work exactly as I wished. But I was not even aware of the existence of 
org-diary and its usage, maybe I can find some other use of it later on.

Also, I did not see any calendar markings in my trial even with 
org-diary, but I suspect it might be because I ran emacs in a text 
terminal, not an X-window or Windows. I will try it later.
