Yes I did. I'll copy paste the answer.
(defun insert-new-entry ()
(interactive)
(save-excursion
(goto-char (point-max))
(print "Asti")
(define-key calendar-mode-map (kbd "RET") 'get-date)
(calendar)
(let* ((x (calendar-cursor-to-date))
(time (encode-time 0 0 0 (nth 1 x) (nth 0 x) (nth 2 x))))
(select-window (get-buffer-window "asti" t))
(insert (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d" time)))))
I didn't yet use the `calendar-mode-map`. Too tired. But I'm confident
that it'll work.
So now I have all the pieces ;))))
Thanks you so much Emanuel, Yuri and Drew!!
P.S. I got this from org-read-date ;)
