You can examine the definition of an ELisp function by: 1. typing C-h f whilst on a function; 2. typing RET to take you to the documentation for that function; 3. typing TAB then RET to take you to the function definition. Starting with point on `org-calendar-holiday`, we find that: - `org-calendar-holiday` calls (if available) `calendar-check-holidays` or (otherwise) `check-calendar-holidays`; - `calendar-check-holidays` calls `calendar-holiday-list`; - `calendar-holiday-list` makes use of the `calendar-holidays` variable. We can examine the documentation for the `calendar-holidays` variable by moving point onto and typing C-h v RET. On my setup (manually compiled Emacs 24.4.1 on Debian Wheezy(+updates) x86_64 together with Org 20150223), the documentation suggests that `calendar-holidays` makes use of the `holiday-local-holidays` variable; and the documentation for `holiday-local-holidays` merely refers us back to the documentation for `calendar-holidays`. When i scroll down to look at the current value of `calendar-holidays`, however, i see that neither the current value nor the original value makes any reference to the `holiday-local-holidays` variable.

It is also not a documentation bug, at least in my emacs (25.0.50.1) the documentation of calendar-holidays says clearly: "Note that these variables [`holiday-other-holidays', `holiday-general-holidays', `holiday-local-holidays', `holiday-christian-holidays', `holiday-hebrew-holidays', `holiday-islamic-holidays', `holiday-bahai-holidays', `holiday-oriental-holidays' and `holiday-solar-holidays'] have no effect on `calendar-holidays' after it has been set (e.g. after the calendar is loaded).

The aforementioned variables control the holiday choices offered by the function `holiday-list' when it is called interactively.

But in fact in does not work. holidays.el appends holiday-local-holidays to calendar-holidays via a defcustom, so if you set holiday-local-holidays in your .emacs, restart emacs and the local holidays are not in calendar-holidays, it is because you are calling something that loads holidays.el before you set holiday-local-holidays. If you add the code above to your .emacs and later modify your configuration and remove or move the part that loads holidays.el, then either your code will fail (because calendar-holidays is not yet defined) or calendar-holidays will have your local holidays twice and they will show twice in your agenda. I think that you should look for whatever calls holidays.el and set holiday-local-holidays before that. If not, then at least use eval-after-load so that calendar-holidays is already defined when the code is run, and add-to-list so that the entries do not get added twice if they are already there: #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (eval-after-load 'holidays '(dolist (holiday holiday-local-holidays) (add-to-list 'calendar-holidays holiday)) #+END_SRC Best, -- Jorge. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 16+ messages in thread
