latest change to diary-from-outlook

	* calendar/diary-lib.el (diary-from-outlook)
	(diary-from-outlook-gnus, diary-from-outlook-rmail): Do not use
	interactive-p; but rather new optional argument DONOTASK.

DONOTASK = do not ask
DONOTASK = do no task

??  :-)

Perhaps a better name would be NOCONFIRM ?

When I look at it out of the corner of my eye, it makes me think
"doughnut". Mmm, doughnuts.

Knock-on-firm? Whatever floats your boat.

I've never understood why Emacs is so concerned with conserving hyphens
in argument names.  It should be either DO-NOT-ASK or DO-NO-TASK.

And to anticipate: If the Lisp function is implemented in C, the C
variables could use underscores in place of the hyphens.
