Function for adding days

Function for adding days

[weber]

Hello folks,

can anyone point me to a function that would allow me to calculate
what date will it be, for example, 10 days from now? calendar is kinda
big and i'm having trouble to find something like that...

Thanks in advance,
Hugo

Have a look at calendar-absolute-from-gregorian and
calendar-gregorian-from-absolute.

Are you looking for function or the functionality?
Try org-mode.

(format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d" (time-add (days-to-time 10) (current-time)))
