Thanks!
I'm using a setup based on Bert Hansen's, so I think I'm already using this
feature and a new headline looks like that:
** new headline
[2014-08-19 Di 18:28]
however, my question is how I can search for this timestamp (I'm not sure if
it is always at the same line below the headline, as sometimes there is a
logbook inbetween) and calculate the difference to today in days and then
display that as a separate column
Kind regards
Martin
