It would also be nice if you could remove the deadline or scheduled value using the same interface so it could be logged. For example, with scheduled I might decide to do a certain task next week, and schedule the task accordingly. Then, something changes and I'm now not going to do the task anytime soon. It shouldn't be scheduled and I don't want it to show up in the agenda anymore. It seems like adding an option to the date/time prompt to null out the value works, but is this the right approach? When you do this you end up with items with "SCHEDULED:" or "DEADLINE:" and no date after them. These items don't show in the agenda, but it seems a little ugly. -- Paul Holcomb *pholcomb \@ cpoint net* GPG key fingerprint 2B62 05AE EE74 845A 705F D716 28C4 FE1C 088F CFAC
