Bug: org-clocktable-write-default fails to display properties [9.0.7 (9.0.7-elpaplus @ /home/fvaresi/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20170515/)]

[Fernando Varesi]

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to create a clocktable with the following header:

#+BEGIN: clocktable :scope file-with-archives :tstart "2017-05-17 14:00" :tend "<now>" :link t :fileskip0 t :properties ("TODO")

This should display every item with the TODO label (which was removed from headline in a recent release). However, the column is empty.

Doing some debugging I found out that org-clock-get-table-data does return the required properties. However, the default formatter (org-clocktable-write-default) fails to display it.

I think the problem is in line 2596:

	  ;; Get the list of node entries and iterate over it
	  (when (> maxlevel 0)
	    (pcase-dolist (`(,level ,headline ,ts ,time . ,props) entries)

Removing the . solves the issue, but I'm not sure what's the purpose of it. Any clues on the best way to fix this?

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Fernando.

This fix was already done in development branch. Since this is
a frequent request these day, I cherry-picked it onto maint branch.
