Hi all,

I'm new to this list.

Thanks  to  Carsten (and to all  the  contributors) for this excellent
mode.

Seems I've  discovered a little bug (there's  an  easy workaround, see
below), but I'm not sure it's  org-mode fault: when I  try to insert a
time stamp (with C-c .), I can't select a date as explained in section
8.2.1 of the manual.  So I  just hit q to quit  the calendar frame and
enter a date by  hand in the minibuffer.   The time stamp is correctly
inserted in my org buffer, but then, as soon as I hit any key, I get a
"Symbol's  value  as variable is void:   displayed-month" error in the
minibuffer (even if I use mouse buttons).

This is because my calendar frame doesn't have a minibuffer. If I put
in my emacs init file :
  (setq calendar-and-diary-frame-parameters
        '((name . "Calendar") (title . "Calendar")
	  (height . 20) (width . 78)
	  (minibuffer . t)))
I get the normal behavior of C-c ., and no more displayed-month error.

What is the setup you are using to get the calendar in a separate frame?
Org-mode assumes that it is coming up in the *current* frame.

Do your really need to press q to get rid of the calendar?  Can't you
just type in the minibuffer of the other frame?

(setq
 calendar-and-diary-frame-parameters '((name . "Calendar")
				       (title . "Calendar")
				       (height . 40) (width . 78)
				       (minibuffer . t))
 calendar-setup 'one-frame)

OK. I didn't know that.

Indeed.  Actually, after C-c ., the calendar frame  is raised in order
to let me choose a  date.
  Then,  as explained  in  my preceding  post,  if my  setup allows  a
  minibuffer in the calendar frame, everything works according section
  8.2.1 of the manual (except selecting  a date with mouse-1, but it's
  Xemacs21 fault I guess).
  If there's no minibuffer in the calendar frame, I must type the date
  in the minibuffer  of the  other  frame (pressing  q to iconify  the
  calendar frame is just a matter of convenience:  no need to get back
  to the mouse) and then I get  that "displayed-month error" in my org
  buffer.

Again, it's not  really  a  problem: all  I  need  to  get the  proper
behavior is just to allow a minibuffer in the calendar frame.
