Dear Orgers,
https://gitlab.com/marcowahl/hack-time is a little tool to forge the
`current-time' in Emacs. This allows to mark todo-items done
conveniently at another date.
Maybe you want to play with that time forgery.
Comments welcome, as always.
Best regards
Marco

Here I was, hoping it was a tool to *actually* hack time.
You know, M-x tardis-mode.

The Doctor worked on this IIRC. If you notice weird behavior on your
machine, you can be sure that the mode will have been released.

I gave it a quick spin. The first thing that struck me was sadness at
not finding an elpa package :-(
Anyway, I obtained it from its repo and I positioned calendar on 7th of
February, and invoked it on an entry I forgot to mark as done yesterday.
This is the result:
,----
| ** TODO Practice guitar
| SCHEDULED: <2017-02-08 Wed ++1d/3d>
| :PROPERTIES:
| :STYLE: habit
| :LAST_REPEAT: [2017-02-08 Tue 12:01]
| :END:
| :LOGBOOK:
| - State "DONE" from "TODO" [2017-02-07 Tue 11:55] \\
`----
Note that:
- new scheduled time is correct
- logbook entry is correct
- LAST_REPEAT property is *incorrect*; I expect this too to be

You are right, I think. I'll propose the hack-time code soon as elpa
package. Possibly in the form of a minor mode. You are invited to
contribute to the realization as package.

Yes. I also noticed the issue with LAST_REPEAT. I should have told in
the announcement that 'hack-time' depends on the Org 'master' branch
since about two weeks to handle LAST_REPEAT reliably.
Unfortunately 'hack-time' in its current form is not strong enough to
hack ANY time in Emacs. Up to now 'hack-time' only applies to elisp
code when it calls 'current-time'.
Best regards,
Marco

it's great to have such a mechanism.
my preference for such things is to use no-time for ones that are done later.

nix the 12:01.

AFAICS this is not so easy to implement. Thanks for sharing the idea,
though.
Best regards
