Repeating tasks have a time to happen next (I usually use scheduled time for tasks, and active timestamps for appointments, but I am not sure that matters). When you mark the task done, a repeating task will automatically jump back to TODO with the repeated date.

What is wrong (if you can call it that) is that the actual argument list to the org-diary-class function depends on the settings of a couple of variables: calendar-date-style and/or european-calendar-style.

For example: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- CLOCK: [2010-10-26 mar. 09:14]--[2010-10-26 mar. 10:15] => 1:01 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- where `mar.' represents `Tue' (mardi, Tuesday). Though, I must admit that the use of French abbreviations for the *week days* is not always done: at some point in time, Org reverts to using English week days abbreviations. But I still don't understand when, what's the cut-off reason for the change in behavior. Can you help, please? My params are: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- In GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2009-10-14 on LENNART-69DE564 (patched) Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600 configured using `configure --with-gcc (3.4) --cflags -Ic:/g/include' Important settings: value of $LC_ALL: nil value of $LC_COLLATE: nil value of $LC_CTYPE: nil value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil value of $LC_MONETARY: nil value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil value of $LC_TIME: nil value of $LANG: en_US value of $XMODIFIERS: nil locale-coding-system: cp1252 default enable-multibyte-characters: t Major mode: Org --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- and, for the sake of completeness, here is the value of two variables which could be of interest: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (describe-variable 'calendar-date-style) #+end_src #+results: #+begin_example calendar-date-style is a variable defined in `calendar.el'. Its value is iso Documentation: Your preferred style for writing dates. The options are: `american' - month/day/year `european' - day/month/year `iso' - year/month/day This affects how dates written in your diary are interpreted. It also affects date display, as well as those calendar and diary functions that take a date as an argument, e.g. `diary-date', by changing the order in which the arguments are interpreted. Setting this variable directly does not take effect (if the calendar package is already loaded). Rather, use either M-x customize or the function `calendar-set-date-style'. You can customize this variable. This variable was introduced, or its default value was changed, in version 23.1 of Emacs. #+end_example and: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (describe-variable 'european-calendar-style) #+end_src #+results: #+begin_example european-calendar-style is a variable defined in `calendar.el'. Its value is nil This variable is obsolete since 23.1; use `calendar-date-style' instead. Documentation: Non-nil means use the European style of dates in the diary and display. In this case, a date like 1/2/1990 would be interpreted as February 1, 1990. See `diary-european-date-forms' for the default European diary date styles. Setting this variable directly does not take effect (if the calendar package is already loaded). Rather, use either M-x customize or the function `calendar-set-date-style'.
