Subject: [PATCH] sexp may retrurn a list
Date: Tue, 19 Oct 2010 15:38:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87hbgicnfb.fsf@dasa3.iem.pw.edu.pl> (raw)

Hi.

I've disovered, that %%(org-bbdb-anniversaries) returns (as every other
sexp) a string. Which is OK if there is only one.

  Anniversaries:  John Doe's 10th wedding anniversary

Unfortunately the agenda view becomes awful if we have noted Jane's
weeding date too 

  Anniversaries:  John Doe's 10th wedding anniversary; Jane Doe's 10th wedding anniversary

And what if we know 3 Eves and 5 Adams and it's Christmas Eve? (Hint:
their name day)

So i decided to introduce little modifications so that a sexp may return
a list of strings and org-agenda-get-sexps and org-diary-sexp-entry
functions accept that. I've modified org-bbdb-anniversaries too, so it
returns a list no matter how many anniversaries there are on a
particular day.

It looks better now, doesn't it?

  Anniversaries:  John Doe's 10th wedding anniversary
  Anniversaries:  Jane Doe's 10th wedding anniversary

The patch is backward compatible of course and if a sexp returns a
string than the output is the same as it used to be.

Behold The Patch:
