I'm trying a first use of the habits tracking function but I'm not sure
I understand the way they are set up. I have three questions. Here's the
first.
Is it possible to set up a daily habit -- that is, one that should be
done at least every day and at most every day (as opposed to the
"shaving" example in the manual where the at-most and at-least numbers
are different). Suppose I want to shave every day. Is this correct:
** TODO Shave
SCHEDULED: <2009-10-17 Sat .+1d>
I already tried the following but it gives an error:
** TODO Shave
SCHEDULED: <2009-10-17 Sat .+1d/1d>
The first seems to work but it's giving me a confusing bar chart (more
on that later), so I wanted to ask in case the repeater is wrong.
thanks,
Tommy

This should work.

Recent versions of org-mode flag this as an error. So I just use the
first example you have for things that repeat daily (as habits)
,----
| if: Habit Shave deadline repeat period is less than or equal to scheduled (.+1d/1d)
`----
I'm not sure why equal is considered an error in this case. It breaks
agenda display completely for me until I edit the offending habit entry.

Any repeater should be valid. (.+1d, ++1d, +1d)
