hmm. There's definitely something funny going on, I presume with emacs
rather than org, and (again presumably) something to do with my configs or
installed packages. The function that's failing is org-eval-in-calendar:
debug(error (wrong-type-argument window-live-p nil))
select-window(nil)
org-eval-in-calendar(nil t)
If we look at the defun:
(defun org-eval-in-calendar (form &optional keepdate)
"Eval FORM in the calendar window and return to current window.
Also, store the cursor date in variable org-ans2."
(let ((sf (selected-frame))
(sw (selected-window)))
(select-window (get-buffer-window "*Calendar*" t))
(eval form)
(when (and (not keepdate) (calendar-cursor-to-date))
(let* ((date (calendar-cursor-to-date))
(time (encode-time 0 0 0 (nth 1 date) (nth 0 date) (nth 2 date))))
(setq org-ans2 (format-time-string "%Y-%m-%d" time))))
(move-overlay org-date-ovl (1- (point)) (1+ (point)) (current-buffer))
(select-window sw)
(org-select-frame-set-input-focus sf)))
-------
I think emacs is having trouble finding the buffer '*Calendar*' -- even
though it clearly exists and can be manually selected using C-x b. I could
verify this by just eval-defun'ing this line:
(select-window (get-buffer-window "*Calendar*" t))
from the scratch buffer -- this produces the same backtrace. However,
oddly, after experiencing the same issue about 6 times in a row, the problem
mysteriously disappeared just now, and the procedure is working fine. I
have no idea what the issue is there -- I'll report when I find it again.
Maybe someone on the list can give me suggestions for debugging if it shows
up again? Thanks,
Matt
