Comments: Support for specifying the duration in absolute minutes could be useful in some cases. (In my case, I was trying to plug in the duration of a BBC production specified in minutes - for eg 92 min, 116 min, 205 min etc). Related bugs: 1. While trying to specify time range as '2:00-3:00' I see the following message - 'Error in post-command-hook: (parse-error not an integer 3:)'. The corresponding calendar entry gets created though. 2. Is there support for agenda to wrap around the day. For example how would the following entries be interpreted 23:00+2:00, 3:00+48. Just curious. --=-=-= Content-Type: text/x-patch Content-Disposition: inline; filename=0002-Update-The-date-time-prompt-section-of-Org-Manual-wi.patch Content-Description: org-manual.patch >From a6936fb1e0f42c953af6f91e78f7f7d2543c2901 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jambunathan K Date: Sun, 8 Aug 2010 22:41:07 +0530 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Update 'The date/time prompt' section of Org Manual with time range specs.
