Subject: Date Prompt Bug (or Anomoly)
Date: Tue, 01 Jun 2010 12:41:51 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <876322hcps.wl%ded-law@ddoherty.net> (raw)
All,
In playing around with the date prompt (C-.), I ran across the following
puzzling behavior from rather simple inputs.
I entered the following on June 1, 2010. Here is a date entered as
"3/15": <2011-03-15 Tue>. It interpreted it as the upcoming March 15 as
expected.
But here is a date entered as "5/21": <2021-06-05 Sat>. Note how it
interpreted the "21" as the year 2021, not at all what I expected from
the documentation or the analogous "3/15" example.
Maybe there is some underlying logic here that I'm not getting. Perhaps
it has to do with how 2-digit years are interpreted?
What's going on here? I am using org-version 6.36trans on emacs 23.1.
Regards,
