Commenting a diary sexp line??

Commenting a diary sexp line??

The following is in one of my Agenda files, I guess.  Is there any way to
comment it out, so that it is not evaluated and displayed in the agenda.
This seems to be displayed for every day.  I wanted to start a list of
various functions, but this one seems to be preeminent.

Thank you,

Alan Davis

Here's the attempt to comment, and the line:

What do you mean? What have you tried?

Anyway: Begin the org-sexp line with a `#' - the usual org comment character.

I also faced this once and was expecting using the COMMENT keyword on
the headline will do the trick but it doesn't. I had to use # before
the sexp.

So my question is, should org be ignoring the COMMENT keyword on
headlines when a sexp is present. I would be inclined to call this a
bug as a scheduled headline would be ignored in the presence of
COMMENT.

I finally Archived this subheading.  I am trying to get
org-mobile/mobile-org running on my new Android phone, and org-mobile-push
choked on three sexps.

Mh..  COMMENT originally means "do not export".  But I understand your
proposal.  I'm reluctant to implement this as I think you can already
set up your custom agenda views to ignore COMMENT headlines.

But I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks,

Could you point me to it? I did an apropos search for "org agenda
ignore" but all I could find was ignoring based on timestamps.

Sorry I forgot to respond.

I checked my settings, it is set to the default value: t. It works fine. :)
