I want to have an entry for the current time in today's agenda. That way I can keep track of how much time I have left until my next appointment. So far what ever I try, it shows up as an entry without a timestamp as shown below. Monday 6 December 2010 W49 8:00...... ---------------- 10:00...... ---------------- 12:00...... ---------------- 14:00...... ---------------- thoughts: 15:30-17:30 W' meeting 16:00...... ---------------- 18:00...... ---------------- 20:00...... ---------------- thoughts: Currrent time thoughts: TODO Hostel Room Change So far my attempts have been some variation of `<%%(format-time-string "%H%M")>' or `<%%(diary-entry-time ...)>'. Am I approaching this the wrong way? Is this not supported by the diary library? Thanks for any thoughts/suggestions. -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
