First the patch --- org-agenda.el~ 2012-09-12 21:24:27.000000000 -0400 +++ org-agenda.el 2012-09-17 06:02:45.000000000 -0400 @@ -90,7 +90,7 @@ (defvar org-mobile-force-id-on-agenda-items) ; defined in org-mobile.el (defvar org-habit-show-habits) ; defined in org-habit.el (defvar org-habit-show-habits-only-for-today) -(defvar org-habit-show-all-today nil) +(defvar org-habit-show-all-today) ; defined in org-habit.el ;; Defined somewhere in this file, but used before definition. (defvar org-agenda-buffer-name "*Org Agenda*") Second, the symptom Without this patch the emacs config shows the "show-all-today" as having been changed outside the config process, and it is set to "nil" rather than the setting in the .emacs file. It shows this immediately upon startup when the config option is started and nothing else has been done. If I understand defvar properly, this means that the org-agenda is being evaluated before the .emacs, which is not what I expected at all. So either I don't understand defvar properly or the order of evaluation at startup is not what I thought. Either way, there are possibly other defvars that need fixing. Now that org-habit is part of the base org-mode, perhaps the proper fix is to remove those three defvars. Someone who understands the startup sequence should make that decision.
