I encountered a problem already described by Wanrong Lin some time ago (see http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg05839.html). Unfortunately no answers were given to his original request so here it comes again: Including agenda items into the diary with '&%%(org-diary ...' is something I personally find pretty useless as the dates of those items are not fontified in the calendar. Using '%%(org-diary ...' would be fine but the entries to use (':scheduled', ':todo' aso) cannot be limited any further. This not only leads to unacceptable delays while calendar tries to fontify its buffer but also to a calendar with nearly everyday marked. My intent was to mark dates with appointments only (I have scheduled items, todos etc. nearly everyday so there's no need to mark them). In my case this means that (org-diary) would need to distinct between different TODO keywords. However, filtering based on tags or date/time formats would be fine, too. My question now is: Is there currently any way to achieve such a filtering with (org-diary)? And if not, are there any plans to enhance (org-diary) in that direction? Regards, Ulf
