A character like ?A, ?B, etc., or a numeric value like 1, 2, etc. The default is the character ?A, which is 65 as a numeric value. If you set ‘org-priority-highest’ to a numeric value inferior to 65, Org assumes you want to use digits for the priority cookie. If you set it to >=65, Org assumes you want to use alphabetical characters. In both cases, the value of ‘org-priority-highest’ must be smaller than ‘org-priority-lowest’: for example, if "A" is the highest priority, it is smaller than the lowest "C" priority: 65 < 67. Are you sure the numeric value for `org-priority-highest' is smaller than that of `org-priority-lowest'? For numeric priorities, [#1] is always "higher" than [#2]. If I'm not wrong and if you think we can throw a more useful error earlier to the useful, could you provide a patch for this? Let me know if I'm missing something, thanks, -- Bastien
