Those buffers not modified by hand are not tagged as "changed", so you are not prompted to save them. Having said that, I take your point about not worrying about over population of the Plans directory. It was more me in "QA/try everything mode" than caused my eyebrows to raise at so many effectively empty or redundant files being generated. > >>> be read-only?

But you already do - physical pages are created which didnt exist before in order to only display a diary entry (which is sourced from .diary anyway) - my only suggestion was that these were not saved or prompted to be saved unless manually altered- they only appear as a "preview" if you like. But anyway, as I said, it's not a big issue since I've stopped peering into the Plans directory now and only rely on the planner interface. Just to ask once more in case I missed it : whats the best way to see all open tasks (past, present and future) regardless of whether they have a date assigned? _______________________________________________ Planner-el-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/planner-el-discuss
