Hi all, I posted this bug on the emacs bugs mailing list but was unsure if it should be posted there or here. Here's the bug report in full copied verbatim from my original post on emacs mailing list:
For a TODO item in org, as I type a SCHEDULED date, I can see a preview of the final timestamp next to it (starting with '=> FINAL_DATE'). Now I noticed that if I type in an incorrect string say '6:30pom' instead of '6:30pm', it gives me an error message in the echo area: ``` Error in post-command-hook (org-read-date-display): (error "Not an integer string: '6:30pom'") ``` After I delete backwards to correct the string to '6:30pm', the preview date never comes back. I am able to reproduce this with `emacs -Q`. Thanks.
