Ah, I see. The script should at least not break just because some of us (me included) are older than Unix... ;-) The fix should be straightforward. Could you try adding the lines if (timestamp < 0) timestamp = 0; after the call to mktime in the datetimestamp function? This should at least make the script not crap out although obviously the date will be wrong (set to start of epoch). If this works, I will update the script on Worg and put in a warning message of some sort, maybe even in the entry itself. Suggestions on how to handle this case would be welcome, of course. -- : Eric S Fraga, GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D : in Emacs 24.3.50.1 and Org release_8.0.2-68-g40635b
