Yes, this works for me via planner-appt. I use a CVS Emacs on OS X from a few months ago. It should be enough to have (planner-appt-insinuate) in your config. > Is it possible to have just one "* Schedule" section and no "* Diary" section > and put all relevant diary entries into the "* Schedule" section? > > I cannot manage to do that.

I'm not sure because I'm not using planner-diary at all. What is the advantage of using both task-based appts and diary based one? The only ones I can think of have to do with birthday reminders and floating appts which are all covered by planner-cyclic which does integrate into planner-appt. >> Recently I have tried the planner-cyclic setup because I need to be >> reminded about recurring appointments.

Sure. My question wasn't clear: I was wondering if Emacs's diary system has support for multiple diary files. I think the answer is no, but that there are various workarounds. I agree that public/private, home/work, etc are all quite logical divisions.
