Re: [Orgmode] [PATCH] Avoid losing persisted clock data when exiting emac without loading org-mode
Hi Kai, after giving it more thought, what I checked in is actually a combination of the two patches you sent. Thanks you for finding and fixing this issue. - Carsten On Oct 24, 2009, at 8:40 PM, Kai Tetzlaff wrote: Carsten Dominik wrote: Hi Kai, On Oct 23, 2009, at 9:01 AM, Kai Tetzlaff wrote: Hi, i noticed that when using the org-mode clock persistence, the stored clock data gets deleted when i start emacs and exit again without turning on org-mode in between.
