Re: [Orgmode] org-read-date-prefer-future 'time doesn't always prefer future

2010-01-01 Thread Carsten Dominik

Hi PT,

I have tried to fix this, and hopefully it will not break something  
else.

Could you please do some testing?

Also, everybody else, please keep an eye out if this change does break  
the date

reading function in any way.

Thanks!

Suppose I scheduled a task to 1pm, but I didn't have time to deal
with it during the day. It's 5pm now. If I want to reschedule the  
task to

tomorrow 10am then I can write simply 10am to the time prompt and
it puts the task correctly to tomorrow 10am. However, if I want
to reschedule it to tomorrow 2pm then I can't write simply 2pm,
because then it schedules the task at 2pm today (which is past
already, since it's 5 pm).

The problem is the feature uses the task's own scheduled time to
determine if a time is in the past, instead of the current time.


It's Org-mode version 6.33
