Hi Jai,
Jai Jeffryes jaijeff...@hotmail.com writes:
Thanks for looking at my message. So, here's what I came up with by following
the instructions on the Feedback page you suggested.
Thanks!
1. Emacs version: GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2009-07-29 on
SOFT-MJASON
2. Org version (it came with my Emacs install, I didn't do a separate
installation of the mode):
Org-mode version 6.21b
3. (Even though I'm writing to this email list, I was curious to try the
command M-x org-submit-bug-report. That command is not defined in my Emacs.)
4. Here are the org-related commands in my init file. I found out how to set
up
my agenda files there instead of relying on the command that I'm demonstrating
now.
;; Org mode
(require 'org)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '(\\.org$ . org-mode))
(define-key global-map \C-cl 'org-store-link)
(define-key global-map \C-ca 'org-agenda)
(setq org-log-done t)
(setq org-todo-keywords '(TODO WAITING DONE))
(setq org-agenda-include-diary t)
(setq org-agenda-include-all-todo t)
(setq org-agenda-files (file-expand-wildcards J:/MyDocuments/GTD/org/*.org))
Try to comment out the line above and use the custom interface to set
your agenda files. See if the error persists.
4. Creating a backtrace. The command C-u M-x org-reload RET does not exist on
my Emacs.
5. I turned on the option to enter the debugger.
6. I visited a new file called sample.org. I didn't put it in the directory
specified for agenda files in my init file (listed above). I wanted to add it
interactively for this demo.
7. I saved that file.
8. I selected from the menu: Org -- File List for Agenda -- Add/Move Current
File to Front of List
9. Here is the output from the *Backtrace* buffer.
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (scan-error Unbalanced parentheses 17301
29246)
scan-sexps(83 29245)
forward-sexp(29245)
custom-save-delete(custom-set-variables)

customize-save-variable(org-agenda-files (j:/MyDocuments/GTD/sample.org
j:
/MyDocuments/GTD/org/GTDSteelWig.org j:/MyDocuments/GTD/org/
SteelWigSomeday.org))
org-store-new-agenda-file-list((j:/MyDocuments/GTD/sample.org j:/
MyDocuments/GTD/org/GTDSteelWig.org j:/MyDocuments/GTD/org/
SteelWigSomeday.org))
org-agenda-file-to-front(nil)
call-interactively(org-agenda-file-to-front nil nil)
I don't know Lisp, but I can count parentheses (or use Emacs to tell me what
they match up with by backspacing over a right one and filling it back in
again.) I don't see unbalanced parentheses in that output.
Maybe the unbalanced parentheses are in the custom-file, not in the
output. Is your custom-file eval'ing correctly?
Dynamically adding or removing files from the org-agenda-files variable
stores this variable in the custom file, even if you are setting this
variable outside the custom file. So, if you use C-c [ frequently, you
shouldn't set org-agenda-files outside of the custom-file.
Maybe the documentation should warn the user about this problem. I
don't see any simple solution...
