Commands to Add to the Diary
----------------------------
While in the calendar, there are several commands to create diary
entries:
`i d'
Add a diary entry for the selected date (`insert-diary-entry').
`i w'
Add a diary entry for the selected day of the week
(`insert-weekly-diary-entry').
`i m'
Add a diary entry for the selected day of the month
(`insert-monthly-diary-entry').
`i y'
Add a diary entry for the selected day of the year
(`insert-yearly-diary-entry').
You can make a diary entry for a specific date by selecting that date
in the calendar window and typing the `i d' command. This command
displays the end of your diary file in another window and inserts the
date; you can then type the rest of the diary entry.
If you want to make a diary entry that applies to a specific day of
the week, select that day of the week (any occurrence will do) and type
`i w'. This inserts the day-of-week as a generic date; you can then
type the rest of the diary entry. You can make a monthly diary entry in
the same fashion: select the day of the month, use the `i m' command,
and type the rest of the entry. Similarly, you can insert a yearly
diary entry with the `i y' command.
All of the above commands make marking diary entries by default. To
make a nonmarking diary entry, give a numeric argument to the command.
For example, `C-u i w' makes a nonmarking weekly diary entry.
When you modify the diary file, be sure to save the file before
exiting Emacs.
