Re: [O] Filling a list of dates in a spreadsheet

[Christian Moe]

Hi,

S-<RET> (Shift-Return) is your friend. After you've entered the first
two dates, move down to the third row (which needs to be empty), and hit
S-<RET>. You can continue pressing S-<RET> without moving down a row
each time.

Yours,
Christian
