No. Try it out. planner evaluates code in lisp tags and displays the result.
If you put
<lisp>(+ 1 1)</lisp>
in a plan page, you will see "2".

You wouldn't want to see it. I provided a way to use "lisp" tags because
somebody might like them (or somebody asked for it, I don't remember). But I
provided a second way to use planner with diary:

Yep. The code will display your diary entries if your editor is smart enough
to understand the lisp tags. AFAIK only Emacs with planner-mode loaded
understands the lisp tags, so in any other editor you will just see the plain
lisp code.

Hope I could help you overcome your confusion.
