Hi,
I use the function `date' in a table formula to convert org date stamps to
integers for further processing. However, after switching Emacs to a German
locale, this no longer works. Consider the table below:
| Stamp | date |
|------------------+--------|
| [2012-10-31 Wed] | 734808 |
| [2012-10-31 Mi] | #ERROR |
#+TBLFM: $2=date(<$1>)
Org mode generally works fine with the German version of the date stamp, i.e.,
it is picked up in the agenda and deadline warnings work as expected. However,
the `date' function in a table formula does not work. My Emacs inserts the
German version of the date stamp after I've added the following file as
`.MacOSX/environment.plist':
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>LANG</key>
<string>de_DE.UTF-8</string>
<key>LC_ALL</key>
<string>de_DE.UTF-8</string>
</dict>
</plist>
This was necessary to make Cocoa Emacs correctly process filenames with umlauts.
Any idea how the date function can be made locale-aware? Or is there another
alternative for this calculation?
Thanks,
Viktor
