I've gotten into a bit of a bind on sorting. A little explanation:
I've been working at keeping the ~/org directory of three machines
syncronized through a master repo on a USB flash drive. I've made a
bit of progress, and for simple updates, it is basically working. I
still don't grok merging conflicts. I've finally ended up with a
file with duplicates of entries, so I thought of concatenating
files, then sorting these entries. Each entry has a date (made from
a remember template), so sorting by date makes sense.
Ideally, one should be able to do this, and then sort with C-u C-u C-
c^. I've tried this several times, and gotten bitten almost every
time. I guess the dates can only be sorted as text. And duplicates
are not removed. I read the manual, but little help was gotten there.
What do I need to know to make sorting work, and what I might be
doing wrong?
You need to make an example files to demonstrate what exactly goes
wrong.
