Below is an elisp function which does the required work. I now call
this function at the beginning of the month so my journal.org file is
pre-populated to make it easier for me to set future todos. You can
also call it for any future month/year combination you want. Feel free
to add it to orgmode or just let people who want it add to their own
system manually.
Thanks again for orgmode!
;;;;; Elisp code follows:
(defun create-dates-for-month-and-year (month year)
"Create entries in date-tree format in current buffer.
This function creates nodes for all days in given the given MONTH and YEAR
in the current buffer (if they do not exist already).
"
(let ((day 1)
(max-days (if (= 2 month)
(if (date-leap-year-p year) 29 28)
(nth month
(list nil 31 28 31 30 31 30 31 31 30 31 30 31))))
)
(while (<= day max-days)
(org-datetree-find-date-create (list month day year))
(setq day (+ 1 day))
)
)
)
