I was referring to auto-completion.  The only other significant 
differences
are the slashdot style category icons, and the nice reverse 
chronological
all-on-one-page layout.  But I think OP was referring to 
auto-completion.

My journal page never grew large enough to get me to write any pruning
functions, but they would be needed by anyone who used the mode in 
anger :-)

As the patch stands, and for the sake of my publishing to a Blosxom 
story
heirarchy, you do have to type the whole thing.  And it is a bit of a 
pain...

In an earlier thread we did start to discuss whether it was desirable to
enforce unique naming across all of the files in a project... that 
would be
a sufficient condition to write a function to keep an alist of
'( pagename . location ), and diagnose duplicates etc.

Now that I think about it again, there is no need to allow planner to 
have
duplicate names for day pages in a 2004/04/20 style heirarchy; I can 
enforce
unique naming, and planner could use 2004/04/2004.04.20.  That would 
make the
buffer name in the modeline more informative too... and you still get a 
tidier
index :-)

Cheers,
        Gary.
