[Remind-Fans] Remind-fans Digest, Vol 78, Issue 13

Hello List-Members:

Just to clarify, yes, I have used
editor = '''/usr/bin/gedit'''
editold = '''%(e)s -f +%(n)s %(f)s'''
editnew = '''%(e)s -f + %(f)s'''

as this page indicated...
http://www.duke.edu/~dgraham/wxRemind/WXREMINDRC-LINUX

I tried triple single quote (''')
and a single+double ('")
and double+single quote ("')

These settings at least opens gedit and opens a new file called "set but
it's empty.

editor = '''/usr/bin/gedit'''
# editold = '"%(e)s -f +%(n)s %(f)s"'
# editnew = '"%(e)s -f + %(f)s"'

Nothing else works.

Thanks Jostein!
