Hello,

I am scheduling an include file update with the below

# run the below every 10 minutes
REM AT 0:00 *10 RUN make --silent -C /home/j/etc/remind/

$ cat Makefile
# check the discussion at
# http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/pipermail/remind-fans/2009/001854.html
# about "remind in daemon mode and it would appear that changes to include
# files are not picked."
# hence, the below solution
REMIND_INCLUDES = $(wildcard *.rem)
reminders: $(REMIND_INCLUDES)
        @touch $@


Just want to make sure that the above REM command looks good. With the
-d option, I can see the Trig statement being scheduled properly. But,
not sure how it would translate to the daemon mode.

Thanks
Joe
