Hello,

Remind 03.01.07 is available at http://www.roaringpenguin.com/products/remind

The changes are:

===========================================================================
ENHANCEMENT: Wherever you could write "day Mon year", the parser now
accepts "YYYY-MM-DD".  This applies on the command-line and to the
REM and OMIT keywords.  You can avoid wrapping date calculations in
the trigger() function in many cases.

ENHANCEMENT: New slide() built-in function eases some complicated reminders.
===========================================================================

The "slide()" function solves a problem that came up on the list a while
back.  The original poster wanted a reminder for the following:
A bank transferred money to her on the first working day on or after Dec. 31.
The money arrived two working days later.  In Remind 03.01.06, the solution
was rather clumsy.  In 03.01.07, it's a one-liner:

REM [slide(evaltrig("31 Dec OMIT Sat Sun AFTER", today() - 31), 2, "Sat", "Sun")] MSG Money Received

The man page explains how slide() works.

Regards,

David.
