Basically, it *does* wrap.  For example, if I am focusing Saturay,
January 8, pressing `l` takes me to January 9.  Judging from your error
message, there seems to be an encoding issue when the UI tries to update
the reminders in the window on the right.  Does one of your reminders
for the next day contain special (i.e., non-ASCII) characters?  (And, if
yes: which one?)

I like the scroll function idea, I’ll see what I can manage to do during
the next couple of days.

What do you mean by “opening” a specific task?

It provides the number of reminders for that day.
