Use [trigtime()] instead for %3. For %2, you'd need to write a function
to convert from 24h to 12h time. That's left as an exercise for the
reader.

We can't omit the preposition because of the "today/tomorrow" cases.
But with a little work (again left as an exercise) you can write
Remind functions to do what you need.

David.
