Hello,
I am new to the mailing list. I joined specifically to ask about a function
I'm trying to write, and was hoping that in the process I would learn a bit
more about using remind.
The function (review()) pseudocode:
take trigdate() # The date I make the make the reminder
create a message after 1 month (*31 ??) # Review after 1 month
create a message after 3 months (*93 ??) # Review after 3 months
etc… for 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years
I only want a single reminder for each review (I don't know how to stop it
from triggering every three months using *93)
Example use:
REM review(1 Nov 2013) MSG Review that thing!
- Which would create a reminder message (Review that thing!) 1 month, 3
months, 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years from November 1st, 2013.
I'm sure this is fairly straight forward to do. I've read the man pages,
and am trying to piece something together. I thought this might be an
appropriate time to reach out for some guidance.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
-Scott
