G'morning,
I have a reminder to shop for a TV for a Christmas gift for our
family:
REM Dec 25 2019 +60 MSG %"Start shopping for TV replacement%" due %b%
No OMIT, nor anything fancy that (AFAICT) should slide that around.
And in fact, if I simply use that one line as my reminder file, I
don't get a reminder today.
However, when I include the standard "globals.rem" file
$ remind <(cat globals.rem; grep TV tim.rem)
I started receiving notifications today (2019-10-23), 63 days out:
Reminders for Wednesday, 23rd October, 2019 (today):
Start shopping for TV replacement due in 63 days' time
It's not a *problem* (the 60 days was really just a rough "don't
forget to start watching sales" reminder), I was just a bit confused
and hoped for a better understanding of what would extend that "+60"
to notify me more than 60 days out.
Thanks for any insights,
-tim
