The new TkRemind will ignore the option blocks, and in fact will delete
them if it has to rewrite the reminders file.

You can use TKTAGs in reminders as long as the lines you add match
this regular expression:

     ^REM TAG TKTAG[0-9]+

Be aware that if you delete a reminder from within TkRemind, it will
renumber the TKTAGs on existing reminders.  So if you need a stable TKTAG
as an identifier, you're out of luck.  If this is a problem, let me know
and I'll figure out a way around this.
