Hi ...

Anyone know if remind can count days to/from ...
Idea from:
[ord(year(trigdate())-1977)]

↑↑↑↑↑ expand to include #days #months # years

=======================
one I am interested in (Pension Day):

# 3rd last working day of the month 
REM 1 -3 OMIT Sat Sun MSG Payday

so:
REM {today} to 1 -3 OMIT Sat Sun MSG $dayc
=======================
and birthdays 

Bob (will be) 47 in 3m 6d
Christmas (in) 5m 16d
Debian 11 (in) 3y 5m 18d

01012000 (was) 7354d ago
01012000 (was) 20y 1m 18d

NOTE:  I have spent a lot of time with "Remind.pdf" (manpage) and got lost in
a headache --- I am not a programmer.

Although under BUILT-IN FUNCTIONS I see some stuff that might do it.
