I'm not sure if this is an FAQ, but I didn't see it in the remind man page.

I'm familiar with the BEFORE and AFTER keywords ... but I wonder if
it would be hard to add a single keyword for "Move Saturday to Friday and
Move Sunday to Monday" for things like Veterans Day.

Right now I have:

rem 11 nov scanfrom [trigger(today()-7)] satisfy 1
if (wkdaynum(trigdate()) == 6)
  omit 10 nov msg veterans day
else
  if (wkdaynum(trigdate()) == 0)
    omit 12 nov msg veterans day
  else
    omit 11 nov msg veterans day
  endif
endif

... but it would be cool to have a single

rem 11 nov NOTWEEKEND scanfrom [trigger(today()-7)] msg veterans day

--hymie!
