- This program will merge a number of Psion 3a agenda files into a single
- agenda file. During the merge process it will optionally delete memos or
- alarms, delete crossed out entries, change the display occurrence or
- repeating entries, omit entries that are outside a date range, prefix all
- or part of the agenda file name to each entries from that agenda, or change
- the style of entries. All these options can be saved to a configuration
- file for repeated use.
-
- This program was written to solve the following problem. I have an agenda
- file for work only, an another for home only. I have other agendas which
- contains details of the cycling club with which I ride, and another of
- sunrise/sunset times. To put all these together in a single agenda
- produces a file so big that I would be very slow to work with. It would
- sometimes present too much information. Each of my agenda files are about
- 20k. This is an acceptable size to work with. However, when setting an
- appointment you cannot see potential clashes between the agendas. I
- started manually merging them, but the file was too big to be manageable,
- and alarms would be duplicated or would still go off unless deleted in two
- places. AGNMERGE will optionally strip out memos and alarms, and will
- merge within a date range. Currently I merge two months ahead and the
- combined agenda is 24k.
