From: dfs@doe.carleton.ca (David F. Skoll) Newsgroups: alt.sources Subject: REMIND 2.0 03/03 Message-ID: <dfs.657486297@yar> Date: 1 Nov 90 19:04:57 GMT ------------- CUT HERE --- #!/bin/sh # This is part 03 of Remind 2.0 if touch 2>&1 | fgrep 'amc' > /dev/null then TOUCH=touch else TOUCH=true fi # ============= remind.1 ============== if test X"$1" != X"-c" -a -f 'remind.1'; then echo "File already exists: skipping 'remind.1'" else sed 's/^X//' << 'SHAR_EOF' > remind.1 && X.TH REMIND 1 "25 October 1990" X.UC 4 X.SH NAME Xremind \- a sophisticated reminder service X.SH SYNOPSIS X.B remind X[ X.B \-dvrop X] X.I filename X[ X.I date X] X.SH DESCRIPTION X.B remind Xreads the supplied X.I filename Xfor a list of reminders, and then issues reminders appropriate for Xthe current date. XEach reminder can consist of a message sent to standard output, or Xa program to be executed. X.SH OPTIONS X.TP X.B \-d XThe X.B \-d Xflag causes X.B remind Xto enter a debugging mode. XIn this mode, each reminder in the reminder file is examined and its Xtrigger date is printed to standard output. Also, some consistency Xchecking is done, and warnings are issued about constructs which could Xresult in slow execution times. X.TP X.B \-v XThe X.B \-v Xflag causes the debugging messages caused by X.B \-d Xto be printed in a verbose manner. Also, any error messages issued by X.B remind Xare printed in verbose format. X.TP X.B \-r XThe X.B \-r Xflag causes X.B remind Xto ignore any X.B RUN Xdirectives in the reminder file. X.TP X.B \-o XThe X.B \-o Xflag causes X.B remind Xto ignore any X.B ONCE Xdirectives in the reminder file. X.TP X.B \-p XThe X.B \-p Xflag causes X.B remind Xto go into X.I purge Xmode. This mode is incompatible with the X.B \-d Xflag. It causes X.B remind Xto scan the reminder file and echo all reminders which have not expired Xto the standard output. All expired reminders are echoed to the standard Xerror stream. X.PP XIf you supply a X.I date Xon the command line, it must consist of X.I day month year Xwhere X.I day Xis the day of the month, X.I month Xis (at least the first three letters of) the English name of the month, Xand X.I year Xis a year (all 4 digits) from 1990 to 2075. These components can appear Xin any order, but must be separated by spaces. If a date is supplied, X.B remind Xuses it rather than the actual system date as its notion of "today." You Xcan use this feature to test how reminders will appear in the future. X.SH REMINDER FILES X.B Remind Xuses scripts called X.I reminder files Xto control its operation. A sample reminder file is shown below: X.PP X.nf X #!/usr/local/bin/remind X # Sample file X BANNER Hi there. Here are your reminders: X X # First some birthdays X REM 6 Jan MSG David's birthday. X REM 23 Nov +10 MSG El's birthday is %a. X X # Next some housekeeping X REM 1 -1 OMIT Sat Sun RUN do_backup X X # Introduce some holidays X OMIT 25 Dec # Christmas X OMIT 1 July # Canada Day X OMIT 22 Nov 1990 # American Thanksgiving X X # Business things X REM 23 Nov 1990 +2 MSG Meeting with Bill at 10am %a. X.fi X.PP XNote that X.B remind Xignores blank lines and lines beginning with "#". XAlso, commands, names of months, etc. can be typed in any Xmixture of upper- and lower-case. The convention I use is to Xuse upper-case for X.B remind Xtokens like X.I XMSG, OMIT, Xetc., and mixed case for other words like X.I January Xand X.I Sunday. X.SH THE REM COMMAND XThe most-used command in a reminder file is the X.I REM Xcommand. This command is used to denote a reminder. There are two Xforms of the X.I REM Xcommand; they are: X.RS XREM [ONCE] X[ X.I date_spec X] X[ X.I delta X] X[ X.I back X] X[ XOMIT X.I omit_list X] XMSG X.I body X.PP XREM [ONCE] X[ X.I date_spec X] X[ X.I delta X] X[ X.I back X] X[ XOMIT X.I omit_list X] XRUN X.I body X.RE XThe X.I date_spec, delta Xand X.I back Xcan be specified in any order. The X.I OMIT, Xif present, must follow these three Xitems. The X.I MSG Xor X.I RUN Xmust be the last item before the X.I body. X.PP X.B Date Specifications X.PP XThe X.I date_spec Xconsists of zero to four parts. These parts are X.I day X(day of month), X.I month X(month name), X.I year Xand X.I weekday. X.I Month Xand X.I weekday Xare the English names of months and weekdays. At least the first three Xcharacters must be used. Case is irrelevant. The following are examples Xof the various parts of a X.I date_spec: X.TP X.I day: X1, 22, 31, 14, 3 X.TP X.I month: XJANUARY, feb, March, ApR, may, Aug X.TP X.I year: X1990, 1993, 2030, 95 (interpreted as 1995). The year can range Xfrom 1990 to 2075. X.TP X.I weekday: XMonday, tue, Wed, THU, Friday, saturday, sundAy X.PP XNote that there can be several X.I weekday Xcomponents separated by spaces in a X.I date_spec. X.PP X.B Interpretation of Date Specifications X.PP XThe following examples show how date specifications are interpreted. X.PP X1. Null date specification - the reminder is triggered every day. XThe trigger date for a specific run is simply the current system date. X.PP X2. Only X.I day Xpresent. The reminder is triggered on the specified day of each month. XThe trigger date for a particular run is the closest such day to the Xcurrent system date. For example: X.nf X REM 1 MSG First of every month. X REM 31 MSG 31st of every month that has 31 days. X.fi X.PP X3. Only X.I month Xpresent. The reminder is triggered every day of the specified month. XExample: X.nf X REM Feb MSG Every day in February X.fi X.PP X4. X.I day Xand X.I month Xpresent. Examples: X.nf X REM 6 Jan MSG Every 6th of January X REM Feb 29 MSG Every 29th of February X.fi X.PP X5. Only X.I year Xpresent. Example: X.nf X REM 1991 MSG Every day in 1991 X.fi X.PP X6. X.I year Xand X.I day Xpresent. Examples: X.nf X REM 1 1990 MSG 1st of every month in 1990 X REM 1992 23 MSG 23rd of every month in 1992 X.fi X.PP X7. X.I year Xand X.I month Xpresent. Examples: X.nf X REM Feb 1991 MSG Every day in Feb 1991 X REM 1992 September MSG Every day in Sept 1992 X.fi X.PP X8. X.I year, month Xand X.I day Xpresent. Examples: X.nf X REM 8 Jan 1991 MSG 8th January 1991. X REM 1992 March 9 MSG 9th March 1992. X.fi X.PP X9. X.I weekday Xonly. Examples: X.nf X REM Sat MSG Every Saturday X REM Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri MSG Every working day X REM Monday Wednesday MSG Every Monday and Wednesday X.fi X.PP X10. X.I weekday Xand X.I day Xpresent. Examples: X.nf X REM Sat 1 MSG First Saturday of every month X REM Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri MSG 1st working day after 15th of every month X.fi X.PP X11. X.I weekday Xand X.I month Xpresent. Examples: X.nf X REM Mon March MSG Every Monday in March X REM Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Feb MSG Every working day in February X.fi X.PP X12. X.I weekday, month Xand X.I day Xpresent. Examples: X.nf X REM Mon 1 March MSG First Monday in March X REM Sat Sun 15 July MSG First Sat or Sun on or after 15 July X.fi X.PP X13. X.I weekday Xand X.I year Xpresent. Example: X.nf X REM Sat Sun 1991 MSG Every Saturday and Sunday in 1991 X.fi X.PP X14. X.I weekday, day Xand X.I year Xpresent. Examples: X.nf X REM Mon 15 1990 MSG 1st Mon after 15th of every month in 1990 X REM Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri 1 1990 MSG 1st working day of every X month in 1990 X.fi X.PP X15. X.I weekday, month Xand X.I year Xpresent. Example: X.nf X REM Mon Wed 1991 Feb MSG Every Mon and Wed in Feb 1991. X.fi X.PP X16. X.I weekday, day, month Xand X.I year Xpresent. Example: X.nf X REM Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri 28 Oct 1990 MSG 1st working day X on or after 28 October 1990. X.fi X.PP XNote that when X.I weekday Xand X.I day Xare specified, X.B remind Xchooses the first date on or after the specified X.I day Xwhich also satisfies the X.I weekday Xconstraint. It does this by picking the first date on or after the specified X.I day Xwhich is listed in the list of X.I weekdays. XThus, a reminder like: X.PP X.nf X REM Mon Tue 28 Oct 1990 MSG Hi X.fi X.PP Xwould be issued only on Monday, 29 October, 1990. It would not be issued Xon Tuesday, 30 October, 1990, since the 29th is the first date to satisfy Xthe X.I weekday Xconstraints. X.PP X.B Backward Scanning X.PP XSometimes, you need to incorporate "backward scanning" into your date Xspecification. This is accomplished with the X.I back Xpart of the reminder specification. If present, the X.I back Xis specified as a negative number. This causes X.B remind Xto compute the trigger date as usual, and then move back the specified Xnumber of days. For example: X.PP X.nf X REM Mon 1 -7 MSG Last Monday of every month. X.fi X.PP XThis works by finding the first Monday of every month, and then moving X"back" seven days. This results in the last Monday of the previous Xmonth. (Warning: If you have global X.I OMITs, Xthis might not work - see Xthe X.I OMIT Xcommand.) X.PP XAnother example is: X.PP X.nf X REM 1 -1 MSG Last day of every month. X.fi X.PP XSince we don't know how many days are in a month, to get to the last day Xof a month, we go to the first day of the next month and then move back Xone day. X.PP X.B Remind Xwill automatically scan forwards and backwards until it finds a suitable Xtrigger date. Note that large X.I back Xvalues can lead to a lot of backtracking and slow the execution of X.B remind. X.PP X.B Advance Warning X.PP X.B Remind Xcan warn you of an upcoming reminder as far in advance as you desire. This Xis specified by a X.I delta, Xwhich is a positive number preceded by a "+" sign. For example: X.PP X.nf X REM 8 Jan 1992 +3 MSG Test1 X REM 1 +1 MSG Test2 X.fi X.PP XThe reminder "Test1" will be triggered on the 8th of January, 1992, as well Xas the 3 days preceding it. All told, "Test1" will be triggered on the X5th through the 8th of January, 1992. X.PP XThe reminder "Test2" will be triggered on the first day of every month, as Xwell as the day before. In effect, "Test2" will be triggered on the first Xand last day of every month. X.PP X.I Delta Xand X.I back Xcan be combined: X.PP X.nf X REM Mon 1 -7 +3 MSG Test3 X.fi X.PP XThe reminder "Test3" will be triggered on the last Monday of every month, Xas well as the three days preceding it. X.PP X.B The MSG Keyword X.PP XThe X.I MSG Xkeyword causes the remaining part of the line to be passed through a Xsubstitution filter and then printed to standard output whenever the Xreminder is triggered. See the section "Substitution" for more information Xabout the substitution filter. X.PP X.B The RUN Keyword X.PP XThe X.I RUN Xkeyword causes the remaining part of the line to be passed through the Xsubstitution filter and then passed to the default shell for execution Xwhenever the reminder is triggered. If the X.B \-r Xcommand-line option is specified, all X.I REM Xcommands with the X.I RUN Xkeyword are ignored. X.PP X.B XGetting Reminded only Once per Day X.PP XIf you run X.B remind Xfrom your X.I .login Xscript, you may only want certain reminders to be run once per day, not Xonce per login. Typically, this is used to control X.I RUN Xcommands so that they only execute once per day. To specify this, Xplace the X.I ONCE Xkeyword in the reminder file. When X.B remind Xencounters a X.I ONCE Xkeyword, it checks the last-access date of the reminder file. If it is Xequal to the current date, X.B remind Xassumes that the reminder file has already been run once, and ignored the Xreminder. If you start X.B remind Xwith the X.B \-o Xcommand-line option, X.B remind Xignores the X.I ONCE Xkeyword. X.PP X.B XLocally Omitting Weekdays X.PP XA X.I REM Xcommand containing the X.I OMIT Xkeyword followed by a list of weekdays causes the X.I delta Xand X.I back Xto ignore the specified weekdays when counting days. This is called a X.I local OMIT. XFor example: X.PP X.nf X REM 1 +1 OMIT Sat Sun MSG Test4 X.fi X.PP XThis reminder prints "Test4" on the first day of every month, as well Xas the previous day. If, however, the first day of the month falls on Xa Sunday or Monday, the reminder is also triggered on the previous XFriday, since the X.I delta Xof +1 does not count Saturdays or Sundays when moving backwards. Here's Xanother example: X.PP X.nf X REM 1 -1 +1 OMIT Sat Sun MSG Test5 X.fi X.PP XThis reminder is triggered on the last working day of each month, as well Xas the working day preceding it. Let's look at it in detail: X.PP XThe X.I day Xof "1" specifies the first day of each month. The X.I back Xof "-1" tells X.B remind Xto go backwards by one day, not counting Saturday and Sunday as it moves. XThis takes us the the last working day of the preceding month, which is the Xtrigger date. The X.I delta Xof "+1" ensures that the reminder will be triggered on the day preceding Xthis trigger date also. Finally, if the trigger date happens to be Xa Monday, the X.I delta Xcombined with the X.I local OMIT Xcauses the reminder to be triggered on the Friday (and Saturday and Sunday) Xpreceding the trigger date. X.SH THE OMIT COMMAND X.I OMIT Xexists as a separate command as well as a keyword within a X.I REM Xstatement. When used as a separate command, it is called a X.I global OMIT, Xand has the following form: X.RS XOMIT X.I day X.I month X[ X.I year X] X.RE XThe arguments can be specified in any order. X.PP XThe form without the X.I year Xcomponent is used for holidays which fall on the same date each year. XFor example: X.PP X.nf X OMIT 25 December # Christmas X OMIT 1 January # New Year's Day X.fi X.PP X(Note that X.I OMIT Xcan have a following comment on the same line, unlike the X.I REM Xcommand.) X.PP XThe form with the X.I year Xcomponent is used for holidays which vary from year to year. For example: X.PP X.nf X OMIT 12 October 1990 # Columbus Day 1990 X OMIT 22 November 1990 # Thanksgiving Day 1990 X.fi X.PP XIn its debugging messages, X.B remind Xcalls the first form a X.I partially-specified global OMIT Xand the second form a X.I fully-specified global OMIT. X.PP XThe dates specified by X.I global OMITs Xare omitted by the X.I back Xand X.I delta Xportions of a reminders, in addition to any X.I local OMITs. XFor example: X.PP X.nf X OMIT 25 December X REM 26 +1 OMIT Sat Sun MSG Test6 X.fi X.PP XThis would issue a reminder on the 26th of each month, as well as the Xpreceding working day. Also, on the 24th of December 1990, the reminder Xwould be issued. Even though the 25th of December 1990 is a Tuesday, the X.I global OMIT Xwould cause the X.I delta Xto skip it. X.PP X.I Global OMITs Xare in force for all reminders following them in the reminder file. Thus, Xyou could have a series of reminders for which X.I global OMITs Xare inappropriate (such as birthdays or reminders which rely on X.I back Xto get to a specific weekday) ahead of any X.I global OMITs, Xwith business reminders (for which omission of holidays is appropriate) Xfollowing the X.I global OMITs. X.SH THE INCLUDE COMMAND XThe X.I INCLUDE Xcommand has the following form: X.RS XINCLUDE X.I filename X.RE XThis causes X.B remind Xto suspend the current file and read the contents of the specified X.I filename. XOnce that file has been read, X.B remind Xcontinues reading the original file from where it left off. X.I INCLUDE Xcommands can be nested to a depth of 10. X.PP X.I INCLUDE Xallows you or someone else to maintain a file of holidays or system-wide Xreminders that everyone should get. For example, your reminder file could Xlook something like this: X.PP X.nf X #!/usr/local/bin/remind X # X # Place personal stuff here - birthdays, etc. X X # Now get system-wide global OMITS (holidays) X INCLUDE /usr/share/holidays X X # and system-wide reminders X INCLUDE /usr/share/reminders X X # Place local business stuff here. X.fi X.PP XThe X.I ONCE Xkeyword operates on the last-access date of the top-level file. XThe access dates of X.I INCLUDEd Xfiles are not used to control the operation of the X.I ONCE Xkeyword. X.SH SUBSTITUTION XBefore being processed, the body of a X.I REM Xcommand is passed through a substitution filter. The filter scans for Xsequences "%x" where "x" is any letter, and performs substitutions as Xshown below. (All dates refer to the trigger date of the reminder.) X.TP X.B %a Xis replaced with "on \fIweekday, day month, year\fR" X.RS XFor example, consider the reminder: X.PP XREM 18 Oct 1990 +4 MSG Meeting with Bob %a. X.PP XOn 16 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob on Thursday, 18 October, X1990." X.PP XOn 17 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob tomorrow." X.PP XOn 18 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob today." X.RE X.TP X.B %b Xis replaced with "in \fIdiff\fR day's time" where X.I diff Xis the X.B actual Xnumber of days between the current date and the trigger date. X(\fIOMITs\fR have no effect.) X.RS XFor example, consider: X.PP XREM 18 Oct 1990 +4 MSG Meeting with Bob %b. X.PP XOn 16 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob in 2 days' time." X.PP XOn 17 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob tomorrow." X.PP XOn 18 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob today." X.RE X.TP X.B %c Xis replaced with "on \fIweekday\fR" X.RS XExample: REM 18 Oct 1990 +4 MSG Meeting with Bob %c. X.PP XOn 16 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob on Thursday." X.PP XOn 17 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob tomorrow." X.PP XOn 18 October 1990, it would print "Meeting with Bob today." X.RE X.TP X.B %d Xis replaced with "\fIday\fR", the day of the month. X.TP X.B %e Xis replaced with "on \fIdd/mm/yyyy\fR" X.TP X.B %f Xis replaced with "on \fImm/dd/yyyy\fR" X.TP X.B %g Xis replaced with "on \fIweekday, day month\fR" X.TP X.B %h Xis replaced with "on \fIdd/mm\fR" X.TP X.B %i Xis replaced with "on \fImm/dd\fR" X.TP X.B %j Xis replaced with "on \fIweekday, month day-th, year\fR" This form appends the Xcharacters "st", "nd", "rd" or "th" to the day of the month, as appropriate. X.TP X.B %k Xis replaced with "on \fIweekday, month day-th\fR" X.TP X.B %l Xis replaced with "on \fIyyyy/mm/dd\fR" X.TP X.B %m Xis replaced with "\fImonth\fR", the name of the month. X.TP X.B %n Xis replaced with the number (1 to 12) of the month. X.TP X.B %o Xis replaced with " (today)" if and only if the current system date is the same Xas the date being used by X.B remind Xas the current date. Recall that you can specify a date for X.B remind Xto use on the command line. This substitution is not generally useful in a X.I REM Xcommand, but is useful in a X.I BANNER Xstatement. (See the section "The BANNER Command.) X.TP X.B %p Xis replaced with "s" if the X.I diff Xbetween the current date and the trigger date is not 1. You can use this Xto construct reminders like: X.RS XREM 1 Jan +4 MSG %x day%p to go before New Year! X.RE X.TP X.B %q Xis replaced with "'s" if the X.I diff Xbetween the trigger date and the current date is 1. Otherwise, it is replaced Xwith "s'" This can be used as follows: X.RS XREM 1 Jan +4 MSG New Year in %x day%q time! X.RE X.TP X.B %r Xis replaced with the day of the month (01 to 31) padded with a leading zero Xif needed to pad to two digits. X.TP X.B %s Xis replaced with "st", "nd", "rd" or "th" depending on the day of the month. X.TP X.B %t Xis replaced with the number of the month (01 to 12) padded to two digits Xwith a leading zero. X.TP X.B %u Xis replaced with "on \fIweekday, day-th month, year\fR" This is similar Xto X.B %a Xexcept that "st", "nd", "rd" or "th" is added to the X.I day Xas appropriate. X.TP X.B %v Xis replaced with "on \fIweekday, day-th month\fR" X.TP X.B %w Xis replaced with "\fIweekday\fR", the name of the day of the week. X.TP X.B %x Xis replaced with the X.I diff Xbetween the current date and the trigger date. The X.I diff Xis defined as the actual number of days between these two dates; X.I OMITs Xare not counted. (Strict date subtraction is performed.) X.TP X.B %y Xis replaced with "\fIyear\fR", the year of the trigger date. X.TP X.B %z Xis replaced with "\fIyy\fR", the last two digits of the year. X.PP XNotes: X.TP X o XSubstitutions a, b, c, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, u and v all are replaced Xwith "today" if the current date equals the trigger date, or "tomorrow" Xif the trigger date is one day after the current date. Thus, they are X.B not Xthe same as substitutions built up from the simpler %w, %y, etc. Xsequences. X.TP Xo XCapital letters can be used in the substitution sequence, in which case Xthe first character of the substituted string is capitalized (if it is Xnormally a lower-case letter.) X.TP Xo XAll other characters following a "%" sign are simply copied. In particular, Xto get a "%" sign out, use "%%" in the body. To start the body of a reminder Xwith a space, use "% ", since X.B remind Xnormally scans for the first non-space character after a X.I MSG Xor X.I RUN Xtoken. X.PP X.B XMulti-line Reminders X.PP X.B Remind Xis a line-oriented program. Normally, a blank line is printed between Xreminders. You can "fake" a multi-line reminder by repeating single-line Xreminders, ending all but the last with "%". The final "%" causes X.B remind Xnot to print a blank line after the reminder. (Don't type any spaces after Xthe final "%") Thus: X.PP X.nf X REM 25 July +2 MSG This is an example of a% X REM 25 July +2 MSG long reminder that takes up% X REM 25 July +2 MSG three lines. X.fi X.SH THE BANNER COMMAND XWhen X.B remind Xissues reminders, it normally prints a message saying: X.PP X"Reminders for \fIweekday, day-th month, year\fR (today):" X.PP X(If you supply a date on the command line different from the system date, Xthe "(today)" portion is omitted.) X.PP XYou can change this default to anything you want with the X.I BANNER Xcommand. It should appear in the reminder file before any X.I REM Xcommands. (This is not enforced, but a X.I BANNER Xcommand encountered after a reminder has been triggered will be ignored.) X.PP XThe format of X.I BANNER Xis: X.PP XBANNER X.I string X.PP XThe X.I string Xis passed through the substitution mechanism described before, using the Xcurrent date for substitution. The standard banner is described by: X.PP X.nf X BANNER Reminders for %w, %d%s %m, %y%o: X.fi X.PP XYou can have a blank banner by using: X.PP X.nf X BANNER % X.fi X.PP X.SH PURGING REMINDER FILES XYou should periodically purge your reminder file of "expired" X.I REM Xcommands and global X.I OMITs. XThese are reminders which took place in the past and can never occur Xagain, or X.I OMITs Xwhich are for past years. Of course, only X.I REMs Xand X.I OMITs Xwith the X.I year Xspecified can ever expire. X.PP XTo purge your reminder file, run X.B remind Xin X.I purge Xmode. This mode simply echoes non-expired lines to standard output, and Xexpired lines to standard error. Thus, to purge a file, you could type: X.PP X.nf X REMIND -p notes.old > notes.new X.fi X.PP XThe file "notes.new" would contain all non-expired lines from "notes.old." XAll expired lines are echoed to the screen. X.I INCLUDEd Xfiles are read an processed, but not purged. You must purge each X.I INCLUDEd Xfile separately. X.PP XYou can supply a date on the command line when purging, but beware: If you Xsupply a date in the future, you may inadvertently purge lines which have not Xreally expired yet. X.SH DEBUGGING A REMINDER FILE XThe debug command-line option \-d is used to debug reminder files. It tells Xyou useful information about the reminder file. It displays the trigger date Xof each reminder, and places an asterisk by those which would be issued Xon the current date. It also informs you of X.I OMITs Xwhich have expired, and gives warnings about situations which could lead Xto long execution times or unexpected results. X.PP XAll debugging messages are sent to standard error. X.SH AUTHOR XDavid F. Skoll X.SH BUGS X.B Remind Xwas originally written for MS-DOS and ported to UNIX.
