There's one subtlety with short-hand date specifications: The following

In the second statement, the "+60" is a \fIdelta\fR that applies to the

date rather than a \fItdelta\fR that applies to the time. We recommend

explicitly using the AT keyword with timed reminders.

This function is the inverse of \fBnonomitted\fR. It adds \fIamt\fR
|
||||
days (which can be negative) to \fIstart\fR, \fInot counting omitted days\fR.
|
||||
The optional \fIwkday\fR arguments are additional weekday names to omit.

Consider this example:

.PP

.nf

OMIT 14 May 2009

SET a slide('2009-05-13', 5, "Sat", "Sun")

.PP
|

In this case, \fIa\fR is set to 2009-05-21. That's because we slide forward
|

by 5 days, not including Thursday, May 14 or Saturday and Sunday,

May 16 and 17. You can go backwards, too, so:
