CHANGES TO REMIND
* Version 3.1 Patch 5
- MAJOR ENHANCEMENT: If you supply a directory name on the command line
or for an INCLUDE command, then Remind reads all *.rem file in that
directory (in the order returned by "glob")
- ENHANCEMENT: The plain-text calendar ("-c") can draw lines using VT-100
line-drawing characters if invoked as "-cl"
- ENHANCEMENT: The plain-text calendar can approximate SPECIAL COLOR reminders
using VT-100 color escape sequences if invoked as "-cc". (You can combine
the colors and line-drawing characters with -clc or -ccl.)
- ENHANCEMENT: The "-t" option can take a numeric argument n. In this case,
all reminders are assumed to have a delta of +n. (Without the argument,
an infinite delta is assumed, as before.) If a numeric argument is given,
the new system variable $DeltaOffset is set to the argument.
- MINOR ENHANCEMENT: The "-i" command-line option can be used to define
a function as well as set a variable. TODO: Update manpage.
- MINOR ENHANCEMENT: String constants can have embedded quotes "Like \"this"
- MINOR ENHANCEMENT: tkremind works better on small screens like that of
the Eee-PC.
- BUG FIX: Minor fix to HTML output courtesy of Ian! Allen.
- BUG FIX: Parse error in calendar mode was fixed.
* Version 3.1 Patch 4 - 2008-02-03
