REMIND version 3.0 for AmigaDOS
I DO NOT SUPPORT REMIND ON AmigaDOS. THE AmigaDOS PORT HAS NOT BEEN MAINTAINED
FOR QUITE A WHILE. IT MOST LIKELY NO LONGER WORKS.
REMIND is a sophisticated alarm/calendar program. Details are given
in the man page, "remind.1".
1 - Read the file COPYRIGHT.
2 - cd src; examine the files config.h and custom.h and adjust parameters
as needed
3 - If you are using SAS/C to compile Remind, type:
copy amiga-SCOPTIONS SCOPTIONS
smake -f smakefile
This will create remind, which is ready to be executed.
[Please note: I CANNOT SUPPORT THE AMIGA VERSION!]
See README.UNIX for more info.

REMIND version 3.0 for Borland C++

IMPORTANT NOTE: BCC SUPPORT MAY BE BROKEN. I DON'T CARE. I'M NOT
MAINTAINING IT ANY LONGER. IT MOST LIKELY NO LONGER WORKS.
1 - Read the file COPYRIGHT. (This may be called COPYRIGH on your
MS-DOS system.)
2 - You must use the Borland C++ OS/2 or MSDOS/Windows compiler.
3 - cd src; examine the files custom.h and config.h and adjust
parameters as needed
4 - Examine the file makefile.bcc and adjust parameters as needed.
5 - Type:
make -f makefile.bcc
This will make 'remind.exe' and 'rem2ps.exe' in the ..\os2-ex or ..\msdos-ex
directories.

REMIND version 3.0 for OS/2
I DO NOT SUPPORT REMIND ON OS/2. THE OS/2 PORT HAS NOT BEEN MAINTAINED
FOR QUITE A WHILE. IT MOST LIKELY NO LONGER WORKS.
This file contains instructions for compiling Remind under OS/2 with
Eberhard Mattes' emx/gcc compiler and with the Microsoft C compiler.
There are a number of targets in Makefile.os2, including OS/2-only
versions and bound versions (programs which run under OS/2 and DOS).
Note that there is also support for OS/2 using the Borland C
compiler--see the file README.BCC for details.
REMIND is a sophisticated alarm/calendar program. Details are given
in the man page, "remind.1".
1 - Read the file COPYRIGHT. (This may be called COPYRIGH on your
MS-DOS system.)
2 - To compile Remind for OS/2, you must use the Microsoft C compiler
or emx/gcc. You must also have a decent version of 'make', such
as dmake or GNU make.
3 - Change to "src" directory and examine the files config.h and custom.h
and adjust parameters as needed.
4 - Examine the file Makefile.os2 and adjust parameters as needed.
5 - Type:
make -f Makefile.os2
to see a list of targets. For example,
make -f Makefile.os2 emx
will build a 32-bit emx version which runs under OS/2 2.x and DOS.
NOTE that I do not have access to an OS/2 system, so support for this
system may not be as good as I'd like.
OS/2 support is courtesy of Russ Herman <rwh@gov.on.ca>, Norman Walsh
<norm@ora.com>, and Darrel Hankerson <hankedr@mail.auburn.edu>.
However, if you have problems, please contact me.
RELEASE NOTES -- miscellaneous info that couldn't go anywhere else!
1. POPUP REMINDERS -- NO LONGER WORK; CODE FOR THIS WAS REMOVED.
If you define the symbol OS2_POPUP in the OS/2 Makefile, you get
"full-screen popups" (as implemented by Russ Herman) for all MSG-
and MSF-type reminders. You may or may not like this feature.
One way of implementing popup reminders is to get the program
"pmpopup.exe" from ftp-os2.cdrom.com, and using Remind with the
'-k' option as follows from C:\STARTUP.CMD:
start /pm /inv /n remind "-kstart pmpopup %%s" remfile
Alternatively, if you have the Vrexx package, you can use this
procedure suggested by Norman Walsh:
Start remind like this in C:\STARTUP.CMD:
start /pm /inv /n \bin\remind -faz "-kstart popupmsg %%s" .reminders
The popups are done by POPUPMSG.CMD which looks like this:
-------------- Cut Here ---------- Cut Here ---------- Cut Here --------
/* PopUpMsg */
'@echo off'
parse arg theargs
if theargs = "" then
theargs = "Empty message"
call RxFuncAdd 'VInit', 'VREXX', 'VINIT'
initcode = VInit()
if initcode = 'ERROR' then signal CLEANUP
signal on failure name CLEANUP
signal on halt name CLEANUP
signal on syntax name CLEANUP
/* example VMsgBox call */
msg.0 = 1
msg.1 = theargs
call VDialogPos 50, 50
call VMsgBox 'Popup Message', msg, 1
/* end of CMD file */
CLEANUP:
call VExit
exit
-------------- Cut Here ---------- Cut Here ---------- Cut Here --------

REMIND version 3.0.19 for QDOS / SMSQ
$Id: README_QDOS,v 1.6 2005-09-30 03:36:20 dfs Exp $
I DO NOT SUPPORT REMIND ON QDOS. THE QDOS PORT HAS NOT BEEN MAINTAINED
FOR QUITE A WHILE. IT MOST LIKELY NO LONGER WORKS.
REMIND is a sophisticated alarm/calendar program. Details are given
in the documentation file, "remind_doc" (QUILL format).
[Note from David Skoll -- I was not sent the file `remind_doc', so
you're on your own here. You'll have to use the UNIX man pages.]
1 - Read the file COPYRIGHT.
2 - Change to the directory "src"
3 - Examine the Makefile and change any parameters which need to be
changed for your system. (The makefile for QDOS / SMSQ is
makefile_QDOS).
4 - Examine the files config_h and custom_h and adjust parameters as needed
5 - Examine lang_h and choose the language you want Remind to use.
There has no effort been put in making the language modules working
on the QL. You'll have to adjust the files for yourself to get
them working (umlauts etc).
6 - Execute "make;'-fMakefile_QDOS'". Be sure, that your DATA_DEFAULT
directory is the directory where the remind source files are
placed.
See README.UNIX for some more information about Remind.
RELEASE NOTES -- miscellaneous info that couldn't go anywhere else!
The QDOS / SMSQ version does not support the enhanced features of
the UNIX and/or OS/2 versions.
I had some problems with the sunrise() and sunset() functions,
but didn't examine it.
I've ported Remind on a SMSQ/SGC system. It should work on other
systems without problems. The compiler used was C68 v4.14c.
Remind should work with each QL or compatible with 512K or more RAM.
It'll however NOT work on a standard QL due to it's code size.
Any problems with the QDOS / SMSQ versions should be sent to:
Robert H. Klein
Bluecherstrasse 24
D-56349 Kaub
Germany
Remind no longer works on QDOS.
