Hiho!
I'm using org with the same set of files both at work and at home
(synchronized via svn at the moment).
I have regular tasks that I do every day, but some only on workdays.
I'd like to have a robust way to specify that a certain task should be
executed Monday-Friday. When I tick it as DONE on Friday, the schedule
should switch to the next Monday.
I've tried specifying several timestamps with ++1w, each for a
different day, but that is not robust. For some reason, org will
always switch the first timestamp one week forward, in addition to the
one for the current day.
( just +1w doesn't help either )
Is there a solution for this already? Otherwise I guess this is a
feature request. :)
Kind regards
FDF

I copy the task into 5 tasks and make them repeat weekly (Monday,
Tuesday, ..., Friday) That works well enough for me but I don't have
lots of these types of tasks.

Hi Friedrich,
I don't know a work-around other than what Bernt proposed, or other
than living with the fact that these entries will show up uselessly,
during the weekend.
I don't see a pressing need to add this, time stamps are complex enough.
You have easily have things only on weekends, using diary sexp
entries, but not tasks, sorry.
