Subject: Monthly events based on count of specific weekdays
Date: Sun, 08 Nov 2009 16:41:39 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ws214lpo.fsf@benfinney.id.au> (raw)
Howdy all,
How can I set an event in Org mode that repeats every month, on a
specific weekday, on a week counted from the start of the month?
For example:
* every month on the first Tuesday of the month.
* every month on the third Sunday of the month.
* every first and third Wednesday of the month.
Taking “first Tuesday of the month”, if I set it this month on
<2009-11-15 Sun>, it should next repeat on <2009-12-20 Sun> and so on
each month. These do not do what I want:
* <2009-11-15 Sun +1m>
* <2009-11-08 Sun ++1m>
* <2009-11-08 Sun .+1m>
Each of these next repeats on <2009-12-15 Tue>, the wrong date.
How can I specify a repeating event to Org mode that achieves what I
described above?
