,----[ (info "(org)Deadlines and scheduling") ]
| SCHEDULED
| Meaning: you are planning to start working on that task on the
| given date.
|
| The headline will be listed under the given date(1). In addition,
| a reminder that the scheduled date has passed will be present in
| the compilation for _today_, until the entry is marked DONE.
| I.e., the task will automatically be forwarded until completed.
|
| *** TODO Call Trillian for a date on New Years Eve.
| SCHEDULED: <2004-12-25 Sat>
|
| Important: Scheduling an item in Org mode should not be understood
| in the same way that we understand scheduling a meeting. Setting
| a date for a meeting is just a simple appointment, you should mark
| this entry with a simple plain time stamp, to get this item shown
| on the date where it applies. This is a frequent
| mis-understanding from Org-users. In Org mode, scheduling means
| setting a date when you want to start working on an action item.
