Repeating appointments

Repeating appointments

[Karen Cooke]

Hi 

I have an appointment scheduled like this:

*** TODO Library 
     SCHEDULED: <2008-02-20 Wed +7d 10:00>

When I mark it as done it loses the repeater and the time:

     SCHEDULED: <2008-02-27 Wed 00:00> 

I'm using 5.21 on Emacs 22.0.50.1 as part of the Carbon 
Emacs package (Aug 2005) for Mac OS X 10.3.9

Is there a way to have a timed repeating task?

Thanks

Karen Cooke

Yes. Move the repeat info to the end of the line, like this --

	<2008-02-15 Fri 09:00 +7d>

Incidentally, I use this with deadlines, and you can also have
advance warning of such a deadline:

	DEADLINE: <2008-02-15 Fri 09:00 +7d -2d>
