I find that a global time delay for each appointments is inconvenient. For example I need to be warned an hour before an appointment downtown and only 5 minutes for a meeting at work. I have hacked appt.el to keep track of a delay for each appointment. The function appt-add is compatible with the old appt. It should be applied after the feature freeze of emacs. You can download the new version from my website http://kanis.fr/blog-emacs.html Now I would like to hook this change this with org. I don't think it would be a good idea to extend the timestamp as it's already pretty complex. How could I add the number of minute in an entry in a way that's not obtrusive? Thanks for your ideas. -- Ivan Kanis http://kanis.fr Parting is all we know of heaven, And all we need of hell. -- Emily Dickinson
