Subject: [O] How to add "days since" in heading
Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2022 16:27:46 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87sfsicp6l.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
I'd like to have something like "diary-anniversary" but report "days since" a date, rather than "years since". For example, I have
> ** Birthdays
> %%(diary-anniversary 12 11 2010) Their %d%s birthday
And in my Agenda I then see:
> events: Their 21st birthday
I'd like to have something like this:
> ** Foo
> %%(diary-foo 2021-02-13) Bar [%d days]
And in my Agenda I then see:
> events: Bar [4 days]
That is, I would like to track how long since an event (in this case, how long a paper has been in review) without using SCHEDULING which makes things appear overdue if scheduled in the past.
Thanks,
-k.
