I have a bunch of todos that I like to do "about every other day" so I
do this:
* TODO foo
SCHEDULED: <2008-10-17 Fri +2d>
The problem comes when I missed the date on Friday and am looking at my
agenda on Monday. I'd like it to show that I'm overdue on that instance
of the task (since I didn't complete it Friday). The next week,
however, it doesn't show it on the agenda until Tuesday.
IMHO, if today is beyond the date of a repeating todo it should be shown
today regardless of the repeat setting until I reset the date by marking
it done (and having it autoskip forward).
(Actually, while I'm at it is there a way to get it to autoskip 2 days
from today rather than 2 days from the date in the stamp?)

In my agenda, his entry does show on Monday, as overdue for one day.

Ahh... the entries I have are straight stamps, not scheduled items. IE
* TODO foo <2008-10-17 Fri +2d>
I'll go fix that; thanks!

CD> ????? The example you had in your mail was:
Yep. You're right that I blew the example and realized what the issue
was after reading your response. See, you helped!
