29 ;;; Commentary:
31 ;; Place planner-cyclic.el in your load path and add this to your .emacs:
33 ;; (require 'planner-cyclic)
35 ;; Create a diary file named ~/.diary.cyclic-tasks
36 ;; (or the value of planner-cyclic-diary-file). Example:
38 ;; Tuesday #B0 _ Study Japanese
39 ;; Friday #B0 _ Study Japanese (JapaneseStudies)
41 ;; The first will be a plain task, the second will be linked.
43 ;; By default, planner-cyclic creates multiple tasks if you let tasks build up
44 ;; (that is, the next Tuesday rolls around and you _still_ haven't
45 ;; marked the task as done.) To turn off this behavior:
47 ;; (setq planner-cyclic-diary-nag nil)
49 ;;; Code:
51 (require 'planner)
52 (require 'diary-lib)
54 (defcustom planner-cyclic-diary-file "~/.diary.cyclic-tasks"
55 "Diary file containing cyclic tasks."
56 :type 'string
57 :group 'planner)
59 (defcustom planner-cyclic-diary-nag t
60 "If non-nil, create tasks even if there are procrastinated cyclic tasks."
61 :type 'boolean
62 :group 'planner)
64 (defcustom planner-cyclic-task-description-format "%s from %s"
65 "Format used by `planner-cyclic-generate-task' when creating a task.
66 This string must be a valid control string for `format'. First format
67 argument is the task description read from `planner-cyclic-diary-file',
68 second argument is the date string.
70 If this format is changed when you already have some cyclic tasks
71 created with the old format, `planner-cyclic-create-tasks-maybe' will
72 add the same tasks with the new format, unless you convert existing
73 tasks to the new format manually."
