There exisits an org2rem script you could add a hook to to automatically invoke, I guess, after inserting a timed appointment. Remind itself can run in daemon mode and has very easy syntax to run arbitrary commands at arbitrary times :-) As you only had a one-way push and no problems syncing remind and org it may well be a usable way. Nice introduction from remind's author: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/3529 Homepage: http://www.roaringpenguin.com/products/remind Greeting from the other side of the city Detlef _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
