planner-appt uses planner-cyclic-diary-file to find schedule
appointments. A line in that file such as 

Monday @12:00 lunch

in planner-cyclic-diary-file ought to add a schedule entry on Mondays,
and set up an appointment alert. It appears to work for me as intended;
I have suggested some things for the original poster to try in a
separate post.
