Over on Mastodon I was recently asked how to put an event on "every
other weekend". This is what I came up with:
REM Sat Sun SATISFY ((abs($T - date(2021,7,10)) % 14) < 2)
IF trigvalid()
REM [$T] MSG Every other weekend
ENDIF
That works, but I'd write it more succinctly as:
REM Sat Sun FROM 2021-07-10 SATISFY [(($T - '2021-07-10') % 14) < 2] MSG Every
other weekend
Is there a reason why we're avoiding
rem 21 jan 2020 *14 msg Every other Tuesday
(That's not a weekend, but the same construct should work on a Saturday
or a Sunday.)
Presumably because that would require two reminders rather than one.
