Hi Dianne,
Thanks! After seeing these compact forms and the new, included US
holidays recipe, I immediately removed those old commands from my file and
imported US.rem. The error is gone. I won't bother you with other errors
that may be present and exposed by the debugging you suggested. But,
thanks for the offer.
Thanks for your help and for remind!
P.S. I see you have Juneteenth specified in the included US.rem file.
Since this is actually a very new--the newest?--national holiday, I wonder
if you like the idea of limiting it to only 2021 and future years? If you
don't like that idea, I think I'd like that on my system. I tried adding
"FROM 1 June 2021", but that didn't work. How would you do that?
P.P.S.
Also, I found this in the file:
134
#############################################################################
135 #
#
136 # The following holidays were provided by Dave Rickel
#
137 # Modified by D. Skoll to give safe OMITs for moveable holidays
#
138 #
#
139
#############################################################################
I don't remember where I found the file, either. I think I remember
purging the bookmark when I found your git.
P.P.P.S. I intend to become maintainer of this package for Fedora. I just
don't have time right now. I'll let you all know when I get around to it.

Also, I have no idea where you got that file from, but it's way
over-complicated. You should use the file include/holidays/us.rem that
ships with Remind. A much better way to express Veterans Day comes from
that file:
OMIT 11 Nov MSG Veterans Day
REM 10 Nov SCANFROM -7 ADDOMIT SATISFY [$Tw==5] MSG Veterans Day (observed)
REM 12 Nov SCANFROM -7 ADDOMIT SATISFY [$Tw==1] MSG Veterans Day (observed)
And same for Independence Day:
REM July 4 SCANFROM -7 ADDOMIT MSG Independence Day
REM July 3 SCANFROM -7 ADDOMIT SATISFY [$Tw==5] MSG Independence Day
(observed)
REM July 5 SCANFROM -7 ADDOMIT SATISFY [$Tw==1] MSG Independence Day
(observed)
Regards,
Dianne.
