Multiple times now I've had a time-range like "birthday party from
1:30-4:00" or "day-conference from 9am to 6:30pm" and in those cases I
have to manually do the math to specify the DURATION:
REM Apr 1 2025 AT 1:30pm DURATION 2:30 MSG B'day party
REM Apr 2 2025 AT 9:00am DURATION 9:30 MSG day conference
As a stop-gap, I've created
# specify times as begin/end
# rather than begin/duration
FSET betime(b, e) "AT " \
+ b \
+ " DURATION " \
+ (e-b)
allowing me to do
REM Apr 1 2025 [betime(1:30pm, 4:00pm)] MSG B'day party
REM Apr 2 2025 [betime(9:00am, 6:30pm)] MSG day conference
and it Seems To Work On My Machine(tm)
:-P
Is there a better way I should be doing this?
For the short <2hr meeting, it's not a big deal to manually calculate
the time-difference, but our daughter's recent day-retreat meant
counting 9am-6:30pm on my fingers :*)
Thanks!
