The # TKTAGnnn ... # TKEND comment pairs are hacks to allow TkRemind to edit the reminders. The big comment that starts # -global-OptionType ... is a Tk list that lets TkRemind remember the state of the "Add Reminder" form completely, without having to parse the REM command. It's all an evil hack. If you were to write your own, I think the only sane approach would be to write it in Tcl, because doing it in any other language would mean having to recreate Tcl's list syntax. The WriteReminder procedure from TkRemind is a good starting point. Also see RemindDialogToOptions, which encodes the state of the dialog box in a Tcl list.
