Hi, So, I found remind and it does almost what I want, now I've become greedy, I want it to do exactly what I want and also find other similar tools to manage contacts and todos. I hope you can help :)
I wonder if you all can give some help/critique on the following ideas: * Automatic reminder parsing: - using inotify [1] or something similar track all files (that are not .rem-files) in a specific filetree. Whenever a file in this filetree is modified or created it is parsed for REM-lines. - The found REM-lines are then written to a file with the same name name but with the .rem-extension (overwritten every time). - have remind walk the filetree (or maybe using inotify again update the ~/.reminders-file) * Managing todos: I am aware on how to use remind to manage free-floating todos, but I wonder if there is any simple way to single out items that are todos and not appointments (or other timely things)? * Managing contacts Is there a similar tool like remind for contacts? * A reminder tag What is it really? Can I use multiple tags for one reminder in some clever way (except defining them in the MSG)? (I'm trying to build a tag based mostly plain-text system to manage events, todos, contacts, notes, bookmarks, etc. One core feature I am looking for is the ability to tag data with multiple tags to narrow down the remaining set.) Ok, I am sorry if this is too much OT, just let me know and I'll refrain from similar posts in the future.
