Remind Changelog

What's new in Remind 3.1.13

Dec 18, 2013
  • BUG FIX: Sunrise/Sunset calculations greatly improved thanks to John McGowan. Accuracy should now be within a couple of minutes in most places.
  • BUG FIX: Allow specification of margins as low as 0 points in rem2ps, courtesy of Jonathan Kamens.
  • BUG FIX: Permit compilation with gcc 2.95 (which doesn't allow variable declarations after non-declaration statements in a block.)
  • BUG FIX: Several minor documentation errors corrected courtesy of Simon Ruderich.
  • BUG FIX: Spurious test harness failure was fixed.

New in Remind 3.1.10 (Nov 2, 2010)

  • A new THROUGH keyword lets you omit ranges of dates and simplifies some reminders.
  • Remind now correctly supports multibyte characters (such as UTF-8) in text-mode calendar output.
  • A given reminder can now have multiple TAG clauses.
  • A few minor bugs were fixed

New in Remind 3.1.9 (Jun 21, 2010)

  • A new "purge mode" has been added to clean expired reminders out of reminder files.
  • TkRemind has been enhanced to support the DURATION keyword.

New in Remind 3.1.8 (Mar 10, 2010)

  • A sophisticated scripting language and intelligent handling of exceptions and holidays.
  • Plain-text, PostScript and HTML output.
  • Timed reminders and pop-up alarms.
  • A friendly graphical front-end for people who don't want to learn the scripting language.
  • Facilities for both the Gregorian and Hebrew calendars.
  • Support for 12 different languages.

New in Remind 3.1.7 (Jun 1, 2009)

  • ENHANCEMENT: Wherever you could write "day Mon year", the parser now accepts "YYYY-MM-DD". This applies on the command-line and to the REM and OMIT keywords. You can avoid wrapping date calculations in the trigger() function in many cases.
  • ENHANCEMENT: New slide() built-in function eases some complicated reminders.

New in Remind 3.1.6 (Nov 16, 2008)

  • A new OMITFUNC clause gives you additional control and flexibility over "omitted days" calculations.
  • The new evaltrig() built-in function lets you evaluate triggers from within an expression.
  • The new weekno() built-in function returns the ISO 8601 week number of a date.
  • The "WEEK" special (supported by tkremind, rem2ps, and rem2html) lets you annotate calendar output with the week number.
  • Various other minor bugfixes and enhancements were implemented.
