;; appt.el - visible and/or audible notification of
;; appointments from diary file.
1991-01-30 21:30:11 +00:00
;;
;;
;; Thanks to Edward M. Reingold for much help and many suggestions,
;; And to many others for bug fixes and suggestions.
;;
;;
;; This functions in this file will alert the user of a
;; pending appointment based on his/her diary file. This package
;; is documented in the Emacs manual.
;;
;; To activate this package, simply use (appt-activate 1).
;; A `diary-file' with appointments of the format described in the
;; documentation of the function `appt-check' is required.
;; Relevant customizable variables are also listed in the
;; documentation of that function.
;;
;; Today's appointment list is initialized from the diary when this
2008-08-26 03:03:21 +00:00
;; package is activated. Additionally, the appointments list is
;; recreated automatically at 12:01am for those who do not logout
2008-08-26 03:03:21 +00:00
;; every day or are programming late. It is also updated when the
;; `diary-file' is saved. Calling `appt-check' with an argument (or
;; re-enabling the package) forces a re-initialization at any time.
;;
;; In order to add or delete items from today's list, without
;; changing the diary file, use `appt-add' and `appt-delete'.
;;
;; Brief internal description - Skip this if you are not interested!
;;
;; The function `appt-make-list' creates the appointments list which
;; `appt-check' reads.
;;
;; You can change the way the appointment window is created/deleted by
;; setting the variables
;;
2008-04-02 03:52:36 +00:00
;; appt-disp-window-function
;; and
2008-04-02 03:52:36 +00:00
;; appt-delete-window-function
;;
;; For instance, these variables could be set to functions that display
;; appointments in pop-up frames, which are lowered or iconified after
;; `appt-display-interval' minutes.

;; In Emacs-21.3, the manual documented the following procedure to

;; What was really needed was to add the hook and load this file.
;; Calling (diary 0) once the hook had been added was in some sense a
2008-08-26 03:03:21 +00:00
;; roundabout way of loading this file. This file used to have code at
;; the top-level that set up the appt-timer and global-mode-string.
;; One way to maintain backwards compatibility would be to call
2008-08-26 03:03:21 +00:00
;; (appt-activate 1) at top-level. However, this goes against the
;; convention that just loading an Emacs package should not activate
2008-08-26 03:03:21 +00:00
;; it. Instead, we make appt-make-list activate the package (after a
;; suggestion from rms). This means that one has to call diary in
;; order to get it to work, but that is in line with the old (weird,
;; IMO) documented behavior for activating the package.
;; Actually, since (diary 0) does not run diary-hook, I don't think
;; the documented behavior in Emacs-21.3 would ever have worked.
;; Oh well, at least with the changes to appt-make-list it will now
;; work as well as it ever did.
;; The new method is just to use (appt-activate 1).
