;;
;; appt.el - visible and/or audible notification of
;; appointments from diary file.
;;
;;
;; 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
;; package is activated. Additionally, the appointments list is
;; recreated automatically at 12:01am for those who do not logout
;; every day or are programming late. It is also updated when the
;; `diary-file' (or a file it includes) 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 `appt-disp-window-function' and
;; `appt-delete-window-function'. For instance, you could be set them
;; to functions that display appointments in pop-up frames, which are
;; lowered or iconified after `appt-display-interval' minutes.

`appt-display-mode-line'

time of each appointment, once reminders start.
`appt-display-interval'
Interval in minutes at which to display appointment messages.
`appt-display-diary'
Non-nil means display the diary whenever the appointment list is
initialized (e.g. the first time we check for appointments each day).
The following variables are only relevant if reminders are being
displayed in a window:
`appt-display-duration'
Number of seconds for which an appointment message is displayed.
`appt-disp-window-function'
Function called to display appointment window.
`appt-delete-window-function'
