Hi there,
I thought that some kind of calendar, or birthdays or todo plugin
would be nice. So I hacked this one. I´m sending to the list with the
hopes that someone could help me improve it. I need help with the
graphics (for now, just using the "blue" and "red" buttons), and with
the output (how to do a scroll box?). BTW it is using the "headlines"
skin maybe a better one should be made.
Well, about the plugins. The file remindicon.py should be put in
freevo/plugins/idlebar, and once active with
plugin.activate('idlebar.remindicon') will show a bluebutton on
idlebar if you have no reminders for today, or a redbutton if you have
at least one.
The file remind.py should be put in freevo/plugins and made active
with plugin.activate('remind', level=45). So you will now have a
"reminds" item on main menu. Once selected you will have the option to
see today reminds or the next 7 days reminds (it is easy to add more
options, like month reminds).
Of course, you will have to have the "remind" command installed,
either from source[1] or from your distro package.
both plugins can use the follow 3 variables:
REMIND_CMD (defaults to /usr/bin/remind)
REMIND_ARGS (use the default)
REMIND_FILE (if it´s not defined remind will try to read ~/.reminders)

I guess my poor english will need some fixes too. I know... I will
submit the files with the right svn diff command, but I´m looking for
some feedback first.
