That reminds me: there's also a "calendar" command that keeps track of
scheduled events; you enter them in your calendar file (.calendar is normal),
and if you type the command "calendar" it reminds you of the next few days'
worth of scheduled events; you can also use cpp directives to include
other files; the distribution includes some common calendars (civil holidays,
events in computer history, etc) you can put in the site-wide file. The
system will also send you email with scheduled events on the day they
are scheduled.
