Should it be customizable? Or should I just make it so either is
acceptable for highlighting. The former would be an interesting
exercise for me but might take longer, the second is just a matter of
working out a suitable regular expression and popping it in the right
place.


PS. I had a quick look at the ISO date format. It is quite complex.
Does remind need a regex that will cover all flavours of ISO dates or
just the obvious one of YYYY-MM-DD ?


Speaking only for myself, I would expect the simple method of making
both date formats highlight all the time, and I would think the obvious
date format is what is really wanted, with the rest of the ISO standard
being very much optional for this purpose.

If I copy a line of Remind code from someone else, it may very well have
the dates the other way, and think I would prefer to see those still
highlighted, rather than having to choose one or the other.
