Sure would be nice to be able to set and unset some command line options inside the .reminders file, such as "-q".
Since I have to make all my reminders into timed reminders to work around the problem where they sort separately from the non-timed reminders, I'd like a way to say "I'm setting the time on these reminders but please don't start any background daemon processes" without having to remember to use the -q option every time I type "remind" (and in every script I have that uses remind). I thought I could simply throw away queued reminders using EXIT at the bottom of the .reminders file, but that only works if you don't use the "-g" option. Using EXIT with "-g" causes all the reminders to get thrown away, not just the queued ones. Drat. -- | Ian! D.
