> Example, i'm doing volunteer work on Friday, > > REM Friday FROM [today()] MSG Work at DT
'today()' is a function which returns the current day. Every time remind is called, the line is evaluated by replacing [today()] with a date when the remind was called. It doesn't make much sense to use it with FROM keyword. The reminder that you want is given by simply REM Friday MSG Work at DT If you do a volunteer work only during this winter, then the keywords are FROM and UNTIL REM Friday FROM 1 Dec 2016 UNTIL 1 March 2017 MSG Work at DT Keywords AFTER and BEFORE (that you mentioned) control the behaviour of the reminder if the event happens to be the OMIT day (e.g. a holiday). Let say that you know that there is no volunteer work in case Friday is a public holiday (which you specified as OMIT somewhere in the remind files), instead the volunteer work is moved to the next day. Then the syntax is REM Friday AFTER MSG Work at DT
