> I had to solve this *exact* problem. Here's my solution:
>
> #=======================================================================
> # Garbage
>
> # Set garbday to the usual weekday of garbage collection where
> # Monday == 1 and Friday == 5. Set garbdayname to the matching
> # day name.
>
> # Example below: Friday
> set garbday 5
> set garbdayname "Friday"
>
> fset _garbhol(x) wkdaynum(x) == garbday && slide(x-garbday, garbday) != x
> fset _garbdel() iif($Tw != garbday, " (Delayed)", "")
>
> REM [garbdayname] AFTER OMITFUNC _garbhol MSG Garbage[_garbdel()]
> #=======================================================================
>
> To understand how this works, you'll need to look up the OMITFUNC clause
> and the "slide" function definition. And translate from Canadian
> ("garbage") to American ("trash") :)
>
> The basic idea is that the _garbhol function returns 1 if any of the
> preceding weekdays (including this one) is OMITted, and 0 otherwise.
