Hello, remind-ers. I may have found a potential bug, and I have two feature 
requests.

I just upgraded my OpenBSD box to 7.7 (REMIND 05.03.05), and afterward, found 
this error after running both "rem -c+1 -w125" and "rem -p25" commands:

/home/brock/.reminders(4698): `%2' substitution sequence should not be used 
without an AT clause

The offending line:

REM Jun 9 2026 MSG 
https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&sca_esv=d985d063023eb21d&q=honk+if+you%27d+rather+be+watching+the+1999&uds=ADvngMiZa8U0f9fevBUz1M0Bj7RqCfNr7T87UIFMtHfcjaAA9EblAnltPfDGaI8eN5

It appears that remind is reading the % symbol after msg inside the URL in my 
reminder, which is throwing an error. Is this my fault? Should I refrain from 
putting complex URLs in my reminders?
I tried putting the URL in "quotes" and that didn't help.

Second, a feature request for rem2html:

I run rem2html to export my monthly calendar to my phone as html document. 
While I'm able to find today's date by scrolling around for it, it still takes 
a few minutes to scroll around to find the box with today's tasks. Would it be 
possible to put an html anchor for "today" and/or any other notable days like 
"last day of the month", etc, so that opening the html document opens right to 
it?

Finally a request for wyrd.

As wyrd was abandoned for some time, the person who used to maintain wyrd at 
OpenBSD stopped, and now that person won't reply to me. Jochen has helpfully 
resurrected it, but says that he's not an OpenBSD person, so he's not going to 
support it there. Would anyone volunteer to step up and maintain the wyrd 
package at OpenBSD? I don't speak a word of OCaml, or else I'd do it.

I love remind, rem2html, and wyrd -- I use them every day, and tell people 
about it whenever I can.

Thanks!
Robert
