No, unfortunately that is not possible - %<alnum> variables are for use in action lists only, and they are evaluated when the action list is executed. If you would like to have variable times for Calendar rule, you can achieve this by defining a 'context' field for the rule. Then you can activate/deactivate the rule with creating or deleting context(s). Another way for addressing this problem is to use a Perl miniprogram for the 'context' field - this is most appropriate if you would like to evaluate a certain arithmetic expression as a condition for action execution. hth, risto > > For example: > > type=Calendar > time=0 %hour * * * > desc=daily cleanup > action=shellcmd dailycleanup.sh > > I'm guessing there would be a problem with > scheduling if the %hour value > ever changed (as it could), but perhaps the time > could be updated with > the current %hour value only after the initially set > calendar event time > occurs.
