I use show reminders but add smarts, when a reminder occurs if I do it, I tag the tiddler with "sleep" if it is a reoccurring thing, or closed if it is finished.
You can then use the following in the ShowReminder Syntax; tag:"STRING" - This filters out tiddlers based on the tag applied to them. Supply a space-separated list of tags. If a tag name begins with an !, then only tiddlers which do not have that tag will be considered. For example tag:"examples holidays" will search for reminders in any tiddlers that are tagged with examples or holidays and tag:"!examples !holidays" will search for reminders in any tiddlers that are not tagged with examples or holidays. eg; tag:"!sleep !closed" The Source is http://remindermacros.tiddlyspot.com and also contains the showReminders Macro but heaps of other tiddlers are required for all the documentation and examples. eg; <<showReminders leadtime:-10...0 format:"|DIFF|''TITLE''|DATE |In TIDDLER|" >> Shows reminders upto 10 days old, I imagin you can make this 100 if you want. and <<showReminders leadtime:-10...0 format:"|DIFF|''TITLE''|DATE |In TIDDLER|" tag:"!sleep !closed ">> Shows reminders upto 10 days old, and not tagged sleep or closed. With the above example you could have a separate tiddler that shows <<showReminders leadtime:-100...-10 format:"|DIFF|''TITLE''|DATE |In TIDDLER|" tag:"!sleep !closed ">> which is the list of items that were not done in the mandated 10 days and requires immediate attention.
