Hi Glenn,

I use appointment with org. I find that a global time delay for each
appointments is inconvenient. For example I need to be warned an hour
before an appointment downtown and only 5 minutes for a meeting at
work. I have hacked appt.el to keep track of a delay for each
appointment. The function appt-add is compatible with the old appt.

The last patch I posted on emacs devel broke appt-add. I have made the
third variable optional so that it's backward compatible. Could you
apply this patch to trunk?
