scheduling: skip weekends

scheduling: skip weekends

[Patrick Drechsler]

Hi,

is it possible to skip weekends when rescheduling a task using the 
"++1d" operator?

Example:

* TODO work task (not on weekends)
   SCHEDULED: <2009-11-27 Fr ++1d>

When changing the state to the DONE state, it will be rescheduled to the 
next day, no matter what day of the week that is. So changing the 
example above to DONE on a Friday will reschedule the task for Saturday. 
  Is it possible to reschedule it for Monday?

Regards,

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

no, this is not possible currently.

OK, thanks for the quick feedback.

Does this seem like a reasonable feature request?

Hi Patrick,

this sounds reasonable, but I don't currently have time to implement  
it.  Would be interested in a patch, though.

"Learning E-Lisp" would be one of those tasks for the weekend. ;-)

Is there a separate bug-tracker/feature-request interface besides this ml?

No.

But maybe we need one.
