Version 2.1

Thu, 21 Feb 2008 00:00:00 -0700

Crème Rappel has graduated from a simple shell script using at(1), to a Ruby application completely independent of at(1). This greatly simplifies installation, and makes ~~feature creep~~ new features a practical possibility.

In fact, the new features are already rolling in. Time specifications are still at-compatible, but you can shorten everything to the most unambiguous. For example, + 5 minutes becomes +5m. Also supported are YYYY-MM-DD dates and seconds. Here's the pseudo-BNF:

timespec = [now] + count units | time [date]
units    = seconds | minutes | hours | days | weeks | months | years
time     = [H]HMM[.SS] [am|pm] | [H]H:MM[.SS] [am|pm] | midnight | noon | teatime
date     = month-name day | DD.MM.[YY]YY | MM/DD/[YY]YY | MMDD[YY]YY | [YY]YY-MM-DD |
           today | tomorrow
