Note this program will only work with ORGANIZER v1.0 and 
not future version due to a slight change in data 
formats.  TODAY 3.2 should however error out without 
clearing your memory unlike some previous versions if 
ORGANIZER v1.1 or greater is used.  Supports European 
dates even though ORGANIZER v1.0 doesn't.

TODAY is a library to be used with ORGANIZER v1.0 by Jack 
Levy.  Two commands are stored within the library: TODAY 
and ADDORG.  These programs are designed to make up for 
some small deficiencies of the ORGANIZER program.

Quick overview of commands:

TODAY
*****

TODAY searches ORGANIZER's data file for annual events 
and appointments for the current date and displays them 
on the screen. 

Features:

 + Simple text browser for scrolling longer Appointments.
 + Text browser only called if appointments longer then
   seven lines.
 + Uses the small font from the UFL for nine informative
   display lines.
 + Displays up to seven lines of appointments and
   indicates if more exist that don't fit on the screen.
 + Display's informative No Annual Event or No
   Appointments if applicable.
 + Errors out if UFL, FNT1 or OrgDATA not found.
 + Small calendar to graphical show what day of a month
   your on.  Current day flashes for about a minute and a
   half.

Directions:

Just run TODAY and if the UFL and OrgDATA exist then 
you're all set.  Otherwise find those programs and 
install them NOW! 

Keys:

8: Scrolls one page up
2: Scrolls one page down
4 or LEFT ARROW: Moves one day back
6 or RIGHT ARROW: Moves one day forward
UP ARROW: Moves one week back
DOWN ARROW: Moves one week forward
TICK: Returns to current day
ON: Exits
OFF: Turns off

ADDORG
******

This program is designed to simplify addition of 
appointment.  When run you will be prompted to change the 
time and date to when the appointment should be set.  
Then you will be prompted to enter the text for the 
desired appointment.  Finally you will be prompted to set 
an alarm.  ADDORG will then insert your appointments in 
the proper day and if other appointments exist created by 
ADDORG the new appointments will be inserted in the 
proper time order.

Note this should work for any combination of 24 hour or 
AMPM time combinations.

Commands for changing time and date:

 + menu keys add to time or date
 + keys under menu subtract
 + DEL resets to current time and date
 + enter enters
 + ON cancels

Appointment entering information:

   An input line will appear with all the standard 
commands.  An alternate can be used by storing a command 
for the editor in EDIT in the home menu.  

   EXAMPLE
   << TED >> 'EDIT' STO

   If STRINGWRITER is used this may be a tricky 
accomplishment but can be done.

Alarm setting information:

   Finally you will be prompted for when and if to set an 
alarm.  This way you can schedule the appointment for the 
correct time and have an alarm go off ten minutes 
earlier.  The menu keys correspond to the number of 
minutes before the appointment to set an alarm any other 
key will skip setting an alarm.  ADDORG will set an alarm 
to run TODAY or 'ADDORGEXEC' in the home directory if it 
exists.  ADDORGEXEC can be anything you want to run to 
announce you have an appointment.
