FR: Add business days to recurrence suffix codes

Open Gnossos opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Please add "b" to the recurrence suffixes. A suffix of "b" will have the task recur only on business days.

E.g.: add (A) Answer tech support queries due:2018-02-23 rec:1b

That should already be possible, doesn't it?

I've looked and looked but still haven't seen anywhere that even talks about it. (E.g. I searched https://www.topydo.org/static.html for "business" and got 0 hits.)

AFAIK, the only way to do so currently is use separate tasks for M-F and have them recur weekly.

It's an omission in the documentation, it seems. The time period of '1b' should work though.

It is definitely possible and it has been in topydo for 2 years: https://github.com/bram85/topydo/pull/115/commits/154d98d2df30842515165adb34082c497d98c6a7
