• Bug#267090: pcal: Would like enhanced define capability

    From Louis Taber@1:229/2 to All on Fri Aug 20 19:30:11 2004

    Package: pcal
    Version: 4.7.1-1
    Severity: wishlist

    The manual page states that "Pcal supports rudimentary ccp-like functionality". I could not define a symbol that would be replaced later.

    For example:

    define start 8/23/2004 # Beginning of semester

    Then use:

    start CIS136 Start
    7th day after start CIS136 Quiz 1
    14th day after start CIS136 Quiz 2

    This could help a LOT moving from one semester to the next.

    Full "C" arithmetic and macro capability would also be very nice.

    Supporting "week" in addition to "day" would also be great!
    For example:

    2ed week after start CIS136 Quiz 2


    Thanks. - Louis
