I am looking for an OS X app that will serve as a reminder program. In various past OS' I have run I have had programs usually called "remind" or "reminder" etc. that allow you to specify an event, and a set of reminder actions to take on that event. Typically, you run this program as part of your login routine, so that each day as you log in, it can pop up the relevant reminders.
All of the good ones I have used are rule based - they let you specify lots of neat actions via rules like:
Between this date and this date pop up this reminder
Between this date and this date, tell me how many days until this date (plus show my reminder)
Until this data, pop up this reminder
Every second Friday pop up this reminder
Usually, these rules are kept in a user editable text file, or are managed via a GUI rule editor - varies by program.
Does such a beast exist for Mac OS X?
I want to use it issue reminders like:
> Only 25 days left until my sisters birthday on January 25th
> It is payday today
> etc.
Essentially remind me of all important birthdays, anniversaries, etc. for a week or two in advance, as well as poping up a reminder on paydays that it is payday, and so on.
Any such apps out there?
