[QUOTE="Malch, post: 1351486, member: 200858"] I've been trying to figure out a way to make todos (reminders) that recur every day (or week). iCal doesn't have this functionality built in, but it seems possible with AppleScript. The problem is, I am clueless when it comes to AppleScript and I can't get anything to work beyond very simple commands. If someone has done this, I would be delighted to see the code. I do have some programming experience (mostly C++), so I'm sure if I saw it I would understand it right away. I'll say the task seems very simple if I can figure out how to access the data and actions in iCal. Here's some pseudo code for what I'd do: [CODE]if(time = 00:00) { for(each reminder that I want to recur) { for(each reminder in iCal) { if(name of reminder I want to recur = name of reminder in iCal) break make the reminder I want to recur } } }[/CODE] Can anyone help me translate this into AppleScript? Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
