Repeat
======

Repeat an event or an appointment.

You must first select the item to be repeated by moving inside the appointment
panel. Then pressing 'r' will lead you to a set of three questions, with which
you will be able to specify the repetition characteristics:

  o        type: you can choose between a daily, weekly, monthly or
                 yearly repetition by pressing 'D', 'W', 'M' or 'Y'
                 respectively.

  o   frequency: this indicates how often the item shall be repeated.
                 For example, if you want to remember an anniversary,
                 choose a 'yearly' repetition with a frequency of '1',
                 which means it must be repeated every year. Another
                 example: if you go to the restaurant every two days,
                 choose a 'daily' repetition with a frequency of '2'.

  o ending date: this specifies when to stop repeating the selected
                 event or appointment. To indicate an endless 
                 repetition, enter '0' and the item will be repeated
                 forever.

Notes
-----

* Repeated items are marked with an '*' inside the appointment panel, to be
  easily recognizable from non-repeated ones.

* The 'Repeat' and 'Delete' command can be mixed to create complicated
  configurations, as it is possible to delete only one occurrence of a repeated
  item.
