AGNMERGE V1.0.1

Introduction

This program will merge a number of Psion 3a agenda files into a single
agenda file.   During the merge process it will optionally delete memos or
alarms, delete
crossed out entries, change the display occurrence or repeating entries,
omit entries that are outside a date range, prefix all or part of the
agenda file name
to each entries from that agenda, or change the style of entries.  All
these options can be saved to a configuration file for repeated use.

This program was written to solve the following problem.  I have an agenda
file for work only, an another for home only.  I have other agendas which
contains
details of the cycling club with which  I ride, and another of
sunrise/sunset times.  To put all these together in a single agenda
produces a file so big that
I would be very slow to work with.  It would sometimes present too much
information.  Each of my agenda files are about 20k.  This is an acceptable
size to
work with.  However, when setting an appointment you cannot see potential
clashes between the agendas.  I started manually merging them, but the file
was too
big to be manageable, and alarms would be duplicated or would still go off
unless deleted in two places.  AGNMERGE will optionally strip out memos and
alarms,
and will merge within a date range.  Currently I merge two months ahead and
the combined agenda is 24k.
