%?... Special Texts
The %?... special texts which can be used in the text part
of a Gcal resource file line can coarsely be separated into three categories.
So there are special texts used for suppression output of fixed dates in
definite cases. Others are replaced by particular texts or cause the shell
to start external commands.
See section %?... special texts,
for a general description of the special texts which may be used
in the text part of a Gcal resource file line.
Some of these special text may have an optional simple or special date argument (called date in the further context) or another argument (called argument in the further context). The date argument must be given in one of the following date formats in case a special text is directly trailed by it:
yyyy[mm[dd|wwwn]]
yyyy*d|wn[www]
yyyy@e|t|dvar[[+|-]n[www]]
Special texts that may have a date argument must always be trailed by a whitespace character which is removed itself in output, no matter whether date was given or not!
See section Summary of all %?... Special Texts,
for a short-list of all applicable special texts.
