+# Run this every minute (for example using cron) to receive a notification
+# when an event happens.
+#
+# The events are read from the following files in /home/sebastiano/.local/share/sdep folder:
+#       once: events that only happen once; full date needs to be specified
+#       daily: events that happen every day; only specify the time in HH:MM format
+#       weekly: only specify Weekday + time
+#       monthly: only specify day of the month + time
+
+# Requires: notify-send; the weekly part uses the non-portable -d option of
+# GNU date, which you might have to change if you are not on Linux (on some
+# systems you can accomplish the same with -j).
