$ rmind review PR tomorrow morning

It will automatically open the Reminders App and add your reminder to the default list.

Initial config

When you run rmind for the first time, you'll be asked to configure the list where the reminders will be put by default. You can change this anytime with rmind --config.

Configuration

Enter configuration mode by typing:

$ rmind --config

In this mode, you'll be able to do any of the following actions:

• Configure default list for reminders
• Register a new list alias

List Alias

You can add reminders to different lists by configuring aliases.

1. Enter config mode rmind --config
2. Select option Add a new list alias
3. Select the list you want to configure
4. Type an alias. It's recommended to keep this to 1 or 2 characters.

For example, if you set an alias of g for your list Groceries, you'll be able to add items this way:

$ rmind -l g cereal milk
