Hi,
I have a task with the following timestamp:
<2017-09-18 Pzt 14:25-18:40 +1w>
which represents an event that's going to repeat every week during a
certain period (it's not a TODO item). With this timestamp however in
my agenda it repeats forever until when I'll finally archive it.
Ideally I'd have sth like the following:
<2017-09-18 Pzt 14:25-18:40 +1w #9>
where the final ‘#9’ means that the event will only repeat _8 times_
(i.e. 9 times with the initial instance). Is this somehow already
possible, or else would it be plausible to implement this mainstream (I
could try to generate a patch in the coming weeks for this, tho it would
take a while as I'm not very familiar with org's innards and I wont have
lots of free time)?
I have tried the following:
<2017-09-18 Pzt 14:25-18:40 +1w>--<another date>
but then the entry appears (unsurprisingly) on my agenda every day,
instead of only on Monday, which I dont want at all (these are lessons
that repeat every certain day of each week of a certain period, and they
are many).
Thanks in advance,
Göktuğ.
