1<chapter><title>Today</title>
2<para>
3The Today application is a convenient way to view both the appointments from the Calendar and the tasks from the
4Todo application for the current day, as well as seeing what e-mail is available. It provides no interface for editing your
5appointments, or your tasks, but if you click the icon of the application, it will be launched. For those familiar with
6PocketPC, this is similar to the Today application included with that.

9<para>
10You can configure the Today application by pressing the wrench icon in the bottom left corner of the window. This will
11open the configuration dialog, from which you can change various settings related to display, amongst other things.
12</para>
13<section><title>Calendar</title>
14<para>
15The Calendar tab in the configuration dialog lets you change the settings for how your appointments should be displayed.

17<para>
18The first field allows you to select the number of appointments to be shown in the Calendar section of the application.
19If you add more appointments, you will be taking away screen space from the other sections.
20The "Should location be shown?" is for determining exactly that. If checked, the location field of the appointment
21will be shown in the Today main view.
22"Show only later appoinmtnets" will only show appointments that begin after the current time.
23Finally, if the "Should the notes be shown" checkbox is checked, then the notes for each appointment will be visible
24in the main view.

27<section><title>Tasks</title>
28<para>
29The Tasks tab lets you change how tasks are displayed in the Today main view.
30</para>
31<para>
32The first field lets you chose how many tasks to display in the main view. The more that are shown, the more space
33is taken from the other categories.

36<section><title>Miscellaneous</title>
37<para>
38The Misc. tab allows you to set global settings that affect the entire application.

40<para>
41The "Clip after how many letters" field lets you change the number of characters from each appointment or task that
42are displayed in the main view. The "Should today be autostarted on resume" checkbox lets you set whether or not
43the Today application should be started each time you resume from a suspend or not.<note><para>This only works
44if you have a full installation of Opie. If you are running Today on some other environment (Qtopia, for example)
45this feature will not work.</para></note>The final field, "Activate autostart after how many minutes", lets you set
46the number of minutes that the device must be suspended before the Today application will start automatically on
47resume. For instance, if this is set to 5, and you suspend the device for 3 minutes, when you resume the device, the
48Today application will not start automatically. However, if it is set to 5 and you leave the device in the suspend state
49for 6 minutes, then Today will be started automatically upon resume.
