Maybe use SCHEDULED: instead of DEADLINE: ?
I'm afraid this won't solve Wanrong's problem: you don't get warned
about scheduled items.
Wanrong: maybe you can turn your items into scheduled items and then use
`org-check-before-date' in the relevant file to get the list of upcoming
scheduled items.
But that's still a manual workaround...
Thanks a lot for the suggestions, but manual workaround does not work
for me, as I want org to take care of giving me a notification in
advance in the agenda buffer.
For SCHEDULED and plain active time stamp, I don't think we need to have
a default ahead notification setting as with deadlines, but it would
really be nice to support the <..... -3d> format. It would be even nicer
to have a new keyword (like "SCHEDULED@") that indicates a strictly
scheduled item (just a fancy term for "appointment") and hence a default
ahead notification setting can be applied. The lack of real appointment
support in org-mode in fact is a little bit puzzling to me, since
SCHEDULED item may or may not be strictly scheduled, while plain time
stamp item may or may not be something that needs to take actions on (as
it could be just an event).
