Adding a repeated task in Add a New Task line

ethansteinman says:
I want to set a reminder for an anniversary to repeat each year, but can't figure out the syntax to add it all at once. Do I have to find the new task and then manually change the repeat interval or is there a simple way to add something like:
"Remember your anniversary Repeat Every March 1 #Personal !1"
"Remember your anniversary Repeat Every March 1 #Personal !1"

Hi ethansteinman,
Sure, the shortcut for repeat is *, so you can do:
Remember your anniversary on March 1 *yearly #Personal !1
The full list of shortcuts is available on the Smart Add page.
Hope this helps!
