say "[line break]".

say "[first custom style][bracket]Remember that you can move towards your goal locations with GO TO...[close bracket][roman type][paragraph break]";

let N be the number of filled rows in the Table of Tasks Pending;

decide on N.

try planning;

say "[first custom style][bracket]To go over our current goals, type GOALS at any time.[close bracket][roman type][paragraph break]";

continue the action.

[Understand "schedule" or "summary" or "history" or "review" or "chapters" as scheduling.
