Can you have all of these include a path?

include ~/.config/remind/this
or
include $HOME/.config/remind/that

Do you actually need ~/.reminders for something, or it that just
your editing short cut? Because I'd use an env variable instead of
a symlink myself. "export REMINDERS=$HOME/.config/remind/reminders.rem"
"vi $REMINDERS"

I ask because noticing a filename is a symlink and then doing things
differently based on that seems like it will have a lot of unexpected
effects for a lot of other people.
