 8.3.1 Inserting deadlines or schedules
 --------------------------------------
 
 The following commands allow you to quickly insert(1) a deadline or to
 schedule an item:
 
 ‘C-c C-d     (org-deadline)’
      Insert ‘DEADLINE’ keyword along with a stamp.  The insertion will
      happen in the line directly following the headline.  Any CLOSED
      timestamp will be removed.  When called with a prefix arg, an
      existing deadline will be removed from the entry.  Depending on the
      variable ‘org-log-redeadline’(2), a note will be taken when
      changing an existing deadline.
 
 ‘C-c C-s     (org-schedule)’
      Insert ‘SCHEDULED’ keyword along with a stamp.  The insertion will
      happen in the line directly following the headline.  Any CLOSED
      timestamp will be removed.  When called with a prefix argument,
      remove the scheduling date from the entry.  Depending on the
      variable ‘org-log-reschedule’(3), a note will be taken when
      changing an existing scheduling time.
 ‘C-c C-x C-k     (org-mark-entry-for-agenda-action)’
      Mark the current entry for agenda action.  After you have marked
      the entry like this, you can open the agenda or the calendar to
      find an appropriate date.  With the cursor on the selected date,
      press ‘k s’ or ‘k d’ to schedule the marked item.
 ‘C-c / d     (org-check-deadlines)’
      Create a sparse tree with all deadlines that are either past-due,
      or which will become due within ‘org-deadline-warning-days’.  With
      ‘C-u’ prefix, show all deadlines in the file.  With a numeric
      prefix, check that many days.  For example, ‘C-1 C-c / d’ shows all
      deadlines due tomorrow.
 ‘C-c / b     (org-check-before-date)’
      Sparse tree for deadlines and scheduled items before a given date.
 ‘C-c / a     (org-check-after-date)’
      Sparse tree for deadlines and scheduled items after a given date.
 
    Note that ‘org-schedule’ and ‘org-deadline’ supports setting the date
 by indicating a relative time: e.g., +1d will set the date to the next
 day after today, and –1w will set the date to the previous week before
 any current timestamp.
