+
+RT::Action::LinearEscalate - will move a ticket's priority toward its final priority.
+
+=head1 This vs. RT::Action::EscalatePriority
+
+This action doesn't change priority if due date is not set.
+
+This action honor the Starts date.
+
+This action can apply changes silently.
+
+This action can replace EscalatePriority completly. If you want to tickets
+that have been created without Due date then you can add scrip that sets
+default due date. For example a week then priorities of your tickets will
+escalate linearly during the week from intial value towards final.
+
+=head1 This vs. LinearEscalate from the CPAN
+
+This action is an integration of the module from the CPAN into RT's core
+that's happened in RT 3.8. If you're upgrading from 3.6 and have been using
+module from the CPAN with old version of RT then you should uninstall it
+and use this one.
+
+However, this action doesn't support control over config. Read </CONFIGURATION>
+to find out ways to deal with it.
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+LinearEscalate is a ScripAction that will move a ticket's priority
+from its initial priority to its final priority linearly as
+the ticket approaches its due date.
+
+It's intended to be called by an RT escalation tool. One such tool is called
+rt-crontool and is located in $RTHOME/bin (see C<rt-crontool -h> for more details).
+
+=head1 USAGE
+
+Once the ScripAction is installed, the following script in "cron"
+will get tickets to where they need to be:
+
+ rt-crontool --search RT::Search::FromSQL --search-arg \
+ "(Status='new' OR Status='open' OR Status = 'stalled')" \
+ --action RT::Action::LinearEscalate
+
+The Starts date is associated with intial ticket's priority or
+the Created field if the former is not set. End of interval is
+the Due date. Tickets without due date B<are not updated>.
+
+=head1 CONFIGURATION
+
+Initial and Final priorities are controlled by queue's options
+and can be defined using the web UI via Configuration tab. This
+action should handle correctly situations when initial priority
+is greater than final.
+
+LinearEscalate's behavior can be controlled by two options:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item RecordTransaction - defaults to false and if option is true then
+causes the tool to create a transaction on the ticket when it is escalated.
+
+=item UpdateLastUpdated - which defaults to true and updates the LastUpdated
+field when the ticket is escalated, otherwise don't touch anything.
+
+=back
+
+You cannot set "UpdateLastUpdated" to false unless "RecordTransaction"
+is also false. Well, you can, but we'll just ignore you.
+
+You can set this options using either in F<RT_SiteConfig.pm>, as action
+argument in call to the rt-crontool or in DB if you want to use the action
+in scrips.
+
+From a shell you can use the following command:
+
+ rt-crontool --search RT::Search::FromSQL --search-arg \
+ "(Status='new' OR Status='open' OR Status = 'stalled')" \
+ --action RT::Action::LinearEscalate \
+ --action-arg "RecordTransaction: 1"
+
+This ScripAction uses RT's internal _Set or __Set calls to set ticket
+priority without running scrips or recording a transaction on each
+update, if it's been said to.
