What Vaibhav desires might be achievable with current placeholders depending on 
a few things …

1) 'soap_for_encounters'  lets the user select a list of encounters for which 
LaTeX formatted progress notes are emitted, which should offer the ability to 
choose the encounter despite that it involves a bit of work to make the 
selection

2) 'emr_journal' accepts a <time range> in weeks but I do not know whether a 
value less than 1 week (such as 0.2 corresponding to 1.4 days) would throw an 
error. Also, this has the disadvantage of saving the desired <time range> hard 
coded into the template. I have been wondering whether the desired time frame 
could be inputted interactively but maybe the equivalent is achieved by 
selecting a series of encounters by using method 1
