  1. Path: sparky!uunet!gossip.pyramid.com!pyramid!unify!openlook!openlook-request
  2. From: scowles@ckm.ucsf.edu
  3. Newsgroups: comp.windows.open-look
  4. Subject: cm2cal: reformat Calendar Manager events for pcal or calendar
  5. Message-ID: <l3sc8z2@openlook.Unify.Com>
  6. Date: 10 Nov 92 04:09:19 GMT
  7. Sender: news@Unify.Com
  8. Distribution: world

  11.  
  12. I built a utility that converts OW3 calendar manager entries to a
  13. format that is appropriate for calendar(1) and pcal(1L) usage.  I've
  14. called it cm2cal and included it in a shar file following this
  15. description.
  16.  
  17. While the OpenLook 3.0 Calendar Manager is very nice for merging time
  18. schedules among individuals, it can be difficult to work with when an
  19. OpenLook or X window session is not available (i.e. a character based
  20. tty).  This utility converts the information entered via Calendar
  21. Manager to a form directly usable by calendar(1) or pcal(1L).
  22.  
  23. Repeating entries are a special case in calendar manager.  To handle
  24. these, cm2cal utilizes the getdate(1L) package submitted to
  25. alt.sources by Rich Salz in 1990.  I have modified getdate to accept
  26. command line parameters so it can be used by cm2cal.  In addition, no
  27. prompts are issued for input.  I will mail a shar file of the modified
  28. version of getdate to interested parties.
  29.  
  30. If getdate(1L) is not found, repeating events will not appear in the
  31. output generated by cm2cal.  It is still useful for translating the
  32. single event entries from calendar manager, though.
  33.

  36. Originally written by Steven M. Bellovin <smb@research.att.com> while
  37. at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.  Later tweaked by
  38. a couple of people on Usenet.  Completely overhauled by Rich $alz
  39. <rsalz@bbn.com> and Jim Berets <jberets@bbn.com> in August, 1990; send
  40. any email to Rich.  Posted to alt.sources in 1990 by Rich Salz.
  41. Modified by S. Cowles (scowles@ckm.ucsf.edu) for use with cm2cal.

  45. The original calendar PostScript was Copyright (c) 1987 by Patrick
  46. Wood and Pipeline Associates, Inc. with permission to modify and
  47. redistribute.  Many others have worked on it since; see the
  48. Orig.ReadMe file and topline comments in pcal.c.
  49.  
  50. The following people contributed to Pcal v4.2 and v4.3:
  51.  
  52.         Overall coordinator:                            Joe Brownlee
  53.         "nearest" keyword:                              Andy Fyfe
  54.         "note/n" suggestion:                            Geoff Kuenning
  55.         VMS support, moon phase algorithm:              Richard Dyson
  56.         "-c" suggestion, new SYNOPSIS for man page:     Bruce Mohler
  57.         Other C and PostScript code:                    Andrew Rogers
  58.  
  59. EXAMPLE USAGES:
  60.  
  61. With calendar(1):
  62. $ cat /usr/spool/calendar/callog.scowles | cm2cal > cm.cal
  63. $ cp cm.cal $HOME/calendar
  64. $ calendar
  65.  
  66. With pcal(1L):
  67. $ cat /usr/spool/calendar/callog.scowles | cm2cal > cm.cal
  68. $ MN=1 YR=1993
  69. $ pcal -j -M -F sunday -c -f cm.cal $MN $YR > $HOME/calendar
  70.  
  71. To just check the output:
  72. $ cm2cal -t
