Synopsis
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
[verse]
|
||||
*calcurse* [*-h*|*-v*] [*-N*] [*-an*] [*-t*[num]] [*-c*<file> | *-D*<dir>]
|
||||
[*-i*<file>] [*-x*[format]] [*-d* <date>|<num>]
|

|
||||
|
||||
Description
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
Calcurse is a text-based calendar and scheduling application. It helps keeping
|
||||
track of events, appointments and everyday tasks. A configurable notification
|
||||
system reminds user of upcoming deadlines, and the curses based interface can
|
||||
be customized to suit user needs. All of the commands are documented within an
|
||||
online help system.
|
||||
|
||||
Options
|
||||
-------

||||
|
||||
The following options are supported:

||||
*-a*, *--appointment*::
|
||||
Print the appointments and events for the current day and exit. 'Note:' The calendar
|
||||
from which to read the appointments can be specified using the *-c* flag.
|
||||
|
||||
*-c* <file>, *--calendar* <file>::
|
||||
Specify the calendar file to use. The default calendar is
|
||||
*~/.calcurse/apts* (see section 'FILES' below). This option is incompatible
|
||||

||||
|
||||
*-d* <date|num>, *--day* <date|num>::

||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
+
|
||||

|
||||
today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.
|
||||

||||

|
||||

|
||||
appointments can be specified using the *-c* flag.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
and exit.

||||

|
||||
'Note:' the calendar from which to read the appointments can be specified using
|
||||
the *-c* flag.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
When used with the *-a* or *-t* flag, also print note content if one is
|
||||
associated with the displayed item.
|
||||
|
||||
*-r*[num], *--range*[=num]::
|
||||
Print events and appointments for the 'num' number of days and exit. If no
|
||||
'num' is given, a range of 1 day is considered.
|
||||
|
||||
*-s*[date], *--startday*[=date]::
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
*--status*::
|
||||
Display the status of running instances of calcurse. If calcurse is
|
||||
running, this will tell if the interactive mode was launched or if
|
||||
calcurse is running in background. The process pid will also be indicated.
|
||||
|
||||
*-t*[num], *--todo*[=num]::
|
||||

|
||||
only todos having a priority equal to 'num' will be returned. The priority
|
||||
number must be between 1 (highest) and 9 (lowest). It is also possible to
|
||||
specify *0* for the priority, in which case only completed tasks will be
|
||||
shown.
|
||||
|
||||
*-v*, *--version*::
|
||||
Display *calcurse* version and exit.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Export user data to specified format. Events, appointments and todos are
|
||||
converted and echoed to stdout. Two possible formats are available: 'ical'
|
||||
and 'pcal'. If the optional argument 'format' is not given, ical format is
|
||||
selected by default.
|
||||
+
|
||||
'Note:' redirect standard output to export data to a file, by issuing a command
|
||||
such as:
|
||||
+
|
||||
----
|
||||
$ calcurse --export > my_data.dat
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
Notes
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
Calcurse interface contains three different panels (calendar, appointment list,
|
||||
and todo list) on which you can perform different actions. All the possible
|
||||
actions, together with their associated keystrokes, are listed on the status
|
||||
bar. This status bar takes place at the bottom of the screen.
|
||||
|
||||
At any time, the built-in help system can be invoked by pressing the '?' key.
|
||||
Once viewing the help screens, informations on a specific command can be
|
||||
accessed by pressing the keystroke corresponding to that command.
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
The calcurse options can be changed from the configuration menu (shown when 'C'
|
||||
is hit). Five possible categories are to be chosen from : the color scheme, the
|
||||
layout (the location of the three panels on the screen), notification options,
|
||||
key bindings configuration menu, and more general options (such as automatic
|
||||
save before quitting). All of these options are detailed in the configuration
|
||||
menu.
|
||||
|
||||
Files
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
The following structure is created in your $HOME directory (or in the directory
|
||||
you specified with the *-D* option), the first time calcurse is run:
|
||||
|
||||
----
|
||||
$HOME/.calcurse/
|
||||
|___notes/
|
||||
|___conf
|
||||
|___keys
|
||||
|___apts
|
||||
|___todo
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
The 'notes' subdirectory contains descriptions of the notes which are attached
|
||||
to appointments, events or todos. One text file is created per note, whose name
|
||||
is built using mkstemp(3) and should be unique, but with no relation with the
|
||||
corresponding item's description.
|
||||
|
||||
The 'conf' file contains the user configuration. The 'keys' file contains the
|
||||
user-defined key bindings. The 'apts' file contains all of the user's
|
||||
appointments and events, and the 'todo' file contains the todo list.
|
||||
|
||||
'Note:' if the logging of calcurse daemon activity was set in the notification
|
||||
configuration menu, the extra file 'daemon.log' will appear in calcurse data
|
||||
directory. This file contains logs about calcurse activity when running in
|
||||
background.
|
||||
|
||||
Environment
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
This section describes the environment variables that affect how calcurse
|
||||
operates.
|
||||
|
||||
*VISUAL*::
|
||||
Specifies the external editor to use for writing notes.
|
||||
*EDITOR*::
|
||||
If the 'VISUAL' environment variable is not set, then 'EDITOR' will be used
|
||||
as the default external editor. If none of those variables are set, then
|
||||
'/usr/bin/vi' is used instead.
|
||||
*PAGER*::
|
||||
Specifies the default viewer to be used for reading notes. If this variable
|
||||
is not set, then '/usr/bin/less' is used.
|
||||
|
||||
Bugs
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
Incorrect highlighting of items appear when using calcurse black and white
|
||||
theme together with a *$TERM* variable set to 'xterm-color'. To fix this bug,
|
||||
and as advised by Thomas E. Dickey (xterm maintainer), 'xterm-xfree86' should
|
||||
be used instead of 'xterm-color' to set the *$TERM* variable:
|
||||
|
||||
"The xterm-color value for $TERM is a bad choice for
|
||||
XFree86 xterm because it is commonly used for a
|
||||
terminfo entry which happens to not support bce.
|
||||
Use the xterm-xfree86 entry which is distributed
|
||||
with XFree86 xterm (or the similar one distributed
|
||||
with ncurses)."
|
||||

||||
