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 + with -*D*. + +*-d* <date|num>, *--day* <date|num>:: + Print the appointments for the given date or for the given number of + upcoming days, depending on the argument format. Two possible formats are + supported: ++ +-- + * a date (possible formats described below). + * a number *n*. +-- ++ +In the first case, the appointment list for the specified date will be +returned, while in the second case the appointment list for the *n* upcoming +days will be returned. ++ +As an example, typing *calcurse -d 3* will display your appointments for +today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow. ++ +The date format used is the one specified in the ``General options'' +menu. Four formats are available: ++ +-- + 1. mm/dd/yyyy + 2. dd/mm/yyyy + 3. yyyy/mm/dd + 4. yyyy-mm-dd +-- ++ +'Note:' as for the *-a* flag, the calendar from which to read the +appointments can be specified using the *-c* flag. + +*-D* <dir>, *--directory* <dir>:: + Specify the data directory to use. This option is incompatible with -c. + If not specified, the default directory is *~/.calcurse/*. + +*-h*, *--help*:: + Print a short help text describing the supported command-line options, + and exit. + +*-i* <file>, *--import* <file>:: + Import the icalendar data contained in 'file'. + +*-n*, *--next*:: + Print the next appointment within upcoming 24 hours and exit. The indicated + time is the number of hours and minutes left before this appointment. ++ +'Note:' the calendar from which to read the appointments can be specified using +the *-c* flag. + +*-N*, *--note*:: + 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]:: + Print events and appointments from 'date' and exit. If no 'date' is given, + the current day is considered. + +*-S*<regex>, *--search*=<regex>:: + When used with the *-a*, *-d*, *-r*, *-s*, or *-t* flag, print only the items + having a description that matches the given regular expression. + +*--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]:: + Print the *todo* list and exit. If the optional number 'num' is given, then + 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. + +*-x*[format], *--export*[=format]:: + 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.

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.
