etm Description

An agenda manager etm (Event and Task Manager) uses text files in order to store events and tasks, provides a command line interface for viewing tasks and events in a variety of convenient ways and a curses-based GUI for creating and modifying events and tasks as well as viewing them. Alarms are supported for events and repetition for both events and tasks in a powerful and flexible manner.Compared to the combination of wxRemind and yeaGTD, etm provides the following advantages:- an agenda view that shows events and tasks together for the next few days rather than one day at a time in separate task and event windows;- a quick and simple way to enter events and tasks on a single line;- support for remind but also an independent way of entering events with contexts, notes and optional alarms;- an interactive GUI that uses curses and thus requires nothing more than a terminal window. Here are some key features of "etm": · Quickly enter an event or task on a single line using a simple format. · Add notes that display with the relevant event or task. · Specify a list of minutes prior to an event at which to trigger early warning alerts. · Specify a number of days prior to the due date to be reminded to begin a task. · Display tasks in customizable colors which depend upon their due dates. · Keep complete records of the dates when tasks were completed. · Easily specify tasks that repeat in complex ways, e.g., the first Tuesday after a Monday in November every four years (Presidential election day). See Repetition examples. · Quickly enter dates and times using fuzzy parsing. · View events and tasks sorted by date, project or context. · Limit the display to events or tasks whose titles, notes, projects and/or contexts match (regex) search string(s). · Set 'etmlocale' in ~/.etmrc to see dates and calendars in your native language. Other settings determine the first day of the week and the words and phrases used in displays and alerts. · Check the status of your alert queue. · Pop up a twelve month planning calendar. · View sun and moon data (from the US Naval Observatory) for a location specified in your ~/.etmrc for a (fuzzy parsed) date. · View local weather conditions and forecast (from yahoo weather) for a location specified in your ~/.etmrc. · View, edit and create remind reminders. Requirements: · dateutil What's New in This Release: · Various bug fixes and cosmetic improvements.
