No, I do have cal, but calendar is a separate command, that reads a
calendar file in the user's home directory and spits out any dates it finds
in the file as events of the day. So if I had calendar file that had a
line like:
Meeting on 1/28/2007 at Joe's house,
when invoked, the calendar command would spit the line back out on 1/27 and
1/28, as calendar events for "tomorrow" (when invoked on 1/27) and "today"
(when invoked on 1/28).
This may not be a good solution but your calandar fuction is part of the
evolution mail program as it is part of Outlook under Windows.
There's even a tie-in to the Gnome menu-bar date display so that alarm
popups happen even if evolution isn't open. I'm not sure how reliable
it is now. I used it for a while with the exchange connector, but quit
some time ago when the connector broke in an update. Evolution has its
own calendar but I needed access to the group calendar on an exchange
server and set something else up.
