[comp.sys.sun] calendar program wanted

wsti@pbhyf.pacbell.com (Willis Stinson) (02/16/89)

I am looking for a stand-alone electronic calendar program with the
following features to run on our Sun file server:

1) graphic (suntools) and dumb terminal (vt100) interface
2) view calendar entries by day, week, month
3) calendar intersection for meeting scheduling
4) appointment reminders/alarms
5) print out or save calendars to file

I would appreciate hearing from you if you know of any public domain or
purchase software which satisfies all/most/some of these needs.  Thanks.

Bill Randle of Tektronix has been hard at work on a new release of
calentool, a SunView-based calendar/appointment book/almanac, some
features of which can be accessed from ordinary terminals.  It doesn't do
everything you want, but I know of nothing better (on the Sun or off).  It
is in beta test right now (I'm one of the testers and collaborators) and
should be posted to the network in the near future.  I am sure it will be
announced here, so keep reading SunSpots...

PS Keep up the great work, William LeFebvre!  Those who have carped at you in
   the past can't appreciate how demanding and thankless a task running
   something like SunSpots can be.
