I'm still searching for a calendar/PIM application that suits my needs
(or at least vaguely approximates to them).
I want a very simple application that allows me to enter reminders
etc. so I can remember appointments etc. I don't want the complexity
that most seem to offer but what I *do* want to do is be able to add
links of some sort to appointments that can point to what are
effectively diary entries. It can be web/HTML or just desktop, I'm
not too fussed.
I.e. I want a simple appointments diary with a way of linking it to
the entries in a journal/diary. It strikes me that this is a very
obvious sort of thing to want but I can't find anything that seems to
do it.
I have installed and tried plan by the way, it seems very 'clunky' to
me. It is quite flexible though, e.g. it's one of the very few such
applications which lets you actually see a view of today plus the next
few days rather than a week that starts on a fixed day or a month.
The 'execute' doesn't do what I need either, it runs a program when
the appointment is due (or at a time before). What I needed was a
way to run a program (to add a dairy entry) when you click on a date,
I've found a fairly crude way of doing this using Xdialog.
