NAME dtcm_insert - insert appointments into the calendar database SYNOPSIS dtcm_insert [-a file] [-c calendar] [-d date] [-s start] [-e end] [-v view] [-w what] DESCRIPTION The dtcm_insert utility is non-GUI interface to the CDE calendar and appointment services, used to add new appoint- ments to the calendar database via the RPC daemon rpc.cmsd(1). Appointments are added one at a time. Each of the components of an appointment can be specified using one of the command-line options. Alternatively, if no command- line options are specified the utility will prompt the user for the appointment information. Once an appointment is added, the list of appointments for the specified date (see the -d and -v options) is displayed. The following repeat and for values are supported: One Time N/A Daily Number of days Weekly Number of weeks Every Two Weeks Number of biweeks Monthly By Date Number of months Monthly By Weekday Number of months Yearly Number of years Monday Thru Friday Number of weeks Mon, Wed, Fri Number of weeks Tuesday, Thursday Number of weeks OPTIONS The following options are available: -a file Specify the name of a file containing calendar appointments to insert. The file should be in the standard calendar appointment format and can be created by dtcm_editor(1). -c calendar Specify the name of the target calendar. Calendar names typically take the form user@hostname, where user is a user's login name and hostname is the host machine name. An example is felix@cat. If no target calendar is specified, the calendar defaults to the current user at the current host machine. -d date Specify the date for the appointment(s) to be inserted, where date is a numeric date in the default Date Format, as specified in the Options dialog of the Calendar application. Certain other references such as ``today,'' ``Tuesday,'' ``tomor- row,'' are correctly calculated. If no date is specified, date defaults to the current date. -s start Specify the starting time for the appointment. The time is specified using the form hh:mm. If hh is greater than 12, 24-hour convention (for example, 15:30 instead of 3:30 pm ) is assumed. If hh is 0 to 12, an optional am or pm suffix can be used, with or without white space separating the suffix from the mm. If no suffix is used, am is assumed. If no starting time is specified, no time is asso- ciated with the inserted appointment. -e end The ending time for the appointment, in the same format as -s. Specifying an ending time without a starting time is an error. -v view Specify the view span of appointments to display. The view option-argument can be: day Display all appointments for the given date (see -d option). week Display the full week that contains the given date, starting with Sunday. month Display the entire month that contains the given date. -w what Specify the appointment description text. Up to 5 lines of text can be specified by placing \n (the literal characters \ and n, not <newline>) between lines. If not specified, what defaults to Appoint- ment. OPERANDS None. STDIN Not used. INPUT FILES None. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES The following environment variables affect the execution of dtcm_insert: LANG Provide a default value for the interna- tionalization variables that are unset or null. If LANG is unset or null, the corresponding value from the implementation-specific default locale will be used. If any of the internation- alization variables contains an invalid setting, the utility behaves as if none of the variables had been defined. LC_ALL If set to a non-empty string value, over- ride the values of all the other interna- tionalization variables. LC_MESSAGES Determine the locale that is used to affect the format and contents of diagnos- tic messages written to standard error and informative messages written to standard output. NLSPATH Determine the location of message catalo- gues for the processing of LC_MESSAGES. RESOURCES None. ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS The dtcm_insert utility takes the standard action for all signals. STDOUT The standard output contains the list of appointments for the specified view span, including the appointment just inserted. STDERR Used only for diagnostic messages. OUTPUT FILES None. EXTENDED DESCRIPTION None. EXIT STATUS The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. >0 An error occurred. CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS Default. FILES /usr/spool/calendar/callog.username /usr/dt/bin/rpc.cmsd APPLICATION USAGE In the -w option, it may be necessary to escape the \ char- acter (``\\n'') or enclose the string in quotes to avoid interpretation by the shell. EXAMPLES The simplest form of dtcm_insert has no arguments, where the user is prompted to enter the appointment, line-by-line: dtcm_insert Please enter the information for the appointment you wish to add. Defaults will be shown in parentheses.
