I've been thinking about the combination of tools/applications needed to have PIM functionality at the console. This would allow me to use the same software on my desktop (FreeBSD) and NEC Mobilepro (NetBSD). Syncing - rsync should provide efficient syncing of email if I use the maildir email format. Since the address book is in one file, I'll have to be careful about where/when I make entries. I can script the rsync activities for ease of use. Email - mutt, fetchmail, msmtp and procmail can handle the email functions. Address book - abook can provide the address book and works with mutt. Schedule/Calendar - ??? Here's where I'm stumped. cal will show me calendars when I need then; but I don't know what to use to keep track of meetings and other appointments. calendar has lists of dates; but doesn't facilitate data entry and the format doesn't facilitate various fields of information (date, time, place, subject, contact, etc). Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Andrew Gould
