Convert iCal to Remind

iCal2Rem

Group all calendars you want to sync with Remind and publish them. Plug the url to the published .ics into the following command:

curl http://homepage.mac.com/username/.calendars/toRemind.ics | ical2rem.pl --label "iCal2Reminder" >~/.ical2rem

Convert Remind to iCal

Rem2ics

Turn on Personal Web Sharing in the Sharing pane of System Preferences so that you can get a valid URL to subscribe to. Will look something like

http://grahams-computer.local/~grahamenglish/NameOfCalendar.ics

Subscribe to this calendar in iCal. Then run this command in terminal to sync the calendars.

remind -s30 -irem2ics=1 ~/.reminders | TZ=US/Eastern rem2ics -do -norecur >/Users/username/Sites/Reminder2iCal.ics

Cheap alternative to Spanning Sync.

Growl notifications of timed events

Install growlnotify from the Growl site. The forum is a good place to search for help. Wasn't too difficult.

Run this command after you boot your computer or set it as a login item. I haven't figured out how to do that successfully yet.

nohup remind -z -k'/usr/local/bin/growlnotify -n remind -a iCal -t Reminder -s -m %s &' ~/.reminders &
