Subject: Minor Bug in ical2org awk script
Date: 21 Jul 2010 12:39:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87wrspqft5.fsf@gmx.ch> (raw)
Hi all, hi Eric
Eric Fraga's wonderful awk script to export/convert googlecalendar to
orgmode contains a minor bug in creating active timestamps. A date like
21.7.2010, 14-15 will be converted to
<2010-07-21 14:00-15:00>
What is missing here is the day of the week. It should be (in German):
<2010-07-21 Mi 14:00-15:00>
That is not a problem for Orgmode which doesn't need the day of the week
to display the entry correctly. But it's a problem for iCal-export. If
you import this date into googlecalendar without manually fixing the
weekday information, GoogleCalendar doesn't display the date correctly
but handles it as a "whole-day"-entry (i.e. without the time
information). I know the shortcoming is actually an iCal.el matter, but
it could be fixed on the awk script level, I think.
Greetings,
Sven
