I was taken to a screen that asked me if I wanted to import the events. So I sent myself an email with the ICS file attached, opened the email on the phone, and clicked on the attachment. Where I really wanted the new events was in my iPhone’s calendar. My calendar is in two places: my iMac at work and my iPhone, which sync when I connect them. So I made the ICS, but I didn’t import it into iCal because I’m at home on my MacBook Air, and I don’t keep my calendar on that computer (it’s long story, and even longer when I tell it 1). Once you have all the events entered, there’s a command, Make ICS, that generates (you guessed it) an ICS file that can be imported into iCal. For the soccer schedule, all I had to change was the date and time and sometimes the jersey color. More important, when you have a bunch of events that are mostly the same-like the eight-game soccer schedule I just entered-you can create the first one from the snippet, copy and paste all the others, and then edit the differences. There’s a snippet, bound to the “ev” tab trigger that makes entering an event easy. Tonight I used it in a new way.īriefly, the bundle lets you write out events, one per line, in a format like this, with the fields separated by pipe characters: Soccer|04/16/11 12:30 pm|1.00|Watson Park|navy jersey Its purpose is to allow users to create several events for their calendars in a very short time, avoiding the plodding nature of adding events to iCal. I’ve written a couple of posts about my calendar events bundle for TextMate. Next post Previous post Calendars, TextMate, and the iPhone
