Re: [orca-list] GPodder and looking for an accessible calendar.

Hi,

If you are looking for a really simple calendar program, there is a calendar 
utility that comes with most versions of Linux. In Ubuntu, it is 
/usr/bin/calendar. I've been using it for many years, and it suits my 
needs--I don't need reminders fifteen minutes before an event.  I have a 
cron job run calendar every morning at 4:00 and I receive an email of my 
events for the day and the following day.  For more information, man 
calendar.

Hope this helps,

dave
