sync to iCal as events for due dates? Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
I'll try to make it back around to this script and make these modifications when I get a chance. In case someone gets ambitious and wants to take a stab at it before that happens...

It looks like iCal just defaults to 15-minute events when presented with one that has a start date or an end date but not both. The workaround would be to do some math in the script to manufacture whichever value is missing, then set both start and end date values according to whatever duration was wanted.

As for the links, it looks like the iCal export code is doing some extra work behind the scenes to get those links to work. The script would need to duplicate that work. Currently it does a good job of making links that look like the ones that OF makes during the export, but they aren't actually the same thing.

To get this fixed, I would need to get one of the developers to explain how this code works and then hack something together that does the same thing in Applescript. (This change is somewhat less likely to happen, in other words.)
