You can grab it from: ftp.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/plan-1.5-static.tgz Just use pkg_add on it, and it'll install everything under /usr/local/plan with the man files in /usr/local/man/... The port and my porting notes are in: ftp.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/plan-1.5-port.tar.gz I didn't know where everything should be installed; the defaults didn't seem to conform to FreeBSD installations. There were some example holiday files, documents, scripts, and more than one executable. So I put them in /usr/local/plan/(bin,lib,docs,misc,examples). I need a little port guidance here... Dan Eischen deischen@iworks.InterWorks.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- What is plan? ------------- Plan is a schedule planner based on X/Motif. It displays a month calendar similar to xcal, but every day box is large enough to show appointments in small print. By pressing on a day box, the appointments for that day can be listed and edited. Appointments are entered with the following information (everything except the time is optional): - the date, time, and length of the appointment - an optional text message to be printed, - an optional script to be executed, - early-warn and late-warn triggers that precede the alarm time - repetitions: [n-th] weekdays, days-of-the-month, every n days, yearly - optional fast command-line appointment entry - flexible ways to specify holidays and vacations - extensive context help - multiuser capability using an IP server program The action being taken when a warn or alarm time is reached is programmable; by default a window pops up. In addition, a program can be executed, or mail can be sent. Other methods of listing appointments (today, this week, next week, or a keyword search for regular expressions) are also available. Plan can be configured to display times in 12-hour or 24-hour formats, mmddyy and ddmmyy date formats, and can show either Monday or Sunday in the leftmost column. Three view modes are supported: one month, one year, one week, and a 365-day vacation planner. The week and vacation view plots appointments as colored and labelled bars in, and allows other users' appointments to be included. [...] --------- plan is Copyrighted by Thomas Driemeyer, 1993-1996.

If these conditions are met, you can do whatever you like. The idea is that I would be pissed if someone else claimed he wrote the thing, and I don't want bugs introduced by others attributed to me. Make as much money with it as you can. Drop me a line, I am curious. There are no implied or expressed warranties for plan. I do not claim it is good for anything whatsoever, and if you lose your precious data or your dog dies this is entirely your problem.
