[Calcurse](https://calcurse.org/files/manual.html) is a text-based calendar and scheduling application that is simple, light-weight, and highly effective. After a quick set up, I added my schedule (lectures and meetings) for a month (appointments, to-do, and notes) and wanted to create a bash-script that can read out the notes associated with each appointment (basically, the details of each lecture and some reference links) where a note file is a SHA1 hash of the note itself. I went through the documentation available [here](https://calcurse.org/files/manual.html) and tried the following on the shell :
calcurse -a
gave me all the appointments for the day
calcurse -t
gave me all the to-dos
calcurse -at
gave me all the appointments and todos for the day.
However, as mentioned in the documentation the -N
option should
> print note content if one is associated with the displayed item
When I run calcurse -aN
, I do not get any output. I also tried the [Format-string](https://calcurse.org/files/manual.html#basics_format_strings) section but it *does not give me my notes associated with any appoinment*.
Please let me know if I should provide additional details. Thank you in advance !
