<h1>iCal2Memo</h1>

<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>iCal2Memo is a Perl script that grabs all .ics files in a directory, parses the calendar information, finds the new and recurring entries, and saves them in the Rockbox Calendar format.</p>

<p>The data is placed in a text file, which can then be copied to your .memo file.</p>

<p>Since it's a Perl script, it should be cross-platform, however Windows users will need to download and install "ActivePerl"</p>

<h2>How to Use</h2>
<p>Download this text file, and save it with the extension .pl. Set execute permissions (chmod 0755) and the call it from the command prompt.</p>

(the file has a .txt extension on the wiki due to security limitations on the server)

<h2>Known Issues</h2>
<p>It is not working perfectly at the time of this writing-- recurring weekly appointments appear on the wrong day. I would appreciate hearing from someone who is more familiar with the format of .memo files.</p>
