NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

tdd runs in the background and periodically, according to scheduling directives in the configuration file (see td(5)), synchronizes local TDcal calendars with their remote CalDAV servers or fetches updates from iCalendar calendar sources.

tdd also provides alert notification messages to remind the user of forthcoming events. Notification messages are displayed on a terminal as a text message with a beep, or on an X.org graphical display as a pop-up notification using either gxmessage(1) or xmessage(1). Notifications are displayed according to the user's own alert schedule preferences configured in the configuration file and not according to an event's iCalendar VALARM information which is ignored. Alerts are configured using the ‘alerts’ and ‘adealerts’ directives (see td(5)), which can be configured both globally and on a per-calendar basis.

tdd supports the following command-line options:

-v

Verbose mode. Displays a trace of what is going on, intended for debugging.

-x

Displays a short explanation of command-line options.

ENVIRONMENT

LC_MESSAGES

NLS language support in pop-up alerts.
