Calcurse, alternative Linux à Calendar

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

Calcurse is a functional but starkly different replacement for GNOME Calendar. It handles the core scheduling tasks: viewing events in month, week, and day views, and managing appointments. However, it is a terminal-based application, so it lacks the graphical polish and system-wide notification integration that desktop users expect. It is best suited for power users, developers, or anyone comfortable with keyboard-driven workflows who prioritizes speed and low resource usage over visual convenience. If you rely heavily on graphical drag-and-drop or system pop-ups, you will find the transition difficult.

Ce qui change

  • Terminal-based interface instead of a graphical desktop app

  • Does not natively subscribe to external iCal feeds; requires manual import or external scripts
  • No graphical drag-and-drop for rescheduling events

Ouvrir vos fichiers Calendar

GNOME Calendar typically stores data in local SQLite databases or syncs via Evolution Data Server. Calcurse uses simple, human-readable text files. There is no direct import button. You would need to export your events from GNOME Calendar to an .ics file and then use a script or manual conversion to map that data into Calcurse's specific text format, which is not a seamless process.

Passer de Calendar à Calcurse, étape par étape

  1. Export your events from GNOME Calendar to an .ics file.
  2. Install Calcurse via your package manager (e.g., apt, pacman, dnf).
  3. Run Calcurse once to generate the default configuration and data directory.
  4. Use a conversion script or manually parse the .ics file to create entries in Calcurse's text data files.
  5. Configure Calcurse to display multiple calendars with distinct colors if desired.

Questions fréquentes

Will I get pop-up notifications when an event starts?

Not natively. Calcurse runs in the terminal. You can configure it to print a message to the terminal, but it does not hook into the desktop notification system like GNOME Calendar does.

Can I sync with Google Calendar?

Not directly. Calcurse does not have built-in iCal subscription or sync capabilities. You would need to use a third-party script or tool to sync an iCal feed into Calcurse's local text files.

Is it suitable for a complete beginner?

Probably not. If you are new to Linux and prefer mouse-driven interfaces, Calcurse's text-based layout and keyboard-centric navigation may feel intimidating compared to the graphical simplicity of GNOME Calendar.
