etm is an acronym for Event and Task Manager. It provides a format for using simple text files to store event and task information, a command line interface for viewing tasks and events in a variety of convenient ways and a curses-based GUI for creating and modifying events and tasks as well as viewing them. Alarms are supported for events and repetition for both events and tasks in a powerful and flexible manner. Compared to the combination of wxRemind and yeaGTD, etm provides the following advantages: * an agenda view that shows events and tasks together for the next few days rather than one day at a time in separate task and event windows. * a quick and simple way to enter events and tasks on a single line. * support for remind but also an independent way of entering events with contexts, notes and optional alarms. * an interactive GUI that uses curses and thus requires nothing more than a terminal window.
