Stephen Grove asks "how to install the pcal from /etc/fixes" ...

Rather than try to develop the procedure from scratch, I did a "grep" and
found this posting from about a year ago.  All the steps are sound and if
you follow them you'll soon have a "Personal Calendar" running on your UNIXPC!

The annoying thing, however, is that when AT&T didn't send us our due, we
didn't get ALL the instructions regarding the Calendar; I still cannot figure
out the "key" icon in the daily (or weekly?) window display.

In any event, enjoy!

Gee, works for me! I pulled my calendar out of "/etc/fixes", too. This was
discussed on the net some time ago, so here is what I recall I did:

1.	move "pcal" to /usr/bin, and "pcal.hlp" to /usr/lib/ua

2.	add this to /usr/lib/ua/Office:

	Name=Calendar
	Default = Open
	Open = EXEC -d /usr/bin/pcal -c
	Help = EXEC -d /usr/bin/uahelp -h /usr/lib/ua/pcal.hlp -t "Calendar"

(now this is it:)
3.	add this to /usr/lib/ua/Preferences:

	Name=Calendar
	Default = Open
	Open = EXEC -d /usr/bin/pcal -p
	Help = EXEC -d /usr/bin/uahelp -h /usr/lib/ua/pcal.hlp -t "Calendar Preferences"

                  ...., ALL (myself included) have returned their warranty

So did I, and never heard from AT&T. I didn't even bother to call.
