For the record, I DO use gcalcli,
and I did generate an app-specific password.
I don't have a .gcalclirc file,
but have just scripted a number of things I use it for,
such as
#!/bin/bash
# google cal agenda with gcalcli
echo "Enter event (MM/DD HH:MM sometext here) : "
read event
gcalcli --user mygmailusern...@gmail.com --pw APPSPECIFICPASSWORDHERE quick
"$event"
exit
or
#!/bin/bash
# google cal agenda with gcalcli
if [ $1 ]; then
gcalcli --user mygm...@gmail.com --pw APPSPECIFICPW calw 1 $1
else
gcalcli --user mygm...@gmail.com --pw APPSECIFICPW calw
fi
exit
works great.
NOTE: I'm using it on Squeeze, not Wheezy.
