Has anyone successfully parsed a iCal.app .ics file using Net::ICal?
(Date::Ical does not address the entire file format, Net::ICal does)
This script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::ICal;
$icalStr = `cat /Users/alex/Library/Calendars/ARCtime.ics`;

Another naive question, but questioning minds must ask.
It took a few days and the PHP community is already out with a very
decent iCal parser. Reads ics files and makes calendars.
Perhaps the Net::ICal and related modules set out to do too much, and
never got beyond the third alpha release.

as much as I hate doing it, I concede another small victory to PHP.
Thanks, but I guess I am taken aback by such a rational answer ;-).

yeah, while iCalendar has been around for a while, the PHP parser I

I would ask, why did you try to upgrade? Was there a particular feature
you needed that was present in a newer version of Perl, that 5.6.0 lacks?

OK I see. But what they're talking about here is the OLD Mac OS.. the
one without a command line. This should be updated to reflect the fact
that Mac's can run variants of UNIX (Yellow Dog, OS X).
I concede the point but complain bitterly and in a completely
unsportsmanlike way :)

And to clarify this point just a tiny bit more:
Mac OS/X is 'a' UNIX. It is an implementation of the FreeBSD UNIX
variant.
Furthermore, it is - in fact - the most widely used UNIX 'flavor' in the
world today.
It is however, still considered 'new' therefore many have been slow to
adapt to
Yeah, I've done a little debugging myself with the Net::ICal and
Date::ICal code. I did a similar fix for add(), though I just pass the
arguments to SUPER::add() as they are (so add(hours = 2) should work).
I fixed the regular expression in new() to parse dates better, and a
few other

Good Folks,
After upgrading to Jaguar, I installed Perl 5.8.0 from Aaron Faby's binaries
(www.serverlogistics.com). Things look OK except the new Perl complains
about Locale:
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale setings:
LC_ALL =
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale setings:
LC_ALL = (unset),
LANG = en_US
are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back on the standard local (C).
Take a look here:
As long as you only need US English access, you will be fine, since that's
the default for the C setting.
If for some reason you need non-english (especially a non-European Character
set), you will need to read up on locale. This is not perl-specfic. Most
unix text processing programs take
