#4Aw, that's not what I hoped it would be. An actual file-based calendar UI is a neat idea, where you can (for instance) echo into a file to create a calendar event on the command line.

#5> Why Did You Do This?
> I used this project as an opportunity to learn about Rust and FUSE file systems. I also think it's hilarious.
> Visitors interested in the code should note that this is an irredeemably messy codebase—it's full of hacks, unidiomatic code, and wildly poor design decisions.

I absolutely love this sentiment. Why do this? Because it’s fun. And messy. And sometimes, that’s okay. Not everything needs to be a product… sometimes it’s enough to do something because you can… or want to… or because $RANDOM reason. I’m very grateful to the author and whoever decided to submit it today.

Same here. I think that would be a terrific idea.

This would be fantastic and very in line with Unix philosophy.
