Hello

anyone knows a good program for university schedule? i'm tired of re-making every week my schedule on OO Calc, so i was looking if there's a soft which i fill Course name, time and place and it generate the time table (GTK, or PHP, don't want any CGI scripts as i hate using CGI :( )

I've been looking at sourceforge and i've found ScheduleViz (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=79166) Which is more dedicated for University Management as well as fed


apt-cache show fed


but that's kinda a bit complicated for wat i want....

Thx in advance

Im am looking aswell and will post anythinig I find, I tried to use evolution which works somewhat, but it can be difficult to set the frequency of the events, PLus the finished result doenst lok that great.

You may have better luck with it though

While we're talking schedules any ideas on what app I can use for my wife's work schedules? She basically wants a calendar that she can just type names and times into then print.

What about calendar apps like Mozilla's Sunbird ?
You can set repeating events etc. and edit them for things like midterms / vacations.

Worth a look.

The second link is for the standalone Sunbird Calendar program (linux version is listed).
They are working on the calendar extension for firefox 1.5/linux but it isn't available yet.

Edit: 20060111 This morning I looked at my Gnome screen and noticed in the upper right hand corner the date & time. Clicking on it brought up a small calendar, double clicking on the date brought up evolution - calendars.
The app was sitting right in front of me all the time. You could try it for your needs, It allows setting recurring appointments ( every 2 days, 3 days, until _date )
So if you have Gnome as your DE you probably have Evolution installed already.

Digging up a old thread here, but its that time of year again.

I have found tablix, looks promising but I am struggling to get it working how I want it.

Anyone else ever use it?
