Bug 133131

Version:           3.5 (using KDE 3.5.2, Gentoo)
Compiler:          Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.16-gentoo-r12

konsolekalendar is good enough for getting you out of trouble when KDE/X decides to screw you over the day before our exams, but not very nice for scripting with, especially when you have remote resources like google calendars. I would guess that more people know hot to use dcop than know about the existence of konsolekalendar.

The following functions would be *very* useful for viewing events in scripts (take a glance around in kdcop as inspiration. Kopete has some good ideas for addressing large numbers of contacts/metacontacts.):

QStringList resources() // returns unique identifiers

Qstring title(QString resource)
KURL locate(QString resource)
bool enabled(QString resource)
QStringList todaysEvents(QString resource) // unique identifiers

QString Summary(QString event)
ulong startTime(QString event) 
ulong endTime(QString event) // or any return type that pydcop or command line dcop can output for later casting
QStringList categories(QString event)

Obviously, dcop should be implemented with the least possible effort on your part, as simple wrappers around your existing highest level functions. 

At present, I don't have any experience using konsolekalendar to edit calendars, so I can't say anything about which dcop hooks would be worth having.

As I say: these things would make it *much* easier to deal with remote resources. They would probably be easier to implement than making konsolekalendar tie in with the enabled/disabled remote/local resources, especially if it's meant to work even when everything else kills itself.
