I'm looking to use the terminal more and more, and I'd like to find a terminal calendar app that can sync with Google calendar.
I'm running ubuntu 14.04

have you tried [elinks](http://elinks.or.cz/) ? – chicks Aug 28 '15 at 00:15

I have not, but I'm looking for more of an "app" and not a browser replacement. – Jonathon Bly Aug 28 '15 at 05:46

Thanks, this looks like what I want. I'll give it a try when I get home. – Jonathon Bly Aug 28 '15 at 05:45

Emacs has an extension called Org mode (Ubuntu: org-mode) which does, errrm, stuff, including agenda facilities. The Org mode agenda can be synchronized with Google Calendar, though it appears not to be foolproof; see the Org mode Google Calendar Synchronization tutorial, and try org-caldav or org-gcal (both installable with M-x package-install in Emacs).
Emacs opens a GUI window by default; you can force it to open in a terminal by running emacs -nw. You can open GUI windows and terminal windows in the same Emacs instance; run emacsclient -nw from a terminal to open an Emacs window in the terminal, or emacsclient -c to open a GUI window.

This seems like a great solution, however I learned Vim and can't for the life of me get used to using both. – Jonathon Bly Aug 28 '15 at 05:48

@JonathonBly So use [Viper](http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/ViperMode) or [Vimpulse](http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Vimpulse) or [Evil](http://emacswiki.org/emacs/Evil) – Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' Aug 28 '15 at 07:55

I've tried evil, but it felt way to strange for me. I might give your first two options a try, though. Thanks. – Jonathon Bly Sep 07 '15 at 23:08
