NAME
     dtcm_lookup - look	up appointments	from the  calendar  data-
     base

SYNOPSIS
     dtcm_lookup [-c calendar] [-d date] [-v view]

DESCRIPTION
     The dtcm_lookup utility is	non-GUI	interface to the TED
     calendar and appointment services,	used to	look up	appoint-
     ments from	the calendar database via the RPC daemon
     rpc.cmsd(1).  Each	component of the calendar entry	is speci-
     fied using	one of the command-line	options.  The current
     list of appointments for the specified date (see the -d and
     -v	options) is displayed.

OPTIONS
     The following options are available:

	-c calendar
	      Specify the name of the target calendar.	Calendar
	      names typically take the form user@hostname, where
	      user is a	user's login name and hostname is the
	      host machine name.  An example is	felix@cat.  If no
	      target calendar is specified, the	calendar defaults
	      to the current user at the current host machine.

	-d date
	      Specify the date for the look up query.  The date
	      is specified using the form mm/dd/yy, where mm, dd
	      and yy are the two-digit month, day and year modulo
	      100, respectively.  Certain other	references such
	      as ``today,'' ``Tuesday,'' ``tomorrow,'' etc.  are
	      correctly	calculated.  If	no date	is specified,
	      date defaults to today's date.

	-v view
	      Specify the view span of appointments to display.
	      The view option-argument can be:

		 day	   Display all appointments for	the given
			   date	(see -d	option).

		 week	   Display the full week that contains
			   the given date, starting with Sunday.

		 month	   Display the entire month that contains
			   the given date.

	      If the view option-argument is not specified, the
	      viewing range defaults to	the view range specified
	      by the user's dtcm options sheet.	 If the	user has

	      not specified a range in his or her options sheet,
	      it defaults to the day value.

OPERANDS
     None.

STDIN
     Not used.

INPUT FILES
     None.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     The following environment variables affect	the execution of
     dtcm_lookup:

	LANG	       Provide a default value for the interna-
		       tionalization variables that are	unset or
		       null.  If LANG is unset or null,	the
		       corresponding value from	the
		       implementation-specific default locale
		       will be used.  If any of	the internation-
		       alization variables contains an invalid
		       setting,	the utility behaves as if none of
		       the variables had been defined.

	LC_ALL	       If set to a non-empty string value, over-
		       ride the	values of all the other	interna-
		       tionalization variables.

	LC_MESSAGES    Determine the locale that is used to
		       affect the format and contents of diagnos-
		       tic messages written to standard	error and
		       informative messages written to standard
		       output.

	NLSPATH	       Determine the location of message catalo-
		       gues for	the processing of LC_MESSAGES.

RESOURCES
     None.

ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS
     The dtcm_lookup utility takes the standard	action for all
     signals.

STDOUT
     The standard output contains the list of appointments for
     the specified view	span.

STDERR
     Used only for diagnostic messages.
