10.4 iCalendar export

Some people like to use Org-mode for keeping track of projects, but still prefer a standard calendar application for anniversaries and appointments. In this case it can be useful to have deadlines and other time-stamped items in Org-mode files show up in the calendar application. Org-mode can export calendar information in the standard iCalendar format. If you also want to have TODO entries included in the export, configure the variable org-icalendar-include-todo.

C-c C-e i

Create iCalendar entries for the current file and store them in the same directory, using a file extension .ics.

C-c C-e I

Like C-c C-e i, but do this for all files in org-agenda-files. For each of these files, a separate iCalendar file will be written.

C-c C-e c

Create a single large iCalendar file from all files in org-agenda-files and write it to the file given by org-combined-agenda-icalendar-file.

How this calendar is best read and updated, depends on the application you are using. The FAQ covers this issue.
