<code>./aes.rb --calendar [off|internal|ical|debug]</code><br>
<code>./aes.rb --calendar</code> shows the current setting.
<code>./aes.rb --calendar off</code> turns the calendar off, <code>./aes.rb --calendar calendar</code> makes aes use its internal calendar function and <code>./aes.rb --calendar ical</code> activates the Amahi calendar integration. To show diag information use <code>./aes.rb --calendar debug</code>
<code>./aes.rb --showcalendar</code><br>
Lists the current calendar entriesof the internal. Calendar entries define times when the server does not suspend. Also, the server will be woken up at the beginning of a calendar entry.
