Command.  Line.  Interface.

Seriously.  I realize that a GUI is how most would interact with it, but
writing a PIM with both GUI and CLI interfaces would truly rock.  Or
just leave out the GUI.  ;-)

All the other stuff like ical support, etc., is fairly obvious.  I don't
want to fire up Evolution to add an appointment.  I'd rather open a
term.
