I believe it's an iCal file, actually (i.e. an invitation). If so, its format is defined by RFC 2445 (Apple didn't invent it): http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2445 Here's the Apple document on the subject: http://developer.apple.com/internet/appleapplications/icalendarfiles.html There's a perl module for handling them (Net::ICal), and a couple other useful projects (search Freshmeat.net for "icalendar"). ~Kyle - -- Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth. -- Albert Einstein -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Thank you for using encryption! iD8DBQFGUQ7cBkIOoMqOI14RAoPgAKDG0K7+htCbu0r/r2lBwSQdNuN9kACgyYBK 637kolFidQ62HzMpKPHoqZ4= =ixQK -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
