I think you would be able to, since TextMate bundles could be written in Ruby, PHP, or PERL, and the iCal format is very well documented format.

There are some examples of parsing the icals in the apple developer docs: http://developer.apple.com/internet/appleapplications/icalendarfiles.html

You can find the ical files location here, to parse them: http://www.icalworld.com/faq.html

I hope that helps.

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to piece something together and I figured I'd ask if it was possible before I put all of the mental effort into it.

I use the "find email address in address book" bundle almost daily. I was wondering if it is possible to configure similar functionality for the calendar? I want type in a word from an event's name and the command would pull the full name, location, start and end date from iCal. Is this possible?

I'm not a programmer but I was hoping to modify the existing bundle. I *think* the CalCalendarItem and CalEvent frameworks provide the necessary information to pull this off but I wanted to make sure that it was feasable before I attempted something so far above my pay grade.
