[Remind-Fans] remind2iCalendar

[Anthony Chivetta]

My mother uses iCal on her mac and I wanted some way to have her subscribe to my
calendar in Remind, so I wrote a simple awk script to convert the output from
`remind -s` to the iCalendar format.  It works for me, but your mileage may
vary.  I know nothing about awk (this was my first attempt to write an awk
program), so I don't know how helpful I can be if anyone has problems using it,
but I can try.  I have attached the script.
