We discussed this on the nmh mailing list a while back, and the suggestion
was to try out calcurse: http://www.calcurse.org.  Although when I looked
at it _really_ what I want is something that can take a text/calendar
object and format the response, and calcurse doesn't quite do that from
my looking at it.

I've replied to calendar requests by formatting a response by hand and
sending a text/calendar message in reply; my brief tests with the help
of a local Windows guy showed that it was successful, but I don't want
to go into the details of that.  Reading the text/calendar RFC was enough
to figure out what you needed ... all of that logic could be placed
in a perl script or equivalent.
