The command "gcalcli --calendar "${calendar_name}" add" is used to add an event to a specific Google Calendar using the gcalcli tool.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • "gcalcli" is the name or path of the gcalcli command-line tool. This tool allows you to interact with Google Calendar from the command line.
  • "--calendar" is an option or flag that specifies the calendar to which the event will be added.
  • "${calendar_name}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name of the specific calendar you want to add the event to. For example, if the calendar name is "Work", the command should be updated to "gcalcli --calendar "Work" add".
  • "add" is a subcommand that tells gcalcli to add an event to the specified calendar.

By running this command with the appropriate values, you can add events to your Google Calendar using the gcalcli tool.
