Calendar Colors
- Use
gog calendar colors to see all available event colors (IDs 1-11)
- Add colors to events with
--event-color <id> flag
Email Formatting
- Prefer plain text. Use
--body-file for multi-paragraph messages (or --body-file - for stdin).
- Same
--body-file pattern works for drafts and replies.
--body does not unescape \n. If you need inline newlines, use a heredoc or $'Line 1\n\nLine 2'.
- Use
--body-html only when you need rich formatting.
Notes
- Set
GOG_ACCOUNT=you@gmail.com to avoid repeating --account.
- For scripting, prefer
--json plus --no-input.
