Hello,
I m using FET first time. I just generared a time table from examples: India > Chhenai > anna-university > timetable_July_Nov_09_9.fet.
I got  logs and Timetable in home/fet-results. I need .csv file of generate timetable. How can I get it?

After you generate, go to File->Export and export CSV. This will export the data, but also the timetable.

Thanks ...I got it  :)
I need to impot the same time table generated by FET to google calender.
Do I need to edit the scv file of timetable manually?
Google Calender needs CSV file with the headers as in

You can't import that file in google calendar, because there is a lot of information missing (in that file and also in FET. For example dates, times, ...).

But you can use TiTiTo to do that.
Just import your generated FET file from the fet-result directory.
Enter the missing data (dates, times, ...)
and export the iCal files.
You can import the iCal files into google calendar.

You can get and test TiTiTo here:

If rather then using TiTiTo, and exporting in ical format, I enter its missing data in csv format. Google Calender can import csv format.
Which way is good?

Sorry, i don't understand your last request.

Do you know what "csv" is? csv is not a calendar format, it is only a way how to write (all kind of information). (So "csv" to "ical" is like "latin characters" to "english phrases".)

Fell free and use csv file if you want. Please check google documentation if you want to know which columns google needs, because "csv" is not a defined "How to save a calendar"-rule. There are a lot of undefined different csv-calendar file formats.

But "ical" is a "How to save a calendar"-rule. It is well documented and there is a written official definition which support much more features then every csv calendar format.
That is why all (good) calendar software support ical and that is also why i coded an ical and not an csv export.

Is TiTiTo  for Windows only?
I find only .exe of TiTiTo.
I am Linux User.

It is working well with wine under Linux.
Please test it with wine under Linux.
I will try to do an native Linux version next week.
