iCal lets the user create multiple separate calendars and display them in a single unified window, using color keys to distinguish them. It also lets the user publish calendars on the Internet and subscribe to public calendars. iCal uses the standard iCalendar (.ics) file format, which developers can use in their own applications to share, maintain, and publish iCal files and data.
