#' MOVED Write ical object
#' 
#' This function creates an ical file based on a data frame with mixed events. 
#' Export as .ics file using `calendar::ic_write()`.
#' 
#' @param df A data frame with the calendar data
#' @param date The name of the event date column in the data frame
#' @param date.end The name of the end date column in the data frame
#' @param title The name of the title column in the data frame
#' @param time.start The name of the start time column in the data frame
#' @param time.end The name of the end time column in the data frame
#' @param place The name of the place column in the data frame
#' @param place.def Default location to use when place is NA
#' @param time.def Default start time to use when time.start is NA
#' @param time.dur Default duration of the event in minutes, if time.end is NA
#' @param descr Name of description/notes column if any.
#' @param link Name of link column, if any.
#' @param t.zone A character string of time zone for events. The string must be 
#' a time zone that is recognized by the user's OS.
