Deskpad A desktop calendar program like xcalendar. Version: $Revision: 1.1.1.1 $ A rather lightweight calendar program written in Perl/Tk. In addition to Perl and its standard library modules, you'll need to have the Perl/Tk and Date::Calc modules. You can download the source code at http://www.cpan.org/, and there are binary distributions available for many platforms. Use of the Date::Calc module is specific for more recent versions. (The first weekday of the month method wasn't available when I first wrote deskpad.) If for some reason you prefer to use the older routine to find the first weekday of the month, refer to the comments in the source code. Install by copying the 'deskpad' program into your home directory or any directory that you have write permissions in. Usage is straightforward. The program presents a window with a calendar of the current month. Clicking on a day opens a text editor where you can enter any text you like to be associated with that day. Selecting 'Save' from either the menu or the buttons at the bottom of the editor save the text to the calendar's data file. Refer to the file "deskpad.txt" for further information. Copyright and Licensing This program is free software. Please see the file COPYING for details. Please send all bug reports and comments to the author, rkiesling@mainmatter.com.
