Calendar Desklet

A simple local calendar desklet that can display the number of today's appointments from an ical/ics file.

Usage With Thunderbird

You can e.g. configure the Thunderbird calendar to save your appointments in an ics file.

1. Create an empty file on your computer, e.g. /home/<username>/calendar.ics.
2. Create a new calendar in Thunderbird using this file.
   • In the "New Calendar" dialog, choose "Network".
   • As address, enter the URL path to the file on your computer, e.g. file:///home/<username>/calendar.ics.
3. Choose the file in the desklet settings. The desklet will now display the number of today's appointments in the ics file.
