Description: three-months-calendar with calendar week calculation, localized names for months and weekdays, week start with whatever weekday, highlighted sunday column and current day, month-wise forward and backward lookupLast changelog:
V1.3.1: minor changes because of changed API function getTextColor. Attention! Luxi font is needed for correct placement of names and numbers.
V1.3: skz Package
V1.2: Highlighted today's date also if centered month is next or previous month
V1.1: Thanks to Santiago Bruno some flexibility has been implemented to cover regional preferences - added abbreviated weekday names in current (centered) month - week can start with whatever weekday. It is stepped trough by (double-)clicking on the rightmost weekday name. - calendar week is calculated on the weekday displayed in the middle of a week. If week doesn't start on monday this doesn't fully match the ISO standard.
Great job
you could even integrate an analog clock in the theme of the calendar?
So something like this
http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/KClock?content=66205
könnte man noch eine Analoge Uhr in das Theme über den Kalender integrieren?
So etwas wie das hier

Hello!
Lately I switched my system to UTF8 and now this theme doesn't show "Umlaute" any more. Is there any way to chance this without switching back the LOCALES?
Locale support comes from within python. In the source itself there are no hard coded month or day names and no "Umlaut"-characters (ä,ö,ü,ß ...) at all.
I have also switched to UTF-8 and month names (e.g. März) are displayed correctly. My installed program versions are:
KDE 4.3.4
Python 2.6.4
Hello!
Very good theme! I really was looking for such a thing. Thank you!
On my screen the red background for Sundays and the current day looks as it is needs to be shifted a few pixels to the right. The days' numbers are not centered within the red square.
Also I'd like to ask if you could make the theme a clickable area with a customizable command to be run when clicked. Would this be possible?
For correct alignment of background objects (red rectangles) and numbers the "Luxi" font is needed (but can be changed in theme file). Probably your described misalignment of humbers and rectangles is caused by the lack of this font.
On my printed wall calendar week 1/2008 starts on december 31 2007. This is exactly the same as on the caramba widget. If the week doesn't start on monday this may vary eventually.
In version 1.3.2 there is a bugfix that eventually matches this problem description. The bugfix solves that current day in january might be displayed one week in future.
I like this calendar. It's the only one I've found that shows the month before and after (which I have need to lookup often).
Is there any way to change the color of the scroll controls on the right? (Perhaps a configuration option?)
The color of the navigation controls comes from 3 small icons. If you change the colors in pics/rueckwaerts.png, pics/vorwaerts.png and pics/jetzt.png to whatever you want this will solve your problem. You can do this very easy with gimp by "select by color" and replace this selection by the color you want.
It would be nice to have an option to choose if the week starts on Monday or Sunday, and also to display the first letter of each day on the top row of each month.
Good work.

Currently there are no plans to integrate an additional clock function. For this purpose there are excellent other widgets that can be used.

The calendar starting being a week fast with the new year. Is there something about 2008 it doesn't like?

Ok. Realized in version 1.1 (thanks to your participation ;-) ).
