NAME

xdkcal - Desktop Calendar for X

SYNOPSIS

xdkcal [options]

DESCRIPTION

X Desktop Calendar (xdkcal) is a Calendar for X Window System. It draws calendar on your desktop. You can customize, fontset, color drawing style. This application is completely internationalized so it reads locale database and draw locale specific strings, such as name of months or weeks.

First time you run it, maybe xdkcal says "can't open file ..." But it's no problem. You'll find file named ".xdkcalrc" in your home directory. Next time you run xdkcal, xdkcal read configuration from "~/.xdkcalrc". Such configurations can be specified from command line arguments or you can edit "~/.xdkcalrc" directly.

This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

BUG

The upstream auhtor doesn't know other country's holidays except Japan. If you have any infomation or implementation about holiday function for your locale, please feedback.

When run xdkcal and calendar is drawn under any Window, the calendar is not drawn correctly. Then You need to send HUP signal to the process. It might not be a problem if you run xdkcal when X starts up ;-).
