* Malakal

Malakal is a day planner application. I crafted it because I was not able to find a comfortable calendar application for Linux.

I consider it in a mostly usable state - I myself have been using it on a daily basis for around a year now. Bug reports, feature requests, and contributions are warmly welcomed.

* Features

Core features:

- quickly add/modify/relocate/clone/delete events

- notify on event starts

- stored as standard ical files

- post-update command (for running e.g. vdirsyncher)

UI/UX features:

- click to edit event title

- snapping mode (hold down shift to precision mode)

- ctrl-z to undo modifications

- drag on blank to create events

- drag on an event to change its begin/end time or move the event

- ctrl-drag on an event to clone it

- right-click on an event to open menu (for event detail & deletion)

- right-click on blank area to open calendar view

- quickly jumping to dates in calendar view

- current date/time indicator

- full keyboard support for navigation/event manipulation

Typical calendar features that are not supported by malakal:

- synchronization/webdav: for now, you can use vdirsync for synchronization

- command line query: malakal happily shares local ical files with [[https://github.com/pimutils/khal][khal]]

- recurrent events: it may add a lot of complexity so it's not currently planned

* Keyboard shortcuts

|-----------------+------------------------------------|

| Tab/Shift-Tab   | Focus previous/next event     |

| Arrow keys      | Focus event on the given direction |

| Ctrl+Arrow keys | Move focused event                 |
