Dateline Style Calendar

Posted in System by rjorgenson 106 days ago
My attempt to emulate a Dateline style calendar output in shell using my crappy ruby skills =] The script is in the geeklet but it is also at http://gist.github.com/410932 if you want to see it first/change stuff/whatever. This was mainly a proof of concept script that I could produce something mildly visually attractive and I will now be rolling this into my geeklets script with some customization options hopefully =]

the script requires no options but does color the current day's separator green(see screenshot). You can change that in the script or remove it all together if you wish. You can also change the separator characters.

Geeklet file(s) to download

long_calendar_v2.glet

Either right-click and choose "Save Linked File As..." or hold the Option key and click to download files.
If using Safari, you may have to rename the files without the extra .txt extension that is added.

Why do people keep down voting this? Does it not work for you? If it's broken let me know ... I'll fix it.

I fixed a bug that caused the days displayed to be off by one. The gist has been updated as well as a new .glet file uploaded with the correct script.

Looks really nice, but the separator is off. Does it maybe require a certain font? Thanks though, great geeklet!

PS: I don't know why people are thumbing this down, I thumbed up!

This is awesome, thank you.

Jschwal19, just use a fixed width font and it will display properly.

Yes, sorry I forgot to mention it looks best with a fixed width font. I am using Anonymous Pro in the screenshot and use it for pretty much all my fixed width font needs.
