Galendae

A basic popup calendar that can be styled to match workspace themes.

Galendae was designed to be a stylish popup calendar that can match the styling of Desktop Environments or Window Managers.

Whats in a name

Galendae is derived from the Roman word Kalendae, meaning the first day of the month. I thought Kalendae sounded like a KDE application and since I was using GTK+, Galendae was born.

Dependency

GTK+ 3.x

Building from source

$ git clone https://github.com/chris-marsh/galendae.git
$ make release

Configuration

galendae will look for a configuration file called galendae.conf. It will search in the following order;

./galendae.conf
~/.config/galendae/galendae.conf

You can specify alternatives configuration files with the '-c' option. You can specify a full path or just a filename. If you only give a filename, the same directories as above will be tried.

Running

$ galendae
$ galendae -c config/blue.conf

Useage

galendae [OPTION ...]
