Rainy - (Freeware)
Since it is essential to be well organized, Rainlendar is a great option, offering a detailed schedule of tasks so that important events and other appointments not to be missed are not forgotten.
Rainlendar is a calendar that appears more on the Windows desktop where user can record all the tasks to be performed such day, as time and events and important appointments.
It appears to be below all windows, such as glued on the bottom of the screen or transparent in the foreground, in front of any windows. A number of skins are available including a reflecting display.
Rainlendar can read appointments from Outlook and colors the days that contain schedule. By just placing the mouse over one of them user can see the list of appointments for the day.
Rainlendar also offers the possibility to launch an alert when an event occurs. The user only has to set the date and time and the software takes care of the alert at that time.
Rainlendar is able to synchronize with a server (which runs both Windows and Linux). It then becomes possible to have appointments updated both at home and at the office.
This small application has the advantage of being customized according to user preferences. Indeed, the export or import iCal (iCalendar) is possible thanks to the integrated skins.
- Some of the scripts got broken by the Lua 5.2 update.
- The relative snooze to the target time wasn't updated correctly to the alarm window.
- Added Rainlendar_Backup and Rainlendar_Restore to the Lua API. Backup can be done with a hotkey too.
- Rainlendar_DeleteComponent() deletes also the subtasks automatically. Same also happens if the task is deleted from the manager.
- The start and end times are updated in the event/task editor now also if the time is entered manually.
- If downloading the Google calendar fails because the authentication was expired Rainlendar will reauthenticate automatically.
- Improved the error handling when importing events fails.
- Yearly recurring events were not always shown on leap years.
- Dragging a task in the schedule views did not work correctly.
