!Calendars/!Help

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Calendars
By Tony Shew

Calendars is a program to produce a calendar in text file format. It
has a save box with an icon which can be dragged to Edit or into your
favourite WP/DTP application for touching up before printing. The icon
can also be dragged directly to your printer driver. A calendar can be
produced for any month or year from January 1801 onwards.

Start the application in the usual way by double-clicking on the
Calendars icon in the directory viewer window. This will load the
application and put its icon onto the iconbar.

Click with Select over the icon to open the Calendars window. Select
whether the calendar is for 1 year, 3 months, or one month. Enter the
year and start month required into the writable fields and click on
the large OK button or press the F1 function key. This will create the
calendar and open the save window. Drag the icon from the save window
to an application or directory viewer in the usual way. If the
calendars window is partially hidden beneath other windows a click on
any part of the window (except the icons), or a click on the iconbar,
will bring the window to the front.

The calendars produced are in the following format. Each calendar is
for either a full year, three months, or one month. The full year will
have the months laid out 3 across the page and 4 down and will always
start with January. The three months option is laid out 3 across the
page and can start at any month. The dates for each month are
displayed on 6 lines with a blank 6th line if necessary. There is a
margin called the top margin at the top of the page before the heading
and this is 0 to 9 blank lines. The heading consists just of the year
of the calendar. The space between the heading and the first row of
months and the space between subsequent rows of months is called the
horizontal gap and this is 1 to 9 blank lines. A left margin of 0 to 9
blank spaces is inserted at the start of each line. The gap between
months on a row is the vertical gap and this is 1 to 9 blank spaces.

Clicking on the window's toggle size icon will open the window out
allowing you to change the format of the calendar. On the right the
layout of the calendar can be altered and in the bottom half of the
window the names of the days of the week and months can be amended.
You may wish to change the names of the months to a shortened 3
character format or even change them to foreign language names.

The names of the days of the week must be 1 or 2 letter abbreviations
and the calendars always start with Sunday.

Clicking on the save data icon will save the current setup to disc to
use as the default settings when the application is next started.
Clicking on the load icon will load up the last saved defaults. The
year and start month are not saved and Calendars always starts with
the current year and month.

Pressing the function keys has the same effect as clicking on the
icons as follows:
   F1 = OK
   F2 = This Year
   F3 = This Month
   F4 = Save Data
   F5 = Load Data
   F6 = Year down arrow
   F7 = Year up arrow
   F8 = Month down arrow
   F9 = Month up arrow

Tips
====

A vertical gap of less than 3 spaces will looked cramped. Use a
monospaced font such as Courier/Corpus otherwise the columns will not
match up with each other correctly. Customise your calendars by
including a border and graphics before printing.


Using calendars with Draw
=========================

Draw can be used to produce calendars with borders and/or graphics
with the output from Calendars in a text area. Text areas in Draw need
a header and this will be produced if the Draw format icon is on. This
will produce a calendar in text format set up for Draw, not a Draw
file. The header will choose the Corpus.Medium font, which is provided
as standard with Risc OS 2 and 3. If you wish to change the font used,
save the file into Edit first and amend the font names at the top to
another monospaced font.

Initially set up the margins in Calendars as:
   top margin     0
   left margin    0
   horizontal gap 1
   vertical gap   3

Click on OK and drag the save icon from Calendars to Draw; these
settings can be changed by trial and error to suit.

Select the text area, position it near the top left hand corner, and
open it out to the size required. Keep the width to the absolute
minimum in order that the title is centred correctly. The parameters
used above are suitable for a 1 year calendar on A4 portrait paper
with some space left for a border. If you are using different paper
size/orientation or wish to change the Draw text area options drag the
save icon from Calendars into Edit first. For more information on text
areas in Draw see your User Guide.
