Previously, with only one day visible at a time, the appointments panel
displayed the details of the day selected in the calendar (slctd_day);
information required for operations on items (day_items) can often be
derived from the selected day. The items available are derived from the
selected day. In particular, the selected item is derived from the
selected day.
With multiple days in the APP panel, the relation between selected day
(in the calendar) and the selected item (in the APP panel) has, in a
way, been turned around. The selected item may now be moved between days
without explicitly changing the selected day. Implicitly it is changed
when the target day of a move is unavailable.
This commit draws the full consequence: the selected day in the calendar
is always (set to) the day of the selected item in the APP panel.
The static variable 'struct date slctd_day' lives in ui_calendar.c and
is accessible through various public functions. To these are added
ui_calendar_set_slctd_day() which sets slctd_day directly.
The selected day retains its significance for load of the day vector (in
day_store_items()): the range of loaded days begins with the selected
day. Movements (up/down) in the APP panel will change the selected day
as the selected item moves among the already loaded days. Only when the
target of a movement is unreachable, will further days be loaded. On the
other hand, if the same range of days must be reloaded because of a
changed item, the selected item - and with it the selected day - must be
reset to the first day item (see do_storage()).
Movements in the calendar (generic-next-day, etc.) are not affected and
behave as previously, i.e. they will cause a range of days to be loaded
with the selected day as the first and the selected item as the first of
the selected day.

The number of days displayed in the APP panel has been made
configurable, maximum 21 days, default seven days.
With several days in the APP panel, it may be desirable to "squeeze" the
entries by leaving out the final empty line of each appointment and
lower the number of lines between consecutive days (0, 1, or 2). Both
are made general configuration options. To make a uniform display, an
empty line is added to a day without appointments, if appointments have
an empty line.

With multiple days in the APP panel, up/down movements should change
behaviour at the top and bottom of the list displayed, and load the
previous/next lot of days.
This requires that the move function returns the result of the
operation. Furthermore, the ability to move the selection to the
beginning of a day is needed when moving down (in order to move from the
first day to the last day). For this reason a DAY_SEPARATOR has been
inserted also after the last day of a lot.
Appointments have a listbox height of three to separate them clearly
when there is more than one in a day. This leaves a spurious empty line
at the end of a day with appointments. The DAY_SEPARATOR height is
reduced from two to one, and a new EMPTY_SEPARATOR of height one is
inserted in any day with only events.
When scrolling up the DAY_HEADING becomes visible when the selection
reaches the first item of the day.
The length of the separator (between events and appointments) is
adjusted to leave a space to the window border at both ends, thereby
making it a part of the day, not a separation between days.
The dummy event must also be recognisable when not the selected item and
is only inserted in interactive mode.
The test for a saved selection must also recognise caption items which
have item pointer NULL.
The function day_get_nb() has been renamed day_get_days().

The day vector, day_items, is displayed in the appointments panel; the
selected day_item object is highlighted (when the panel has the focus).
When items are inserted, edited, moved etc., and when the day is
changed, the day vector is rebuilt and displayed anew.
Problem: How shall the selection be set automatically in the context of
the new day vector?
In previous versions all of the above is mostly handled by the function
do_storage() in calcurse.c The function saves data about the selection
as needed, rebuilds the day vector, loads the listbox and sets the
selection from the saved selection data. This works well in "single
day" calcurse in cases where the selected item is present in the day
vector both before and after the rebuild, or when the item ordering in
the listbox is unaffected by the changes. But when a new item is added
the selection cannot be set to the new object by do_storage(). Instead
the necessary operations are performed by ui_day_item_add(), and
do_storage() is bypassed. In general, when an item cannot be found in
the new vector, the item which occupies the old place in the list gets
selected, e.g. when an item is deleted. When an item is turned into a
repeating one, the old item is deleted and a new is created. Here the
new selection is not always the affected item, but in any case not far
away. Generally, with only one day in the panel an erronous selection
might not be noticed or be accurate by chance.
In "multiple day" calcurse the existing scheme works less well; in
addition the day vector may now contain more than one object that refer
to the same event or appointment (recurrent items or multi-day
appointments). The scheme has therefore been modified. The do_storage()
function is no longer bypassed, but handles day vector rebuild, load of
listbox and item selection exclusively. To make that possible, data
about the selected item is no longer saved in a local automatic
variable, private to do_storage(), but in an external static variable in
day.c, which may be set not only by do_storage(). The variable is
declared as
static struct day_item sel_data;
and used as follows:
1. On startup sel_data is initialized to empty (i.e. no selection).
2. In any operation involving the appointments panel:
2.1 Do the work and if necessary set sel_data. This is the case when
deleting, adding or pasting an item, and when turning an ordinary
item into a recurrent one.
2.2 Call do_storage().
3. In do_storage():
3.1 If sel_data is empty, set it to the current selection.
3.2 Rebuild the day vector.
3.3 Set the selection from sel_data.
3.4 Set sel_data to empty.
Further remarks
---------------
The selection is found in the new day vector by searching for the saved
(order, item.<pointer>) pair. Previously the item.<pointer> alone
sufficed and in some cases it still does. In case the item cannot be
found, the selection stays in the same day as before the rebuild.
An attempt at more consistently named APP-related functions has led to:
ui_day_sel_date() replaces ui_day_sel_day() ui_day_get_sel() replaces
ui_day_selitem()

Overview of existing implementation
-----------------------------------
The APP panel displays the 'day_items' vector in the 'lb_apt' listbox. A
listbox consists of a scrollwin (structure) in which a number of items
is displayed. The listbox keeps track of:
- the number of items
- the selected item
- the type of each item in an array type[]
- the height of each item (ie. how many screen lines) in an array ch[]
- how to display an item (on the screen)
The latter three are handled by functions fn_type(), fn_height(),
fn_draw(). The first two are used to fill in the corresponding array
entry, type[] or ch[], for item number i, the third draws item number i.
The items are taken from the global variables
vector_t day_items
int day_items_nb
in day.c. Items include captions (DAY_HEADING, DAY_SEPARATOR).
Everything is sorted for display (DAY_HEADING, events, DAY_SEPARATOR,
appts). These are filled in ("stored") [by day_store_items() for the
selected day in the calendar], before being "loaded" into the listbox.
See do_storage() in calcurse.c and ui_day_item_add() in ui-day.c.
New APP panel design
--------------------
Several days are displayed in the APP panel by loading them with
day_store_items().
With several days come several headings and separators. DAY_SEPARATOR is
reinterpreted to separate days, and a new separator, EVNT_SEPARATOR,
separates events from appointments. To sort everything, an 'order'
member of type time_t is added to the day_item structure. It is set for
headings and separators as well as for appointments and events as
follows:
item order
---------------------
DAY_HEADING BGNOFDAY (= midnight)
EVNT_SEPARATOR BGNOFDAY
DAY_SEPARATOR ENDOFDAY
event start time (midnight)
appointment start time (first day)
BGNOFDAY (following days, if any)
The sort function day_cmp() (used by vector_sort) is extended to sort by
order first.
The order field always indicates the day to which an item belongs. This
comes in handy, because with several days in the APP panel it is
necessary to distinguish between the selected day in the calendar and
the selected day in the APP panel. This raises the question which day
should actions (commands) operate on: the one selected in the calendar
or the one selected in the APP panel? Unquestionably the one on the APP
panel which is the one tacitly implied. In most cases it is not a
problem, though, because actions work on the selected item and the
selected day does not come into play. But in some cases it does:
delete item When deleting an occurrence of a repeated item, the
selected day is the exception day to add.
view item day_popup_item() needs the day of the selected item
for display of correct start/end times.
cut/paste item Paste needs the selected day in which to paste.
add item The day of the new item is taken from the calendar.
Instead a dummy event is inserted in an empty day.
This makes the day selectable, which is otherwise
impossible with only the DAY_HEADING displayed. The
dummy event is selectable but cannot be edited or
deleted (but viewed or piped).
With more than one day in the day_items vecter, an appointment spanning
more than one day may occur more than once in the vector (with start/end
times suitably adjusted for display). A day_item is no longer (always)
identified by the aptev_ptr (item) value. Instead the combination
(order, item.<ptr>) is used; order is roughly the day.

The exception days are presented for viewing/editing as a string of

editing the string is checked for valid dates, but there is no check

Calcurse saves time and date information on disk as local time in readable text
file format. When loaded from disk or when entered by the user, local time is
converted to Unix time (seconds since 00:00:00, 1 January 1970). When
displayed, and later when saved to disk, the Unix time is converted back to
readable local time. Both conversions depend on DST.
Hence, if midnight for a day with DST in effect (i.e. local time) is converted,
increased with an amount and converted back, the amount has changed if DST is
_not_ in effect for the resulting time. In general, calculations on Unix time
variables should be used with caution because of the DST-dependent conversions.
Instead, the calculations should be performed on local time data with the help
of mktime().
The commit fixes start time for pasted appointments (ordinary and recurrent)
and the 'until'-date of recurrent appointments, pasted as well as new and
edited. The latter problem is slightly different in that the adjustment is a
number of days, as it is for exception dates.
Update of the date in parse_datetime() has been corrected to be similar to
update of the time, although no problem has been identified.
