  • Next... Monday..Friday at xx:xx
Hope it's working fine! (And I hope I didn't introduce any breakage to old features...)
Also, I'm not all too happy with the spinbox for the number of s/min/h/d. Requires an awful lot of tapping or using the keyboard. And I didn't find a way to make they keyboard automatically switch to "fn" mode for typing in numbers. I'll see if I can improve this.

(ETA: I know it has command lines, I was suggesting presets)
I'll look into it.

That'll get me away from the buggy MfE and only being able to sync one calendar and eliminate a bug with email related to MfE.
Cool idea. Glad you like it

Ah, thanks for the hint! I didn't know that. I'll adjust them for the next release.
