xdkcal

xdkcal is not so fancy as gdeskcal and provides a simple transparent Desktop calendar. Run xdkcal from a terminal, you should see like below.

xdkcal1
xdkcal

xdkcal -p8 -n3 -M red -x 0 -y 0 provides a more better look. To understand its command options please execute 'man xdkcal'

xdkcal2
xdkcal -p8 -n3 -M red -x 0 -y 0

When you feel satisfied with a setting just add xdkcal & in your .xinitrc. Remember xdkcal remembers the setting. Now .xinitrc should look like

xdkcal &
chbg -scenario chbg.list &
icewm-session

I have noticed in my machine that gdeskcal loads faster than xdkcal and obviously the skins made gdeskcal very nice. More over gdeskcal is totally controlled by GUI.
