When Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) came out, I was stunned by
Dashboard. Sure, we have Superkaramba, but the effects and
quality of the applets in Dashboard are much higher. Liquid
Weather++ is the best looking, feature rich Superkaramba
theme out there. Apart from that, there just aren’t many
interesting themes for me out there. I don’t want a big pile
of sensors, a Kicker replacement or whatnot. Another few
multimedia themes and that’s about it. So, it’s time to
immitate.
I never worked with Superkaramba themes before, not even
with Python. But I took up the challenge and dbKalendar is
the result. ‘db’ stands for Dashboard, of course. Plus a
nice ‘k’ in ‘kalendar’, because of KDE.

It is quite attractive! I just installed 0.9.4 a few days ago. Have to admit that I don’t understand some of the features, though. Okay, double-click to highlight a day, or on the small arrows to browse forward and back by a month, or to return to today. (I was single-clicking; only a small difference of opinion about how it should work, there.)
But WHAT is that small text entry bar that appears when I double-click on the big date?
Documentation, my friend, is even more valuable than shiny transparent backgrounds. :)
