pAgenda-3.0

Calendar/scheduler written in Python.
Uses sqlite database for multiple users/schedules yet small enough single db files to mail or put on disk. A single click prints daily schedule.

pAgenda is by Paul Sherman <psherma1@rochester.rr.com> http://www.pcbypaul.com
and is released under the GPL2 licence.

Most calendars primary goal is use as eye-candy, or they are designed for inter/intra office communication/collaboration. pAgenda is meant to view/edit/print appointments quickly and easily. Why waste your time when you've got things to do?

pAgenda is written in Python with the wxWidgets toolkit. It makes use of the lightweight, Public Domain sqlite database.

On Windows there is no installation needed. The expanded zip folder contains all the needed support files, including the database. For Linux the source code is available. (However, since this is Python, once the dependencies are met, there is no compilation needed.)

When run, pAgenda will ask for a user (schedule) name, and will generate a database in the currently logged-in user's home directory (on Windows, the user's "My Documents.")

Add and delete appointmentas as you wish. The results are immediately saved in the database. The file name for the generated database is:

[dbnameyou_entered].db
(2 underscores for "global" DBs)

So you can copy/send the file anywhere you like. If someone else is using pAgenda they can just drop that file into their home (My Documents) folder and look it over in their version of pAgenda. The database name will show up in the dropdown box in the top panel, and by choosing it will open that schedule.

You can keep as many different schedules as like, for different event or other people -- but realize that for anyone who logs onto a PC with a different user name, pAgenda will be loolking in THEIR home folder for the schedules. Also looks in the program folder (where the exe or .py file is contained) and will open any DB there as read-only of the user does not have write permissions on that directory -- or with full access if aplicable.
