* FIX when using short dates, khal infers that you meant next year, when date
  is before today
* FIX Check for multi_uid .ics files in vdirs and don't import those events
  (All .ics files in vdirs should only contain VEVENTS with the same UID.)

* CHANGE removed default command
* CHANGE default date/time formats to be the system's locale's formats

* NEW khal learned the ``--logfile/-l LOGFILE`` flag which allows logging to a
  file
* NEW format can now print the duration of an event with `{duration}`
* NEW format supports `{nl}`, `{tab}`, `{bell}`. `{status}` has a whitespace
  like `{cancelled}`
* NEW configuration option: [view]monthdisplay = firstday|firstfullweek,
  if set to 'firstday', khal displays the month name as soon as any day
  in the week is within the new month. If set to 'firstfullweek', khal
  displays the month name only if the first day of the week is within
  the new month.

* NEW ikhal learned to show log messages in the header and in a new log pane,
  access with default keybinding `L`

* NEW python 3.7 is now officially supported.

* NEW configuration option [[per_calendar]]priority = int (default 10). If
  multiple calendars events are on the same day, the day will be colored with
  the color of the calendar with highest priority. If multiple calendars have
  the same highest priority, it falls back to the previous system.

* NEW format can now print the organizer of the event with '(organizer)'

0.9.3
=====
released 2017-03-06

* FIX `list` (and commands based on it like `calendar`, `at`, and `search`)
  crashed if `--notstarted` was given and allday events were found (introduced
  in 0.9.2)
* FIX `list --notstarted` (and commands based on it) would show events only on
  the first day of their occurrence and not on all further days
* FIX `configure` would crash if neither "import config from vdirsyncer" nor
  "create locale vdir" was selected

* NEW khal will now show cancelled events with a big CANCELLED in front (can be
  configured via event formatting)
* NEW ikhal supports editing an event's raw icalendar content in an external
  editor ($EDITOR), default keybinding is `alt + shift + e`. Only use this, if
  you know what you are doing, the icalendar library we use doesn't do a lot of
  validation, it silently disregards most invalid data.

0.9.2
=====
released 2017-02-13

* FIX if weekstart != 0 ikhal would show wrong weekday names
* FIX allday events added with `khal new DATE TIMEDELTA` (e.g., 2017-01-18 3d)

  was set to "right"

* CHANGED default `agenda_day_format` to include the actual date of the day

* NEW configuration option: [view]dynamic_days = True, if set to False, ikhal's
  right column behaves similar as it did in 0.8.x

0.9.1
=====
released 2017-01-25

* FIX detecting not understood timezone information failed on python 3.6, this may lead to
  erroneous offsets in start and end times for those events, as those datetimes
  were treated as if they were in the system's local time, not as if they are in
  the (possibly) configured default_timezone.

* python 3.6 is now officially supported

0.9.0
=====
released 2017-01-24

Dependency Changes
------------------
* vdirsyncer isn't a hard dependency any more

Bug Fixes
---------
* fixed various bugs in `configure`
* fix bug in `new` that surfaces when date(time)format does contain a year
* fix bug in `import` that allows importing into read-only and/or non-default calendar
* fix how color discovered in calendars

Backwards Incompatibilities
---------------------------
* calendar path is now a glob without recursion for discover, if your calendars
  are no longer found, please consult the documentation (Taylor Money)
* `at` command now works like `list` with a timedelta of `0m`, this means that
  `at` will no longer print events that end at exactly the time asked for
  (Taylor Money)
* renamed `agenda` to `list` (Taylor Money)
* removed `days` configuration option in favor of `timedelta`, see
  documentation for details (Taylor Money)
* configuration file path $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/khal/config is now supported and
  $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/khal/khal.conf deprecated
* ikhal: introduction of three different new frame styles, new allowed values for
  `[view] frame` are `False`, `width`, `color`, `top` (with default `False`),
  `True` isn't allowed any more, please provide feedback over the usual channels
  if and which of those you consider useful as some of those might be removed in
  future releases (Christian Geier)
* removed configuration variable `encoding` (in section [locale]), the correct
  locale should now be figured out automatically (Markus Unterwaditzer)
* events that start and end at the same time are now displayed as if their
  duration was one hour instead of one day (Guilhem Saurel)

Enhancements
------------
* (nearly) all commands allow formatting of how events are printed with
  `--format`, also see the new configuration options `event_format`,
  `agenda_event_format`, `agenda_day_format` (Taylor Money)
* support for categories (and add `-g` flag for `khal new`) (Pierre David)
* search results are now sorted by start date (Taylor Money)
* added command `edit`, which also allows deletion of events (Taylor Money)
* `new` has interactive option (Taylor Money)
* `import` can now import multiple files at once (Christian Geier)

ikhal
-----
* BUGFIX no more crashing if invalid date is entered and mini-calendar displayed
* make keybinding for quitting configurable, defaults to *q* and *Q*, escape
  only backtracks to last pane but doesn't exit khal anymore (Christian Geier)
* default keybinding changed: `tab` no longer shows details of focused events
  and does not open the event editor either (Christian Geier)
* right column changed, it will now show as many days/events as fit, if users move
  to another date (while the event column is in focus), that date should be
  highlighted in the calendar (Christian Geier)
* cursor indicates which element is selected

0.8.4
=====
released 2016-10-06

* **IMPORTANT BUGFIX** fixed a bug that lead to imported events being
  erroneously shifted if they had a timezone identifier that wasn't an Olson
  database identifier. All users are advised to upgrade as soon as possible. To
  see if you are affected by this and how to resolve any issues, please see the
  release announcement (khal/doc/source/news/khal084.rst or
  http://lostpackets.de/khal/news/khal084.html). Thanks to Wayne Werner for
  finding and reporting this bug.

* fixed a check for icalendar files containing RDATEs

0.8.2

* in `khal new` treat 24:00 as the end of a day/00:00 of the next (Christian Geier)
* new allowed value for a calendar's color: `auto` (also the new default), if
  set, khal will try to read a file called `color` from that calendar's vdir (see
  vdirsyncer's documentation on `metasync`). If that file is not present or its
  contents is not understood, the default color will be used (Christian Geier)
* new allowed value for calendar's type: `discover`, if set, khal will
  (recursively) search that calendar's path for valid vdirs and add those to
  the configured calendars (Christian Geier)

  file (Christian Geier)
* warn user when parsing broken icalendar files, this requires icalendar > 3.9.2

0.7.0
=====
released on 2015-11-24

There are no new or dropped dependencies.

* most of the internal representation of events was rewritten, the current
  benefit is that floating events are properly represented now, hopefully more
  is to come (Christian Geier)
* `printformats` uses a more sensible date now (John Shea)
* khal and ikhal can now highlight dates with events, at the moment, enabling it
  does noticably slow down (i)khal's start; set *[default] highlight_event_days
  = True* and see section *[highlight_days]* for further configuration (Dominik
  Joe Pantůček)
* fixed line wrapping for `at` (Thomas Schape)
* `calendar` and `agenda` optionally print location and description of all
  events, enable with the new --full/-f flag (Thomas Schaper)

  in another calendar (but no data lost incurred) (Christian Geier)

ikhal
-----
* events are now displayed nicer (Thomas Glanzmann)
* support for colorschemes, a *light* and *dark* one are currently included,
  help is wanted to make them prettier and more functional (config option
  *[view] theme: (dark|light)*) (Christian Geier)
* ikhal can now display frames around some user interface elements, making it
  nicer to look at in some eyes (config option *[view] frame: True*) (Christian
  Geier)
* events can now be duplicated (default keybinding: *p*) (Christian Geier)
* events created while time ranges are selected (default keybinding to enable date range
  selection: *v*) will default to that date range (Christian Geier)
* when trying to delete recurring events, users are now asked if they want to
  delete the complete event or just this instance (Christian Geier)

0.6.0
=====
2015-07-15

* BUGFIX Recurrent events with a THISANDFUTURE parameter could affect other
  events. This could lead to events not being found by the normal lookup
  functionality when they should and being found when they shouldn't. As the
  second case should result in an error that nobody reported yet, I hope nobody
  got bitten by this.
* new dependency for running the tests: freezegun
* new dependency for setup from scm: setuptools_scm
* khal now needs to be installed for building the documentation

* ikhal's should now support ctrl-e, ctrl-a, ctrl-k and ctrl-u in editable text
  fields (Thomas Glanzmann)

  and left (Pierre David)
* when editing descriptions you can now insert new lines (Thomas Glanzmann)
* khal should not choose an arbitrary default calendar anymore (Markus
  Unterwaditzer)
* the zsh completion file has been updated (Hugo Osvaldo Barrera)

  or EXDATE properties that are in Zulu time (thanks to Michele Baldessari for
  reporting those)
* bugfix: on systems with a local time of UTC-X dealing with allday events lead
  to crashes
* bugfix: British summer time is recognized as daylight saving time (Bradley
  Jones)
* compatibility with vdirsyncer 0.5

* new command `search` allows searching for events
* user changeable keybindings in ikhal, with hjkl as default alternatives for
  arrows in calendar browser, see documentation for more details
* new command `at` shows all events scheduled for a specific datetime
* support for reading birthdays from vcard collections (set calendar/collection
  `type` to *birthdays*)
* new command `printformats` prints a fixed date in all configured date-time
  settings
* `new` now supports the `--until`/`-u` flag to specify until when recurring
  events should run (Micah Nordland)

0.4.0
=====
released on 2015-02-02

dependency changes
------------------
* new dependency: click>3.2
* removed dependency: docopt
* note to package mantainers: `requirements.txt` has been removed, dependencies
  are still listed in `setup.py`

note to users
-------------
* users will need to delete the local database, no data should be lost (and
  khal will inform the user about this)

new and changed features
------------------------
* new config_option: `[default] print_new`, lets the user decide what should be
  printed after adding a new event
* new config option: `[default] show_all_days` lets users decide if they want to
  see days without any events in agenda and calendar view (thanks to Pierre
  David)
* khal (and ikhal) can now display weeknumbers
* khal new can now create repetitive events (with --repeat), see documentation
  (thanks to Eric Scheibler)
* config file: the debug option has been removed (use `khal -v` instead)
* FIX: vtimezones were not assembled properly, this lead to spurious offsets of
  events in some other calendar applications
* change in behaviour: recurring events are now always expanded until 2037
* major speedup in inserting events into the caching database, especially
  noticeable when running khal for the first time or after a deleting the
  database (Thanks to Markus Unterwaditzer)
* better support for broken events, e.g. events ending before they start
  (Thanks to Markus Unterwaditzer)
* more recurrence rules are supported, khal will print warnings on unsupported
  rules

ikhal
-----
* ikhal's calendar should now be filled on startup
* pressing `t` refocuses on today
* pressing ctrl-w in input fields should delete the last word before the cursor
* when the focus is set on the events list/editor, the current date should
  still be visible in the calendar

0.3.1
=====
released on 2014-09-08

* FIX: events deleted in the vdir are not shown anymore in khal. You might want
  to delete your local database file, if you have deleted any events on the
  server.
* FIX: in some cases non-ascii characters were printed even if unicode_symbols
  is set to False in the config
* FIX: events with different start and end timezones are now properly exported
  (the end timezone was disregarded when building an icalendar, but since
  timezones cannot be edited anyway, this shouldn't have caused any problems)
* FIX: calendars marked as read-only in the configuration file should now really
  be read-only

0.3.0
=====
released on 2014-09-03

* new unified documentation
    * html documentation (website) and man pages are all generated from the same
      sources via sphinx (type `make html` or `make man` in doc/, the result
      will be build in *build/html* or *build/man* respectively)
    * the new documentation lives in doc/
    * the package sphinxcontrib-newsfeed is needed for generating the html
      version (for generating an RSS feed)
    * the man pages live doc/build/man/, they can be build by running
      `make man` in doc/sphinx/
* new dependencies: configobj, tzlocal>=1.0
* **IMPORTANT**: the configuration file's syntax changed (again), have a look at the new
  documentation for details
* local_timezone and default_timezone will now be set to the timezone the
  computer is set to (if they are not set in the configuration file)
