Description
fao @sprak3000 -
The bash script assumes that if the `$events` command has no output, that means there's no events.
But it could be that there's an error in running the command, and this error should be shown to the user.
Also, here's a more recent updated version of iCalBuddy: https://github.com/dkaluta/icalBuddy64

Research direction
Start with 001-zooms-today.5m.sh and inspect how the $events command is run and how empty output is handled. Make command errors visible to the user instead of treating them as no events, then run the plugin with both valid and failing command cases to verify the behavior.
