Description

I would like to be able to see what the recurrence is for a recurring meeting, particularly on import.
As the event display is controlled by a --format or equivalent configuration, I would propose having a {repeat} or {repeat-details} format option, even if that means it is just a dump of the "raw" RRULE as the first pass.

Research direction

Start by tracing the --format or equivalent configuration into event display, especially for imported recurring meetings. Determine how the recurrence RRULE is represented and what the proposed {repeat} or {repeat-details} output should contain. Done means a format option displays the recurrence details for recurring meetings, with coverage for imported events.
