Description
Hi,
The current at command is relatively strict in what it accepts as a parameter. I think it would be nice if it could accept things like this - maybe with a new command "on":
khal on 11 - where it guesses the day is the 11th
khal on tomorrow - self-explanatory
khal on tomorrow+1, +2, +3, - day after tomorrow, day after that, etc.
Or maybe also:
khal in mar - show events in March etc.
I realise creating this software means a lot of work for the developer - so, first of all, many thanks for doing this. It really helps me in day-to-day's work. Second, I am happy to take a stab at this myself soonish if you're OK with it?

Research direction
Start by locating khal's existing at command entry point and reviewing how the proposed on and in forms would fit its current parameter handling. Before implementation, clarify the supported date expressions and expected behavior; done would require agreed syntax and coverage for examples such as tomorrow offsets and month queries.
