Description

I can edit an event using ikhal to set a new date. But I have to set the date as a string (e.g. 2017-08-12). Would it be possible to move the events around? The way I see it working:

  • open ikhal, focus on a day with events
  • press Enter (entering the list of events), select an event you want to move (use arrows/jk)
  • press 'm' (move): the focus is back on the calendar allowing you to select another day
  • navigate around the calendar to pick a new day and press Enter

Is something like this on khal's roadmap?

Research direction

Start by locating ikhal’s event-editing and calendar-navigation entry points; the issue names no files or tests. Trace how an event is selected and its date edited, then assess the requested move flow from event selection through choosing a new calendar day. Done means an event can be moved using the proposed keyboard interaction and the behavior is covered by tests.
