Description
Hello,
first of all thank you for your effort! I use ikhal in a split screen in a tmux session side by side with taskwarrior. So it would be cool if I could configure ikhal in a way that 1 or 2 month was printed and then below of it the events so I can save space on the right. Maybe it would be cool too if there was a an empty line between the months. Instead of a new line a different background color could work. In taskwarrior every second line has a grey background. Maybe this is useful for the list view too. ikhal runs here 24 hours 7 days a week. I have to change the selected day by hand every day maybe ikhal can do this automatically?
My idea about khal new is that I could add an appointment like
khal new today+2d 16:30+1h Coffee Break or
khal new tomorrow+2w 16:30+30m Coffee Break
Thanks you for this cool program!
Bye

Research direction
Start by separating the requests for ikhal month and event layout, visual styling, automatic selected-day changes, and khal new date arithmetic. Read the ikhal and khal new entry points and identify the existing calendar display and date-parsing behavior before choosing one scoped feature. Done should mean the selected behavior is configurable or accepted by the command and is covered by the project's relevant tests.
