Rainlendar is a desktop calendar that can be personalized according to user's preferences. It provides a variety of features to help keep track of tasks and events in an organized manner.
With Rainlendar, you can even customize the appearance of the calendar using skins and mix different skins together. Additionally, you can use the application with other calendar applications as Rainlendar uses the standard iCalendar format to store its events and tasks - this makes it easy to transfer them between applications.
Rainlendar also supports online calendar subscriptions and allows you to view your Outlook appointments directly in the application. The best part is that it supports different languages, thanks to its Unicode support and localization.
The coming events are displayed in a separate list, where you can view them all in one glance. You can also customize the appearance of the events in the list, so you can easily spot the important events. You also get icons in the calendar that are available in the event list and other windows - this makes it easier to separate the events.
Rainlendar also comes with a separate list for your long-term tasks, which can be arranged in different ways for better organization. You can even set a due date for the tasks to ensure that you don't forget to do them on time.
To make sure that you don't miss any event or task, Rainlendar provides an alarm system that you can define to be set off before the actual event, giving you enough time to prepare for it.
Rainlendar Lite also provides other features such as support for Windows transparency, the ability to synchronize events between several clients, showing an alarm when an event is due, showing Outlook's appointments, including a to-do-list, and more. It is small, lightweight, and supports hotkeys for quick access. It can also be controlled from 3rd party applications with !bangs.
