This reverts commit 0f3d198 (Interrupt periodic save when launching
process, 2017-09-08).
Stopping and starting periodic save when external/hook programs are run
causes deadlocks. The periodic save thread cannot be stopped/started at
will, but should be started once and run uninterrupted as long as
calcurse runs. Only if the configuration parameter is changed, must the
thread be stopped and possibly restarted.
The reasons are
- the start routine unconditionally starts a thread.
- the mechanism used to detect whether a thread is running or not, is
designed to be used by the main calcurse thread only and with only one
running thread of each kind (the thread ID of each running thread is
kept in a variable; if the thread is not running, the variable has the
main thread ID as value).
Any load hook will be run at the initial dataload, and the stop/start
calls will start a perodic save thread (this is true for the notify
thread as well). Later when threads are started, a second periodic save
thread is started (for the notify thread, a running thread is stopped
before restart).
When hooks are run by the periodic save thread, the stop call breaks
down, leading to two running save threads (if not the case already) and
subsequently to a deadlock when one thread tries to stop the other.

the UNTIL day, see comment in ical.c

The patch derives the item type (appointment or event) from the DTSTART
value type. It is then used to perform an extended check of date/time
values and reject non-conformant import files (like those reported in
Github issues #81, (calcurse) events.
The patch includes parsing and code corrections and minor refactoring.
Background:
Ical events are of two types, in calcurse called appointments and
events. RFC 5545 has no distinguishing names for them, but describes
them in section 3.6.1. The event type is derived from the value type of
the DTSTART property. The value type may be either DATE-TIME
(appointment) or DATE (event). If not specified by a VALUE property
parameter in DTSTART, the default value type is DATE-TIME. The value
type must be set explicitly to DATE to get an event. Other properties
and rrule parts must agree with the DTSTART value type (DTEND, DURATION,
EXDATE and UNTIL).
Previously the type of an imported event was derived from the format of
the DTSTART value. The DTSTART value type was not taken into account
when importing, and not specified for recurring events when exporting
(commit 0114289 solved it for events, see GitHub PR #97).

The day vector (or "day_items" vector) is used to load the appointments
panel with "day_items" (captions, appointments, events). A multi-day
appointment has several "day_items" in the day vector. This may also be
the case for a recurring item.
The day_item structure has a member "start", which for day_items for
recurring appointments is set to the occurrence found by
recur_item_find_occurrence(), and is used to tell days of a multi-day
appointment apart.
For day_items for recurring events it was set to "day" of the
recur_event structure (the same value for all occurrences) and not used.
The value is now the occurrence found by recur_event_find_occurrence().

The function update_rept() is extended with editing of the three

The integers of the bymonth and bymonthday lists are edited directly as
integers, while those of the bywday list are mapped to localized weekday
names (as they appear in the calendar panel) with an optional integer
prefix (in RFC5545 style: 1MO, -2SA).
The RFC5545 (icalendar) requirement that the start day must be the first
occurrence and must match the recurrence rule, is met by testing that an
occurrence indeed appears on the start day, in these circumstances:
- when a recurrent item is loaded from file
- when the recurrence rule of an item is edited interactively
- when a recurrent appointment gets a new start time
- when a recurrent appointment is moved
Copy and paste of a recurrent item will only retain the basic recurrence
properties of type, frequency, until and exception days.

Overall design
--------------
Calcurse is extended with full support for BYMONTH, BYDAY and BYMONTHDAY
recurrence rule (rrule) parts. The three rule parts are lists of,
respectively, months, weekdays and monthdays. The lists are added to
'struct rpt' as linked lists of integers, and the data file format is
extended accordingly (details below). Load and save of the lists follow
the pattern of the existing list of exception dates, also in 'struct
rpt'.
The function recur_item_find_occurence() is split into a front-end and a
back-end. The back-end, called find_occurrence(), is the original
function extended with rrule reductions; the front-end retains the
original name and performs rrule expansions. Front-end plus back-end are
backwards compatible and require no changes in calling functions.
There is no user interface in this patch.
Data file extensions
--------------------
The BYMONTH, BYDAY and BYMONTHDAY lists are added to that part of an
item line which describes the recurrence rule (the "{...}" part). Each
list is - like the list of exception days - a space-separated string of
values identified by the initial character. Each list is optional and,
if present, must follow the until date and precede the exception day
list. The lists must appear in order BYMONTHDAY list, BYDAY list and
BYMONTH list.
The possible list values are
- BYMONTH: m1, m2, ..., m12
- BYDAY: w0, w1, ..., w6, w7, w-7, w8, w-8, ..., w377, w-377
- BYMONTHDAY: d1, d2, ..., d31, d-1, d-2, ..., d-31
which are interpreted as (cf. RFC 5545)
- BYMONTH: January, February, ..., December.
- BYDAY: SU, MO, ..., SA, +1SU, -1SU, +1MO, -1MO, ..., +53SA, -53SA
- BYMONTHDAY: the first, the second, ..., the 31st, the last,
the last but one, ..., the last but 30 day of the month
Examples:
Thursday, TH, is w4; Saturday, SA, is w6.
The seventh Thursday, +7TH, is w53 (7 * 7 + 4 = 53); the last but second
Saturday, -2SA, is w-20 (2 * 7 + 6 = 20); the last day of the month is
d-1.
Note that the values w-1, w-2, ..., w-6 are not used.
A recurrent appointment with a BYDAY rule part:
06/23/2019 @ 12:00 -> 06/23/2019 @ 13:00 {1W w0 w6} |every week on Sunday and Saturday
An event with a BYDAY and a BYMONTH rule part:
10/27/2019 [1] {1Y w-7 m10} every year on last Sunday in October
An event with until date, a BYMONTH rule part and an exception day:
06/23/2019 [1] {1Y -> 08/31/2021 m5 m6 m7 !07/23/2020} every year on the 23rd in May, June and July for three years, starting on Sunday, 23 June 2019, but not on 23 July 2020.
Recurrence set expansion and reduction
---------------------------------------
In calcurse a recurrence rule is a quadruple (s, d, r, e) consisting of
start, duration, repetition pattern and exception days and is
implemented as:
(time_t start, long dur, struct rpt *rpt, llist_t *exc)
In RFC 5545 parlance, a recurrence rule defines a recurrence set
consisting of all recurrence instances (occurrences) not earlier than
start which match the rule pattern. With this concept in mind,
recur_item_find_occurremce() may be thought of as a membership function
for a recurrence set. The call
recur_item_find_occurrence(s, d, r, e, day, occurrence)
returns true if day belongs to the recurrence set of (s, d, r, e); if so
occurrence points to the recurrence instance (the set member).
For a recurrence rule with only the basic DAYLY, WEEKLY, MONTHLY or
YEARLY type and frequency the recurrence set consists of periodically
repeated instances. The BYxxx rule parts modify the recurrence set by
reducing or expanding it as specified by RFC 5545.
Expansion is implemented in the front-end by modifications of start
and/or frequency of the rule (s, d, r, e), often several times, in such
a way that the desired recurrence instances are included in the
recurrence set. This is possible because the front-end as the very first
thing checks for early days (day < s). When day is known not to be
early, start (s) can safely be moved backwards. Likewise, if frequency
must be changed, the front-end checks whether the frequency repetition
applies to the week, month or year of day.
Reduction is easier and is performed in the back-end along with the
existing validity checks. It consists in checking whether month, day of
month or weekday of a found occurrence is on the appropriate list.

The patch contains no functional changes, but is a necessary
precondition for extensions of update_rept() (in ui-day.c) with further
recurrence rules.
The reason is that recurrence parameters must be treated as a whole: if
an edit session is cancelled at any point, no value should change, and
all parameters should remain as they were. Hence, the new values must
only be set after all of them have been determined. This was not the
case for the list of exception days, but as long as it was treated last,
it did not matter.

Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <lfleischer@calcurse.org>
The recurrence parameters are type, frequency, until date and exception
list (in RFC 5545 parlance FREQ, INTERVAL, UNTIL and EXDATE's). When
these are passed in a function call, the argument list becomes long and
not very readable. When support for extended recurrence rules is
implemented, the number of recurrence parameters increases, and function
signatures must be amended.
Solution: The "struct rpt" is extended with the exception list; any
future recurrence parameters are added here. A pointer to this structure
replaces the recurrence parameters in function calls.
Note: Each recurrent event and appoinment instance has (a pointer to) a
"struct rpt" and in addition an exception list. The latter is retained
to avoid the derived changes, and the exception list in the structure is
initialized to an empty list when the recurrent instance is created.

03/31/2019 @ 04:00 -> 03/31/2019 @ 05:00 {1W} |weekly - appears after one week
03/31/2019 @ 12:00 -> 03/31/2019 @ 12:00 {1M} |monthly - never appears
03/31/2019 @ 12:00 -> 03/31/2019 @ 12:00 {1Y} |yearly - never appears
10/20/2019 @ 00:00 -> 10/21/2019 @ 01:00 {1W -> 11/03/2019} |25 hours - ends on 27th, but continues on 28th

The root cause is two mktime() calls in recur_item_find_occurrence(),
both of which use an inherited tm_isdst value in the tm structure. In
such cases mktime() will "normalize" the tm stucture if tm_isdst is 0 or
1 and in disagreement with the rest of the tm contents (just like 32 May
will be normalized to 1 June).
Example. In 2019 DST started on 31/3 at 02:00:00 (in the European
Union). If the (local) time "31/3/2018 00:00:00" is passed to mktime()
with tm_isdst = 0, the return value is (say) T sec and the tm structure
is unchanged, because DST is not in effect at midnight. If the same call
is performed with tm_isdst = 1, the return value becomes (T - 3600) sec
and the tm structure is normalized to "30/3/2018 23:00:00", tm_isdst =
0.
In recur_item_find_occurrence(), the normalized tm structure with wrong
day and time is used in ensuing calculations, leading to wrong dates and
the errors observed.
The first mktime() call is used to calculate the "day span" of the
occurrence before the occurrence itself has been determined. But once
the occurence is known, the "day span" is easily determined, and there
is no need for the first mktime() call.
Events have no explicit duration. However, recur_event_find_occurrence()
and recur_event_inday() set the duration of an event to DAYINSEC before
passing it on to recur_item_find_occurrence(). The value is not correct
on the day when DST begins or ends. The interpretation of the daylength
should be left to the called function. Hence, duration is set to -1 to
signal no (explicit) duration.

A day begins on midnight (inclusive) and ends on midnight (exclusive). A
day as a whole is represented by the initial midnight, i.e. time-of-day
is 00:00.
On load of recurrent appointments (but not events) time-of-day for the
until day is set to 23:59. For a newly created recurrent appointment the
setting depends on the input method: time-of-day is set to 00:00 if
until day is given as a date (day, month and year), but to time-of-day
for the start day if given as an offset (+dd).
The resulting behaviour is only visible in interactive use of calcurse
as proved by the following scenario.
1) Create an appointment with start time 12:00, end time 11:59 (multi
day).
2) Turn it into a recurrent appointment of type daily, frequency 3,
until day +3.
The appointment is correctly displayed with two 2-day occurrences three
days apart.
3) Edit the appointment and select Repetition. Accept existing type,
frequency and end day (now as a date).
The second day of the second occurrence disappears.
4) Repeat 3), but set the end day as an offset (+3).
The second day of the second occurrence reappears.
The inconsistencies have been eliminated, and time-of-day for the until
day is now always 00:00.
Also, until day may equal start day, so midnights should be compared.

The calculation of the year of the most recent occurrence for year dates before
the start date (disregarding the year) is incorrect for frequencies greater than
one. The most recent occurrence (for a date as mentioned) is either too far or
too close in the past. In most cases it does no harm because the most recent
ocurrence is in the past and does not span the date (i.e. there is no occurrence
on the day). But the following appointment shows the presence of the bug:
12/31/2019 @ 12:00 -> 01/01/2020 @ 12:00 {2Y} |new year
The occurence on 1 Jan 2020 is missing, because the most recent occurrence is
too far in the past (31 Dec 2018 instead of 31 Dec 2019). An occurrence appears
on 1 Jan 2021, because the most recent occurence is too close in the past (31
Dec 2020 instead of 31 Dec 2019).

Previously, with only one day visible at a time, the appointments panel
displayed the details of the day selected in the calendar (slctd_day);
information required for operations on items (day_items) can often be
derived from the selected day. The items available are derived from the
selected day. In particular, the selected item is derived from the
selected day.
With multiple days in the APP panel, the relation between selected day
(in the calendar) and the selected item (in the APP panel) has, in a
way, been turned around. The selected item may now be moved between days
without explicitly changing the selected day. Implicitly it is changed
when the target day of a move is unavailable.
This commit draws the full consequence: the selected day in the calendar
is always (set to) the day of the selected item in the APP panel.
The static variable 'struct date slctd_day' lives in ui_calendar.c and
is accessible through various public functions. To these are added
ui_calendar_set_slctd_day() which sets slctd_day directly.
The selected day retains its significance for load of the day vector (in
day_store_items()): the range of loaded days begins with the selected
day. Movements (up/down) in the APP panel will change the selected day
as the selected item moves among the already loaded days. Only when the
target of a movement is unreachable, will further days be loaded. On the
other hand, if the same range of days must be reloaded because of a
changed item, the selected item - and with it the selected day - must be
reset to the first day item (see do_storage()).
Movements in the calendar (generic-next-day, etc.) are not affected and
behave as previously, i.e. they will cause a range of days to be loaded
with the selected day as the first and the selected item as the first of
the selected day.

The number of days displayed in the APP panel has been made
configurable, maximum 21 days, default seven days.
With several days in the APP panel, it may be desirable to "squeeze" the
entries by leaving out the final empty line of each appointment and
lower the number of lines between consecutive days (0, 1, or 2). Both
are made general configuration options. To make a uniform display, an
empty line is added to a day without appointments, if appointments have
an empty line.

Much in the calendar is based on the selected day, struct date
slctd_day, in ui-calendar.c.
On the screen it is highlighted with a deviating colour. The highlight
effect has been changed to a pair of red square brackets that do not
obscure the day colour.
The week number (in the frame) used to be that of the selected day, but
has no obvious relation to the days in the APP panel. It has been
replaced by the year day number of the selected day. The week numbers of
all visible weeks are displayed to the left of the calendar.
Dates are displayed also for the overlapping parts of the first and last
week of the month (which do not belong to the month).
Days are accessible in the appointments panel as well as in the
calendar. Hence, validation of days (= inside UNIX time limits) must be
extended from the calendar (in ui_calendar_move()) to include loaded
days (in day_store_items()).

With multiple days in the APP panel, up/down movements should change
behaviour at the top and bottom of the list displayed, and load the
previous/next lot of days.
This requires that the move function returns the result of the
operation. Furthermore, the ability to move the selection to the
beginning of a day is needed when moving down (in order to move from the
first day to the last day). For this reason a DAY_SEPARATOR has been
inserted also after the last day of a lot.
Appointments have a listbox height of three to separate them clearly
when there is more than one in a day. This leaves a spurious empty line
at the end of a day with appointments. The DAY_SEPARATOR height is
reduced from two to one, and a new EMPTY_SEPARATOR of height one is
inserted in any day with only events.
When scrolling up the DAY_HEADING becomes visible when the selection
reaches the first item of the day.
The length of the separator (between events and appointments) is
adjusted to leave a space to the window border at both ends, thereby
making it a part of the day, not a separation between days.
The dummy event must also be recognisable when not the selected item and
is only inserted in interactive mode.
The test for a saved selection must also recognise caption items which
have item pointer NULL.
The function day_get_nb() has been renamed day_get_days().

The day vector, day_items, is displayed in the appointments panel; the
selected day_item object is highlighted (when the panel has the focus).
When items are inserted, edited, moved etc., and when the day is
changed, the day vector is rebuilt and displayed anew.
Problem: How shall the selection be set automatically in the context of
the new day vector?
In previous versions all of the above is mostly handled by the function
do_storage() in calcurse.c The function saves data about the selection
as needed, rebuilds the day vector, loads the listbox and sets the
selection from the saved selection data. This works well in "single
day" calcurse in cases where the selected item is present in the day
vector both before and after the rebuild, or when the item ordering in
the listbox is unaffected by the changes. But when a new item is added
the selection cannot be set to the new object by do_storage(). Instead
the necessary operations are performed by ui_day_item_add(), and
do_storage() is bypassed. In general, when an item cannot be found in
the new vector, the item which occupies the old place in the list gets
selected, e.g. when an item is deleted. When an item is turned into a
repeating one, the old item is deleted and a new is created. Here the
new selection is not always the affected item, but in any case not far
away. Generally, with only one day in the panel an erronous selection
might not be noticed or be accurate by chance.
In "multiple day" calcurse the existing scheme works less well; in
addition the day vector may now contain more than one object that refer
to the same event or appointment (recurrent items or multi-day
appointments). The scheme has therefore been modified. The do_storage()
function is no longer bypassed, but handles day vector rebuild, load of
listbox and item selection exclusively. To make that possible, data
about the selected item is no longer saved in a local automatic
variable, private to do_storage(), but in an external static variable in
day.c, which may be set not only by do_storage(). The variable is
declared as
static struct day_item sel_data;
and used as follows:
1. On startup sel_data is initialized to empty (i.e. no selection).
2. In any operation involving the appointments panel:
2.1 Do the work and if necessary set sel_data. This is the case when
deleting, adding or pasting an item, and when turning an ordinary
item into a recurrent one.
2.2 Call do_storage().
3. In do_storage():
3.1 If sel_data is empty, set it to the current selection.
3.2 Rebuild the day vector.
3.3 Set the selection from sel_data.
3.4 Set sel_data to empty.
Further remarks
---------------
The selection is found in the new day vector by searching for the saved
(order, item.<pointer>) pair. Previously the item.<pointer> alone
sufficed and in some cases it still does. In case the item cannot be
found, the selection stays in the same day as before the rebuild.
An attempt at more consistently named APP-related functions has led to:
ui_day_sel_date() replaces ui_day_sel_day() ui_day_get_sel() replaces
ui_day_selitem()

Overview of existing implementation
-----------------------------------
The APP panel displays the 'day_items' vector in the 'lb_apt' listbox. A
listbox consists of a scrollwin (structure) in which a number of items
is displayed. The listbox keeps track of:
- the number of items
- the selected item
- the type of each item in an array type[]
- the height of each item (ie. how many screen lines) in an array ch[]
- how to display an item (on the screen)
The latter three are handled by functions fn_type(), fn_height(),
fn_draw(). The first two are used to fill in the corresponding array
entry, type[] or ch[], for item number i, the third draws item number i.
The items are taken from the global variables
vector_t day_items
int day_items_nb
in day.c. Items include captions (DAY_HEADING, DAY_SEPARATOR).
Everything is sorted for display (DAY_HEADING, events, DAY_SEPARATOR,
appts). These are filled in ("stored") [by day_store_items() for the
selected day in the calendar], before being "loaded" into the listbox.
See do_storage() in calcurse.c and ui_day_item_add() in ui-day.c.
New APP panel design
--------------------
Several days are displayed in the APP panel by loading them with
day_store_items().
With several days come several headings and separators. DAY_SEPARATOR is
reinterpreted to separate days, and a new separator, EVNT_SEPARATOR,
separates events from appointments. To sort everything, an 'order'
member of type time_t is added to the day_item structure. It is set for
headings and separators as well as for appointments and events as
follows:
item order
---------------------
DAY_HEADING BGNOFDAY (= midnight)
EVNT_SEPARATOR BGNOFDAY
DAY_SEPARATOR ENDOFDAY
event start time (midnight)
appointment start time (first day)
BGNOFDAY (following days, if any)
The sort function day_cmp() (used by vector_sort) is extended to sort by
order first.
The order field always indicates the day to which an item belongs. This
comes in handy, because with several days in the APP panel it is
necessary to distinguish between the selected day in the calendar and
the selected day in the APP panel. This raises the question which day
should actions (commands) operate on: the one selected in the calendar
or the one selected in the APP panel? Unquestionably the one on the APP
panel which is the one tacitly implied. In most cases it is not a
problem, though, because actions work on the selected item and the
selected day does not come into play. But in some cases it does:
delete item When deleting an occurrence of a repeated item, the
selected day is the exception day to add.
view item day_popup_item() needs the day of the selected item
for display of correct start/end times.
cut/paste item Paste needs the selected day in which to paste.
add item The day of the new item is taken from the calendar.
Instead a dummy event is inserted in an empty day.
This makes the day selectable, which is otherwise
impossible with only the DAY_HEADING displayed. The
dummy event is selectable but cannot be edited or
deleted (but viewed or piped).
With more than one day in the day_items vecter, an appointment spanning
more than one day may occur more than once in the vector (with start/end
times suitably adjusted for display). A day_item is no longer (always)
identified by the aptev_ptr (item) value. Instead the combination
(order, item.<ptr>) is used; order is roughly the day.

This patch fixes all failings tests, but one, in PR #193.
Until now the missing initialization of day_items_nb has caused no
problems, because the variable was assigned to (=) before being used. In
the Multiple days implementation it is repeatedly increased (+=) in a
loop without being initialized first. Indeed, this may considered an
easily fixed bug. But the initialization really belongs in
day_init_vector() so that the call day_item_count(0) returns 0 if done
right after the call day_init_vector(). The bug only shows up in command
line mode because day_items_nb is not used in interactive mode.

The changes are related to the selected item and the visible lines in
the scroll window viewport.
In particular, the function listbox_fix_visible_region() has been
eliminated, and functions previously only called by it have been
removed. It performed several tasks that are now elsewhere. One was
removed in an earlier commit (scroll window pad improvement). The task
of making a multi-line item visible has been moved to
listbox_item_in_view(). The task of making a caption line above a text
line visible is listbox specific (for the ap_list) and will be moved to
ui_day_sel_move(), where it is needed.
Boundary checks for the listbox selection have been moved to
listbox_fix_sel().
For future use listbox_sel_move() returns success or failure.

A scroll window consists of a pad to write on, and a window through
which to view the pad, the viewport. The pad may change in size when new
contents are loaded into the scroll window. If so, the pad size is set
with wins_scrollwin_set_linecount(). But the offset into the pad (the
top line to be displayed in the viewport) is not adjusted, although it
may not be appropriate for the new pad size. The same is the case when a
scroll window is resized and the viewport changes size. This is probably
the cause of the problem solved by commit 0b46ad4, Avoid blank space
after the last list box item, and the fix has been removed.
The wins_scrollwin_set_linecount() has been renamed
wins_scrollwin_set_pad() and sets size as well as offset. The offset is
only changed if necessary.

According to RFC 5545 dates like 30 February and 31 June must be ignored
when derived from a recurrence rule.
calcurse relies on mktime() "normalization" of dates (e.g. turning 32
December 2019 into 1 January 2020 when moving from 31 December to the
next day).
Normalization may also lead to impossible dates in monthly and yearly

The change by commit "Fix display of time left before next appointment"
is not detected by the existing test because the time set has zero
seconds.
Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <lfleischer@calcurse.org>
In the notify bar, the clock is shown in hours, minutes and seconds,
whereas the time left to the next appointment is shown in hours and
minutes only. When you read the clock in hours and minutes (discarding
the seconds), you are mentally rounding down to the nearest minute. To
agree with that reading, the time left (in seconds) should be
(programmatically) rounded up to the nearest minute for display.
In that way the time left is counted down whenever the minute "hand" of
the clock "ticks", and reaches zero when the clock reaches the time of
the next appointment, not one minute before. Also, the clock (in hours
and minutes) and the time left always add up to the time of the next
appointment.

Recurring appointments do not show up in the notification bar as next
appointment. This was partly corrected by 2084f35 (Fix notification of
recurrent appointments, 2017-02-09) and 5aa7a09 (Fix another error in
the notification code, 2017-02-11).
The search function recur_apoint_starts_before() had a wrong second
argument, but is really of no use: the start time of a recurring
appointment is the start time of the very first occurrence (in the
past). A comparison against the item in the notify_app structure tells
nothing of the start time of the current day; at most it eliminates some
future recurring appointments. The function can be dropped, and the
entire recurring appointment list looked through.
The proper start time is found in the main search loop (and called
real_recur_start_time) and must be compared against the item in the
notify_app structure.
But because recur_apoint_find_occurrence() is limited to a particular
day (second argument), two searches are necessary to cover 24 hours.

The configuration settings for calendar view (monthly/weekly) and todo
view (hide/show completed) used to be saved automatically on calcurse
exit, with values taken from the current interactive settings. They
could not be set explicitly in the configuration menues. Configuration
settings are no longer saved on program exit, but on exit from the
configuration menu. This means that the saved values are those that were
current when the configuration menu was entered. To change a saved
value, you must set the view as desired and then enter/exit the

- accepts date, date-time or time
The updated parse_datetimearg() function has been extended to report
