The Calendar command provides access to Boxer's popup calendar:
When first summoned, the Calendar displays the current month and year and highlights the current date. The arrow buttons at the top of the display can be used to move forward or backward, by months or by years. The button with the curved arrow can be used to return the display to the current month and year.
Clicking on any date within the display highlights that date. The Insert button can be used to insert a text string describing the highlighted date at the text cursor location. The Short Format and Long Format options control the format that will be used. The short and long formats used to display the date are in accordance with the regional settings for date display as defined on your computer. To change these settings, see Start Menu | Settings | Control Panel | Regional Settings | Date.
The Calendar recognizes various characters to speed movement from date to date:
Y = first day of year R = last day of year M = first day of month H = last day of month T = Today
The following keys are also recognized:
Space = +1 month - = -1 day + = +1 day Shift+Left = -1 month Shift+Right = +1 month Ctrl+Left = -1 year Ctrl+Right = +1 year
The day on which a calendar week starts can be configured on the Configure | Preferences | Other options page. The option is titled: Calendar week starts on.
If you prefer that the Calendar always remain on top of other windows, the Stay on top option can be used. The Calendar is a non-modalwindow, which allows it to remain on-screen after focus has been returned to another editing window.
