duck_punching

I have been using Geoffrey Grosenbach’s calendar_helper plugin and needed a few changes. I am also using git for projects now and finding the submodule a workable strategy for plugins. So I imported it into git using git-svn and created a new project on GitHub. I plan to do some refactoring to make it a little cleaner but mostly will just tweak for my own usage.

My first changes were to remove the requirement for the year and month to be passed in as options. These now default to the current month and year if not included in the options hash.

I have also added the :month_name_text option to override the default text for the month name. The month name is basically the calendar header so this makes it possible to include the year in the header for clarity.

Now that I have forked it, I removed the gem spec files as it will not be published as a gem as that would confuse everyone and just isn’t the done thing.

Feel free to use and fork of course, these are just my preferences and maybe more to come. Thanks of course go to the original authors and contributors of the plugin.
