By: Mick Russell Original submission: A "repeat event after every x days" would be nice so as to cater for fortnightly, 3 weekly recurring events - garden maintenance, pool cleaning etc

I am currently rewriting the code handling creation of the edit and add event windows. After that rewrite this is certainly something I could look into adding. It won't make it for 0.11, but perhaps 0.12 or 0.13

I have an .ics that I would like to import, but Day Planner does not recognize "RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=2" (i.e., bi-weekly). This is a fundamental requirement for me to use day planner.

I've opened issue #9 for this. Could you provide a test iCalendar event for this specific RRULE, as well as any messages Day Planner outputs to the terminal when you attempt to import it?

Test calendar (ics) provided here after the "....." below. When attempting to import it, day planner outputs on the command line:

DP::iCalendar: ERROR: RRULE too advanced for current parser: FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=2. Found in event 7f0100_885_3f. Report this to the developers.
