commit 16781c58c850a25e5c417df26399074872e94a41
Author: Ettore Berardi <ett...@fastmail.com>
Commit: Ettore Berardi <ett...@fastmail.com>
Add support for a TTY-friendly Calendar marker character.
In the current implementation, days with journal entries in the calendar
are marked using only the denote-journal-calendar face, which is not visible in
terminal Emacs.
This adds a customisable variable, denote-journal-calendar-tty-marker and
updates the marking logic to insert this marker character after the date in TTY
Emacs.
This would provide a visible hint for terminal users, improving usability
and accessibility.
