I discovered a webpage where a Linux user posted his previous/current/next month calendar for conky. I have been able to set the colors and the font to my preference, the issue is the numerals are completely out of format and do not at all line up with the days to make clean vertical columns of text.
Can anyone tell me if:
1) The calendar can be formatted
2) Whats the easiest way to eliminate the previous & next calendars? I tried just removing the lines for displaying them in .conf but this made the current month calendar disappear as well.
Here's the files:
conky.conf
