A LaTeX based calendar using TikZ

For usage see the example files »tikz-kalender-example1.tex«, »tikz-kalender-example2.tex«, and »*.events«. See also my Git repository. The Code is inspired by this document and has the »Creative Commons attribution license (CC-BY-SA)«.

The class »tikz-kalender« requires the package »tikz« and the tkiz libraries »calc« and »calendar«.
