The Forecast view on the iPad version of OmniFocus is generally found very useful, often requested for the Mac version, and doubtless planned or in progress for Mac OF 2.

In the meanwhile, as a stop-gap, here are the first rough drafts of shell scripts which can be used in NerdTool or GeekTool to get 7 day Forecast listings on the Mac Desktop, even when OmniFocus and iCal are not running.

There are three draft shell scripts:

1. Due in the next seven days (by day of week)
2. Calendared in the next seven days (by day of week, from iCal)
3. Starting in the next seven days (by day of week)

Note that in NerdTool (which I personally use because it is a bit less resource-hungry) you should set the encoding to UTF-8.
