Option to suppress empty days #43

I find it challenging that all the views offered by this gadget fill the screen 
with notifications of 'no events'.

A very valuable behaviour would be to allow the user to show only days which 
have scheduled events. In my case, I have dragged the gadget to full height and 
it's still only showing four single-line events, along with about 20 lines of 
day names and the phrase 'no events'.

One of the advantages of a digital calendar is not to have to print/look at 
blank pages, so this behaviour replicates the worst of paper calendars for no 
reason. 

I can't see any advantage to the current default, especially given empty days 
are not even visually differentiated in color or highlighted.

I can't find any Google Calendar gadget which is better, though. They all seem 
to use the same codebase.
