|
.Nm Cal
|
||

displays a simple calendar.
|
||
|

|
||
|

|
||
|
The options are as follows:
|
||
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
||
|
.It Fl j
|
||
|
Display julian dates (days one-based, numbered from January 1).
|
||
|
.It Fl y

||
|
Display a calendar for the current year.
|
||
|
.El
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
A single parameter specifies the year (1 - 9999) to be displayed;
|
||
|
note the year must be fully specified:
|
||
|
.Dq Li cal 89
|
||
|
will
|
||
|
.Em not
|
||
|
display a calendar for 1989.
|
||
|
Two parameters denote the month (1 - 12) and year.
|
||
|
If no parameters are specified, the current month's calendar is
|
||
|
displayed.
|
||
|
.Pp
|
||
|
A year starts on Jan 1.

The Gregorian Reformation is assumed to have occurred in 1752 on the 3rd
|
||
|
of September.
|
||
|
By this time, most countries had recognized the reformation (although a
|
||
|
few did not recognize it until the early 1900's.)
|
||
|
Ten days following that date were eliminated by the reformation, so the
|
||
|
calendar for that month is a bit unusual.
