NAME
    cal - displays a calendar

SYNOPSIS
    cal [-jy] [[month] year]

DESCRIPTION
    Cal displays a simple calendar.  If arguments are not specified,
    the current month is displayed. The options are as follows:

	-j  Display julian dates (days one-based, numbered from January 1).

	-y  Display a calendar for the current year.

    A single parameter specifies the year (1 - 9999) to be displayed;
    note the year must be fully specified:
	
	    cal 89
	
    will 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.

    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.
	
HISTORY
    Command appeared in Version 6 AT&T UNIX.  Cal is derived from software
    contributed to Berkeley by Kim Letkeman.  Bug fixes and port to
    SAS/C 6.51 for Amiga by Ron Charlton.
