CAL(1)
NAME
cal − print calendar
USAGE
cal [ [ month ] year ]
DESCRIPTION
Cal prints a calendar for a specified month, year, or both. The range for year is 1-9999; the range for month is 1-12. Both year and month must be Arabic numbers.
EXAMPLES
To print a calendar for the entire year of 1985, type the following:
cal 1985
To print a calendar for December, 1985 only, use this command:
cal 12 1985
CAUTIONS
Note that specifying cal 85 prints a calendar for the year 85, not 1984.
Cal always assumes the year to start in January, even though this is historically naive.
