CALENDAR(1)              DOMAIN/IX SYS5               CALENDAR(1)



NAME
     calendar - reminder service

USAGE
     /usr/bin/calendar [ - ]

DESCRIPTION
     Calendar provides an individual reminder service by consult-
     ing the file calendar in your log-in directory and printing
     out lines containing today's or tomorrow's date.  You must
     create the file before calendar can successfully run.

     A typical line in your calendar file may look like this:

          12/15 Departmental meeting at 3 p.m.

     Calendar recognizes most month-day entries (e.g., 12/15,
     Dec. 15, december 15), but not day-month items (e.g., 15
     December, etc.).  On weekends, ``tomorrow'' extends through
     Monday.

     When an argument is present, calendar looks in all users'
     log-in directories for a file named calendar and sends any
     positive results by mail(1).

CAUTIONS
     Your calendar must be public information for you to get rem-
     inder service.

     Calendar's idea of ``tomorrow'' does not account for holi-
     days.

FILES
     /usr/lib/calprog    to figure out today's and tomorrow's
                         dates

     /etc/passwd

     /tmp/cal*

     /usr/mail

RELATED INFORMATION
