Displays a calendar.

SYNTAX


       +---------+
cal ---|         |-- year --|
       +- month -+


Note:  This command does not have MBCS support.

DESCRIPTION

The cal command writes to standard output a Gregorian calendar for the
specified year or month.

The month parameter names the month for which you want the calendar.  It can be
a number between 1 and 12 (for January through December, respectively).  If you
are using a system that supports a multibyte character set, the name of the
month and the abbreviation of the day of the week are locale-specific.

The year parameter names the year for which you want the calendar.  Since the
cal command can display a calendar for any year from 1 to 9999, enter the full
year rather than just the last two digits.

EXAMPLES

  1. To display a calendar for February 1984 at your work station:

      cal 2 1984

  2. To print a calendar for 1984:

      cal 1984 | print

  3. To display a calendar for the year 84 A.D.:

      cal 84
