NAME
cal - print calendar
SYNOPSIS
cal [ [ month ] year ]
DESCRIPTION
cal prints a calendar for the specified year. If a month is
also specified, a calendar just for that month is printed.
If neither is specified, a calendar for the present month is
printed. The month is a number between 1 and 12. The year
can be between 1 and 9999. The calendar produced is that
for England and the United States.
NOTES
An unusual calendar is printed for September 1752. That is
the month 11 days were skipped to make up for lack of leap
year adjustments. To see this calendar, type: cal 9 1752
The command cal 83 refers to the year 83, not 1983. The
year is always considered to start in January even though
this is historically naive.
