CAL(1)                  COMMAND REFERENCE                  CAL(1)



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.
     The month is a number between 1 and 12.  Year can be between
     1 and 9999.  The calendar produced is a Julian calendar.

     Try September 1752.

EXAMPLES
     The following example prints the calendar for 1983:

          cal 1983

     This example prints the calendar for the current month:

          cal `date +%m` 19`date +%y`

RETURN VALUE
     [NO_ERRS]      Command completed without error.

     [USAGE]        Incorrect command line syntax. Execution
                    terminated.

     [NP_ERR]       An error occurred that was not a system
                    error.  Execution terminated.

CAVEATS
     The year is always considered to start in January even
     though this is historically naive.

     Beware that `cal 78' refers to the early Christian era, not
     the 20th century.
