          CAL(1)               INTERACTIVE UNIX System               CAL(1)



          NAME
               cal - print calendar

          SYNOPSIS
               cal [ [ month ] year ]

          DESCRIPTION
               The cal command 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.  Year can be between 1 and 9999.
               The month is a number between 1 and 12.  The calendar pro-
               duced is that for England and the United States.

          EXAMPLES
               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

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

               Beware that ``cal 88'' refers to the early Christian era,
               not the 20th century.
