pcal: calendar.

pcal is a simple calendar generation program. By default, it reads the ``calendar" file in your home directory and displays those items listed for the specified month on the calendar it generates. The output - sent to the standard output - is in PostScript, so the quality is very good. Usage is:

pcal [-e -f file ] [-p] [-M] [MM YY]
where
M: print phases of the moon. p: output in portrait mode instead of landscape. MM: month in numerical format. YY: year in numerical format. e: do not use my ``calendar" file, f file: use file instead of ``calendar".

An example of pcal invoked with the command:

pcal -p -M 01 93 | lpr
is shown in figure 14.2.

A french version, pcal_f, is also available. The month names and weekday names have been translated.
