Description
Gcal is a program for calculating and printing calendars. Gcal displays hybrid and proleptic Julian and Gregorian calendar sheets, respectively for one month, three months, or a whole year. It also displays eternal holiday lists for many countries around the globe, and features a very powerful creation of fixed date liststhat can be used for reminding purposes. Gcal can calculate various astronomical data and times of the Sun and the Moon for pleasure at any location, precisely enough for most civil purposes. Gcal supports some other calendar systems, for example, the Chinese and Japanese calendars, the Hebrew calendar, and the civil Islamic calendar, too.
Changes
3.01 2002-01-05
A huge number of changes from the previous installed version, including many, many more countries and more extensive holiday lists, lots of new command line options, and a richer resource file syntax. For a full list, see /usr/pubsw/doc/Data/gcal/NEWS.
Usage
To get a calendar with US/California holidays highlighted, try: gcal -q US_CA To get the holiday list as well, try: gcal -n -q US_CA jan (or whatever month you want a calendar for). You may want to set the environment variable GCAL_OPT to "-q US_CA" to always get US/California holidays highlighted.
