calendar

CALENDAR(1)						      General Commands Manual						       CALENDAR(1)

NAME

       calendar - reminder service

SYNOPSIS

       calendar [ - ]

DESCRIPTION

       Calendar consults the file `calendar' in the current directory and prints out lines that contain today's or tomorrow's date anywhere in the
       line.  Most reasonable month-day dates such as `Dec. 7,' `december 7,' `12/7,' etc., are recognized, but not `7 December'  or  `7/12'.	If
       you give the month as ``*'' with a date, i.e. ``* 1'', that day in any month will do.  On weekends `tomorrow' extends through Monday.

       When  an argument is present, calendar does its job for every user who has a file `calendar' in his login directory and sends him any posi-
       tive results by mail(1).  Normally this is done daily in the wee hours under control of cron(8).

       The file `calendar' is first run through the ``C'' preprocessor, /lib/cpp, to include any other calendar files  specified  with	the  usual
       ``#include'' syntax.  Included calendars will usually be shared by all users, maintained and documented by the local administration.

FILES

       calendar
       /usr/libexec/calendar to figure out today's and tomorrow's dates
       /etc/passwd
       /tmp/cal*
       /lib/cpp, egrep, sed, mail as subprocesses

SEE ALSO

       at(1), cron(8), mail(1)

BUGS

       Calendar's extended idea of `tomorrow' doesn't account for holidays.
