Excuse me, i don't understand completely the post.
Look at the output from cal 6 2014:
The code you suggested:
will print 8, but the 1st Sunday in June, 2014 is the 1st; not the 8th.
The code I suggested will print 1 in this case and should print the correct day number for the 1st Sunday no matter what day of the week the 1st day of the month is.
I am trying to configure the cal command to recognize the month names.
When you type: cal - you get the calander for the current month of the current year.
Is there a way of making the system recognize March, and Mar. So I could type:
cal March or cal mar and get the same response as cal.... (5 Replies)

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
The command cal 83 refers to the year 83, not 1983.
The year is always considered to start in January.
