I have searched google, and read through lots of library books on Unix but they are seem to lack a comprehensive installation guide for dummys like me!

GCAL(1) General Commands Manual GCAL(1)NAME
Gcal - a program for calculating and printing calendars.
SYNOPSIS
gcal [[Option...] [%Date] [@File...]] [Command]
DESCRIPTION
Gcal is a program similar the standard calendar programs BSD-`cal' and `calendar'.
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 lists that can
be used for reminding purposes. Gcal can calculate various astronomical data and times of the Sun and the Moon for at pleasure any loca-
tion, precisely enough for most civil purposes. Gcal supports some other calendar systems, for example the Chinese and Japanese calendar,
the Hebrew calendar and the civil Islamic calendar, too.
If Gcal is started without any options or commands, a calendar of the current month is displayed.
If the calendar of a definite year is wanted, the year must be fully specified,
e.g.: gcal 94
displays a year calendar of the year 94, not of the year 1994.
If two arguments are given in the command part, the first argument denotes the month and the second argument denotes the year. In case any
illegal commands are given running Gcal , the program will use internal defaults.
