NAME
       cal - display a calendar

SYNOPSIS
       cal [options] [[[day] month] year]

DESCRIPTION
       cal  displays  a	 simple	 calendar.  If no arguments are specified, the
       current month is displayed.

OPTIONS
       -1, --one
	      Display single month output.  (This is the default.)

	      Display prev/current/next month output.

       -s, --sunday

	      Display version information and exit.

       -h, --help
	      Display help screen and exit.

PARAMETERS
       A single parameter specifies the year (1 - 9999) to be displayed;  note
       the  year  must	be fully specified: cal 89 will not display a calendar
       for 1989.

       Two parameters denote the month (1 - 12) and year.

       Three parameters denote the day (1-31), month and  year,	 and  the  day
       will  be	 highlighted if the calendar is displayed on a terminal. If no
       parameters are specified, the current month's calendar is displayed.

       A year starts on Jan 1. The first day of the week is determined by  the
       locale.

       The  Gregorian  Reformation  is assumed to have occurred in 1752 on the
       3rd of September. By this time, most countries had recognized the  ref‐
       ormation	 (although a few did not recognize it until the early 1900's).
       Ten days following that date were eliminated by the reformation, so the
       calendar for that month is a bit unusual.

HISTORY
       A cal command appeared in Version 6 AT&T UNIX.

AVAILABILITY
       The cal command is part of the util-linux package and is available from
       ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
