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.)

       -3, --three
	      Display three months spanning the date.

       -s, --sunday
	      Display Sunday as the first day of the week.

       -m, --monday
	      Display Monday as the first day of the week.

       -j, --julian
	      Display Julian dates (days one-based, numbered from January 1).

       -y, --year
	      Display a calendar for the whole year.

       --color [when]
	      Colorize output.	The when can be never, auto, or always.	 Never
	      will  turn  off  colorizing in all situations.  Auto is default,
	      and it will make colorizing to be in use if output  is  done  to
	      terminal.	 Always will allow colors to be outputed when cal out‐
	      puts to pipe, or is called from a script.

       -V, --version
	      Display version information and exit.

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

PARAMETERS
       A single parameter specifies the year 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/.
