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 positive
       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/lib/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.
