CALENDAR(1) CALENDAR(1)
NAME
calendar - print upcoming events
SYNOPSIS
calendar [ -dy ] [ -p days ] [ file ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Calendar reads the named files, default
/usr/$user/lib/calendar, and writes to standard output any
lines containing today's or tomorrow's date. Examples of
recognized date formats are "4/11", "April 11", "Apr 11",
"11 April", and "11 Apr". A special form may be used to
represent weekly and monthly events: "Every Tuesday" "The
third Wednesday" All comparisons are case insensitive.
If the -y flag is given, an attempt is made to match on year
too. In this case, dates of the forms listed above will be
accepted if they are followed by the current year (or last
two digits thereof) or not a year — digits not followed by
white space or non-digits.
If the -p flag is given, its argument is the number of days
ahead to match dates. This flag is not repeatable, and it
performs no special processing at the end of the week.
The -d flag enables debugging output.
On Friday and Saturday, events through Monday are printed.
To have your calendar mailed to you every day, use cron(8).
