      4 .SH SYNOPSIS
      5 .B cal
      6 [
      7 .I month
      8 ]
      9 [
     10 .I year
     11 ]
     12 .SH DESCRIPTION
     13 .I Cal
     14 prints a calendar.
     15 .I Month
     16 is either a number from 1 to 12,
     17 a lower case month name,
     18 or a lower case three-letter prefix of a month name.
     19 .I Year
     20 can be between 1
     21 and 9999.
     22 If either
     23 .I month
     24 or
     25 .I year
     26 is omitted, the current month or year is used.
     27 If only one argument is given, and it is a number larger than 12,
     28 a calendar for all twelve months of the given year is produced;
     29 otherwise a calendar for just one month is printed.
     30 The calendar
     31 produced is that for England and her colonies.

     40 The year is always considered to start in January even though this
     41 is historically naive.

     45 refers to the early Christian era,
     46 not the 20th century.
