'Cal' prints a Gregorian calendar for any month or any year
of the user's choice.
When invoked without arguments, a calendar for the current
month of the current year is printed in the following format:

In addition, either the name of a month, or a year, or both
may be specified on the command line to select the calendar to
be printed.
If a month name is given without a year, a calendar
for that month in the current year is produced.
If a year is given without the name of a month, then a calendar
for the entire year is printed.
.sp
'Cal' will accept any unique initial
abbreviation for the name of a month.
Also, if a year between 0 and 99 is specified, 'cal' assumes the
20th century.
