DESCRIPTION
Cal
prints a calendar.
Month
is either a number from 1 to 12,
a lower case month name,
or a lower case three-letter prefix of a month name.
Year
can be between 1
and 9999.
If either
month
or
year
is omitted, the current month or year is used.
If only one argument is given, and it is a number larger than 12,
a calendar for all twelve months of the given year is produced;
otherwise a calendar for just one month is printed. The calendar
produced follows the Calendar (New Style) Act of 1750.
-s
N
makes
cal
display
N,
specified as a number between 1 to 7 (Monday to Sunday), as the
first day of the week. The default is Sunday.
Try
cal sep 1752

BUGS
The year is always considered to start in January even though this
is historically naive.
Beware that
cal 90
refers to the early Christian era,
not the 20th century.
