      NAME
           calendar - reminder service

      SYNTAX
           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''.  On weekends,
           ``tomorrow'' extends through Monday.

           When an argument is present, calendar does its job for every
           user who has a file calendar in their login directory and
           sends them any positive results by mail(1).  Normally, this
           is done daily by ROS facilities.

      FILES
           calendar
           /usr/lib/calprog    to figure out today's and tomorrow's
           dates
           /etc/passwd
           /tmp/cal*

      SEE ALSO
           mail(1).

      BUGS
           Your calendar must be public information for you to get
           reminder service.
           Calendar's extended idea of ``tomorrow'' does not account
           for holidays.
