  The code that precedes the PostScript calendar is unix cshell
commands.  It is a hack to do the following.

o	allow a command line interface to postscript.
o	allow the month and year to be taken from a command line and
	set in postscript.
o	print the file...

   Now I am sure that there is a way to do a similar hack in vms ...
but I dont know if there is a equivalent of the <<EOF
construct of sh/csh.   If you want to make the calendar remove
everything before the %! and modify the following...

/month $month def		/month month-you-want-1-12 def
/year $year def			/year year-you-want-in-19xx-form def

and then print it by hand ... what the csh code does is take your
command line args and replace $month and $year appropritly.

ps... you also could print it on a UNIX(tm) machine.
