This is close, but not quite right, since it doesn't allow you
to specify more than one such passed-through argument.

The original program also had a bug in the "-R" mode; it would
rotate the calendar completely off the page.  I fixed this and
also made -R scale the image so as to fit on an 8.5x11 sheet of
paper.

Finally, I wrote a short manual page.  The new source and the manual
page are appended to the end of this message, in "shar" format.

X# NAME:
X#	pscal
X#
X# SYNOPSIS:
X#	pscal [-Pprinter] [other printer flags] month year
X#
X# DESCRIPTION:
X#	`Pscal' is a PostScript program to print calendars.
X#
X#	The file $HOME/.holiday is read and used to print short messages
X#	on specified days.  The .holiday file should consist of lines of
X#	the form 
X#		month:day:message string
X#	Messages should be 20 characters or less, with no more than 6
X#	messages per day.  No spaces should appear from the beginning
X#	of a line until after the second colon.
X#	Month and day should be numbers in the obvious ranges.
X#	12/89 - The holiday checking has been loosened up in that the
X#	following takes place:
X#		1. The Shell Variable EFILE is used preferentially
X#		2. Then the file Events in the current directory is used
X#		3. Finally the $HOME/.holiday file is used.
X#	The whole process can be turned off by setting EFILE=/dev/null.
X#
X# OPTIONS:
X#	Any argument whose first character is '-' is passed on to lpr.
X#	The shell variables BANNER, LFOOT, CFOOT, and RFOOT become a
X#	top centered banner, and left, centered, or right justified
X#	footers respectively.  As in:
X#
X#		BANNER="Schedule 1" CFOOT=Preliminary pscal 4 90

X# HISTORY:
X#	@Original From: patwood@unirot.UUCP (Patrick Wood)
X#	@Shell stuff added 3/9/87 by King Ables
X#	@Made pretty by tjt 1988
X#	@Holiday and printer flag passing hacks added Dec 1988 
X#	@ by smann@june.cs.washington.edu 
X#	@Used the better looking version with 5 rows of days rather than 6
X#	@ hacked together with holiday and banner/footnotes added
X#	@ by Joe (No Relation) Wood, 12/89, jlw@lzga.ATT.COM
X#	@Fixed "-R" (didn't work at all; now it at least works on 8.5x11)
X#	@Also fixed handling of unrecognized arguments
X#	@ by Jeff Mogul, 1/90, mogul@decwrl.dec.com
X#
X# BUGS:
X#	`Pscal' doesn't work for months before 1753 (weird stuff happened
X#	in September, 1752).
X#
X#	A better format for the dates of holidays would be nice.
X#	An escape to allow holiday messages to be raw PostScript would
X#	also be nice.
X#	The holiday messages should be handled more intelligently (ie,
X#	the messages should be clipped to the day).
X#
X
X# 
X# PostScript program to print calendars.
X# Doesn't deal well with September 1752 or before.

pscal \- print calendar page on a PostScript printer
X.SH SYNTAX
X.B pscal
X[ -Pprinter ]
X[ -R ] [ -r ] [ -t ]
X[ month [ year ] ]
X.SH DESCRIPTION
X.I Pscal
prints (on a PostScript printer)
a calendar for the specified month and year.  The year, if omitted, defaults
to the current year.  If both month and year are omitted, the current
month is printed.
X.I Year
can be between 1753
and 9999.
The
X.I month
is a number between 1 and 12.
X.PP
This version of the
X.I pscal
program will print short messages on user-chosen dates, as specified
in your
X.I $HOME/.holiday
file.  The .holiday file should consist of lines of
the form 
X.nf
X.RS
month:day:message string
X.RE
X.fi
Messages should be 20 characters or less, with no more than 6
messages per day.  No spaces should appear from the beginning
of a line until after the second colon.
Month and day should be numbers in the obvious ranges.
XFor example,
X.nf
X.RS
X12:16:Beethoven's Birthday
X.RE
X.fi
X.SH OPTIONS
X.IP "\-P\fIprinter\fR" 1i
The printer may be specified with the usual \-P\fIprinter\fR syntax.
X.IP "\-r" 1i
The calendar page is printed in ``landscape'' orientation (the default).
X.IP "\-R" 1i
The calendar page is printed in ``portrait'' orientation; this
yields a slightly smaller image and may be more suitable for
embedding into other documents.
X.IP "\-t" 1i
Causes the PostScript to be sent to the standard output, rather
than to the printer.  This is useful if you wish to save the
output in a file, or if you want to use options with the
X.IR lpr (1)
command.
X.IP "\-F\fIfont\fR" 1i
Sets the font family for the title text (the month and year).
X.IP "\-f\fIfont\fR" 1i
Sets the font family for the day-of-month numbers.
X.PP
Other arguments starting with `\-' are passed through to
X.IR lpr (1).
