Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2024 09:42:00 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Zcup6MUNhFhkS3LB@alice> (raw)
That reference has been there since first edition Unix:
For years when several calendars were in vogue in
different countries, the calendar of England (and
therefore her colonies) is printed. P.S. try cal of 1752.
The 1752 is the key here. That is the year that England (and
her colonies) switched to the Gregorian calendar. France did
it in 1582, Russia in 1918, etc. That note is telling you which
calendar the cal(1) command uses. It's important.
Why get rid of it?
Cheers,
Anthony
