No, I do have cal, but calendar is a separate command, that reads a
calendar file in the user's home directory and spits out any dates it finds
in the file as events of the day. So if I had calendar file that had a
line like:
Meeting on 1/28/2007 at Joe's house,
when invoked, the calendar command would spit the line back out on 1/27 and
1/28, as calendar events for "tomorrow" (when invoked on 1/27) and "today"
(when invoked on 1/28).
