ccal for Debian
----------------------
Note that even though it is originally named cal, in Debian
it's 'ccal' in order to avoid conflicting with bsdmaintuils
package.
There was once a package named color-cal in Debian that provided
this program but I have been unable to find it (maitained, my
dpkg --status at home tells me, by Patrick J. Edwards <pje120@mail.usask.ca>)
Since I really like this piece of software, and helps me avoid
public embarassment when I forget birthdays I have been looking
quite a lot until I traced it to the sources again.
However, there is still work to be done to put this software up-to-date.
It is not yet fully internationalised, and will only print the days/months
in english. The only localisation that has been done is the use of
locale to setup the start week day. Help in this area would be appreciated.
Note: This package provide an alternative to the 'cal' program
(it's provided by ncal in bsdutils) but since it's not fully compatible
with it I do not intent to make it possible to be handled through
/etc/alternatives (yet)
