In the recent posting of Pcal I found a couple problems. First if I used
"pcal | lpr ..." then I would get nothing out. Seems the value of month
it was being given was four billion something. Also if I specified the
month on the command line (ie. "pcal -m 1 | lpr ...") then I would get the
whole year and not just one month.
So here are the fixes to both those problems, AND, some extra features.
I have added three new command line options and they are as follows:
-r
This will cause the output to come out in portrait
mode instead of landscape.
-t <titlefont name>
This option can be used to change the font the title
is printed in. (ie. pcal -t Times-Roman)
-d <dayfont name>
This option is the same as -t except that the font used
to print the day numbers is changed.
I don't have nroff and know nothing about it so I haven't changed the
man page to go with this. In other words, you just read the man pages
changes :-)
So here is a patch for pcal.c. The patch utility will eat it easily.
If you don't have patch there isn't much to change and should be no
problem to do by hand, after all, I did :-)
Enjoy!
