Pcal and lcal are calendar-generation programs which produce nice-looking PostScript output.

Pcal is usually used to generate monthly-format (one month per page) calendars with optional embedded text and images to mark special events (e.g. holidays, birthdays, etc). It can also generate yearly-format (one year per page) calendars.

Lcal generates a graphical ''lunar phase'' calendar for an entire year (see below).

Both programs were previously released by Andrew W. Rogers, whose web page has disappeared.

Pcal supports the following languages:
Catalan
Czech
Danish
Dutch
English
Esperanto
Estonian
Finnish
French
German
Greek
Hungarian
Italian
Latvian
Lithuanian
Polish
Portuguese
Romanian
Russian
