Bug Description
Hi,
I'm using BSD's "calendar" to print dates of interest at each opening of a terminal (in fact, of a shell...).
As you can guess, I need the number of entries to be as low as possible in order not to pollute my screen.
For the moment, I use "calendar.french", but there are too many entries there. I'd like to use only the files "/usr/share/
I've tried with multiple "-f" options, but then "calendar" defaults to its basic behaviour: using "calendar.all".
My first remark is the following: I think there's a bug here since it does not warn the user that there is an error in parsing the command line.
My second remark is : does anyone knows an option/trick I could use to open multiple calendar files? I've tried the following, but it does not work:
calendar -A 3 -B 3 <(cat /usr/share/
Thanks
By the way, I don't know why, but now I have an additional line break after each printed entry. How can I remove that ?
