+% \maketitle
+%
+% \begin{abstract}
+% \noindent
+% \TeX\ and \LaTeX\ provide few facilities for dates by
+% default, though many packages have filled this gap.
+% |texdate| fills it, as well, with a pure \TeX-primitive
+% implementation.  It can print dates, advance them by
+% numbers of days, weeks, or months, determine the weekday
+% automatically, and print them in (mostly) arbitrary
+% format.  It can also print calendars (monthly and yearly)
+% automatically, and can be easily localized for non-English
+% languages.
+% \end{abstract}

+%
+% \section{Introduction:  The State of the \TeX}
+% \label{sect:intro}
+%
+% \TeX\ by default contains very little facilities for
+% dealing with dates, and \LaTeX\ follows suit.  As far as
+% primitives go, \TeX\ just offers the counters |\day|,
+% |\month|, and |\year|, which give the current values of
+% those units of time; e.g., |\the\year-\the\month-\the\day|
+% will yield ``\the\year-\the\month-\the\day'' (which is the
+% date on which this document was compiled).  \LaTeX\ also
+% has |\today|, which will produce the current date in the
+% default American style:  ``\today''.  But that's
+% really about all there is.
+%
+% Many packages have attempted to fill up this gap, some
+% with excellent success; |datetime2| certain deserves
+% special mention here, particularly as it goes beyond what
+% |texdate| offers, given that |texdate| contains no
+% facilities for \emph{times} at all.  |texdate| tries to fill the gap,
+% as well; but it does it using only \TeX-primitives, in the
+% hope that the solution will be (a) pretty fast, (b)
+% pretty portable, and (c) not requiring the loading of
+% massive packages, only a fraction of the capabilities of
+% which will actually be used.
+%
+% For comparison, |datetime2| uses |pgfcalendar|, which of
+% course requires |pgf|, which is a huge package.  Our
+% modern computers make loading such packages often a
+% negligible overhead; but with large and complex documents,
+% it's not always trivial.  Also, it's an enjoyable
+% challenge to write a usable package in \TeX\ for something
+% for which \TeX\ was not designed; and some of us enjoy
+% \emph{just knowing} that we're using a lean package, even
+% it makes little practical difference.
+%
+% This document is numbered in \emph{dozenal}, or base
+% twelve; numbering proceeds 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, \x,
+% \e, 10, 11, 12\xelip  It uses the |dozenal| \LaTeX\
+% package to do this.  For more information, see
+% \url{http://www.dozenal.org}.
+%
+% \section{Printing and Setting the Date}
+% \label{sect:basic}
+%
+% |texdate| works with an \emph{internal date}, which is the
+% current setting of all the date variables.  When
+% initiated, the internal date is 1 January of the current
+% year.  We can print that date with
+% \DescribeMacro{\printdate}|\printdate|:
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \printdate
+% \end{Example}
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% We can easily set the internal date to the current date by
+% running the macro \DescribeMacro{\initcurrdate}|\initcurrdate|:
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initcurrdate
+% \printdate
+% \end{Example}
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% (This is the current date at the time this document was
+% compiled.)
+%
+% You can also easily \emph{set} the internal date, by
+% running the \DescribeMacro{\initdate}|\initdate| macro:
+%
+% \begin{quote}
+% \cmd{\initdate} \marg{year} \marg{month} \marg{day-of-month}
+% \end{quote}
+%
+% The elements of the date must be supplied to |\initdate|
+% in that order, or |texdate| will become confused.  It's
+% obvious why; what should |texdate| do if the month is
+% entered as |2019|?
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initdate{2019}{6}{24}
+% \printdate
+% \end{Example}
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% While internally dates are kept as zero-indexed, these
+% dates are received by |\initdate| as one-indexed; that is,
+% |24| will mean the twenty-fourth, not the twenty-fifth,
+% because we count starting at 1 rather than 0.
+%
+%
+% \section{Date Formats}
+% \label{sect:dateforms}
+%
+% The date format we've seen so far is the default, which is
+% designed primarily to demonstrate several of the possible
+% variables that can be in a date format.  Naturally, you'll
+% want to change it; and it can be changed, almost
+% arbitrarily, simply by redefining a command, or by using
+% one of several presets.
+%
+% \subsection{Preset Formats}
+% \label{sub:presetforms}
+%
+% |texdate| provides a number of preset formats that can be
+% easily selected without having to design a format string
+% (for which see Section \ref{sub:customforms}, on page
+% \pageref{sub:customforms}).
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\printfdate\{ISO\}}|\printfdate{ISO}|
+% will print the current date in the default
+% ISO 8601 format, which is \emph{|yyyymmdd|}.  In
+% |texdate|'s formatting strings, this is |Ymd|; you'll
+% learn more about these in Section \ref{sub:customforms}.
+% There is also the ``ISO extended'' form, |Y-m-d|.
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initdate{2019}{6}{24}
+% \printfdate{ISO}
+%
+% \printfdate{ISOext}
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% For Americans fond of our curious customary format, you
+% can use
+% \DescribeMacro{\printfdate\{american\}}|\printfdate{american}|;
+% in |texdate| format strings, this is |B\ d, Y|.  There is
+% also
+% \DescribeMacro{\printfdate\{shamerican\}}|\printfdate{shamerican}|,
+% which is the abbreviated form, using slashes rather than
+% hyphens.
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initdate{2019}{6}{24}
+% \printfdate{american}
+%
+% \printfdate{shamerican}
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% The British also have their own ways of writing dates,
+% which correspond largely to the way the American military
+% writes them (which are consequently sometimes called
+% ``military dates,'' in the same way that twenty-four-hour
+% time readings are sometimes called ``military time'').
+% These are
+% \DescribeMacro{\printfdate\{british\}}|\printfdate{british}|
+% and 
+% \DescribeMacro{\printfdate\{shbritish\}}|\printfdate{shbritish}|,
+% along with alternate form 
+% \DescribeMacro{\printfdate\{shbritishdots\}}|\printfdate{shbritishdots}|,
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initdate{2019}{6}{24}
+% \printfdate{british}
+%
+% \printfdate{shbritish}
+%
+% \printfdate{shbritishdots}
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% This is enough to cover the standards of most places in
+% the world.  However, if you want something different, you
+% can easily create it with format strings.
+%
+% \subsection{Custom Date Formats}
+% \label{sub:customforms}
+%
+% All the custom formats described in Section
+% \ref{sub:presetforms} and printed with |\printfdate| are
+% created using the same general mechanism described in this
+% section.  We will begin by discussing a way to generically
+% change the presentation of all dates called with the basic
+% |\printdate|, then move on to creating custom date formats
+% that can be printed by name with |\printfdate|.
+%
+% The macro \DescribeMacro{\setdateformat}|\setdateformat|
+% holds the formatting string for the date.  It's not
+% \emph{completely} arbitrary, because none of the
+% characters used to produce specific parts of the date can
+% be used in the string itself; however, it's pretty
+% flexible despite that limitation.
+%
+% The default date format string, quite unsuitable for real
+% work, includes most of the possible control characters,
+% and is |A{ }(a),\ B\ (b){ }d,\ Y|.  Note that spaces
+% have to be preserved by either \emph{bracing} them or
+% \emph{escaping} them; that is, to put a space in your
+% format string, use either ``|\ |'' or ``|{ }|''.
+%
+% Table \ref{tab:lets} on page \pageref{tab:lets} shows
+% the control characters, an
+% explanation of their meaning, and an example of each.
+% They assume the date 4 June 2019, selected by
+% |\initdate{2019}{6}{4}|.
+% \initdate{2019}{6}{4}
+%
+% \begin{table}[htp]
+% \centering
+% \begin{tabular}{lp{3in}l}
+% \toprule
+% \itshape Let. & \itshape Result & \itshape Ex. \\
+% \midrule
+% d & Numeric day of the month; 0-padded to two digits if
+%		necessary & \printfdate{d} \\
+% e & Numeric day of the month; space-padded to two spaces
+%		if necessary & \printfdate{e} \\
+% B & Full name of the month & \printfdate{B} \\
+% b & Abbreviated name of the month & \printfdate{b} \\
+% h & Abbreviated name of the month; same as |b| & \printfdate{h} \\
+% m & Number of month, with January as 1; 0-padded to two
+%		digits if necessary & \printfdate{m} \\
+% A & Full name of the weekday & \printfdate{A} \\
+% a & Abbreviated name of the weekday & \printfdate{a} \\
+% w & Numeric value of weekday, with Sunday as 0 & \printfdate{w} \\
+% u & ISO numeric value of weekday, with Monday as 1 and
+%		Sunday as 7 & \printfdate{u} \\
+% Y & Number of the current year & \printfdate{Y} \\
+% j & Numeric day of the year, starting on a constant count
+%		from 1 Jan; 0-padded to three digits if necessary & \printfdate{j} \\
+% C & Century; essentially, the first two digits of the year &
+%		\printfdate{C} \\
+% y & The year, in only two digits & \printfdate{y} \\
+% U & Week number of the year, starting at 0, with the week
+%		starting on Sunday; 0-padded to two digits if
+%		necessary & \printfdate{U} \\
+% V & ISO week number of the year, starting at 1, with the week
+%		starting on Monday; 0-padded to two digits if
+%		necessary & \printfdate{V} \\
+% W & Week number of the year, starting at 0, with the week
+%		starting on Monday; 0-padded to two digits if necesary &
+%		\printfdate{W} \\
+% \bottomrule
+% \end{tabular}
+% \caption{Control codes for date formats}
+% \label{tab:lets}
+% \end{table}
+%
+% For folks not familiar with the \emph{control characters}
+% concept, the essential idea is that you format some
+% information with a certain ``string,'' called the ``format
+% string.''  The format string contains some characters
+% which are meaningless as far as formatting goes, and are
+% passed through unchanged; and some characters which will
+% be replaced with certain information.  In other words,
+% assume that we have a format string consisting of the
+% following characters:  |a b c d e|.  |c| is a control
+% character, and represents the information ``zzz''; the other
+% characters are not control characters.
+%
+% \begin{quote}
+% |a b c d e| $\rightarrow$ a b zzz d e
+% \end{quote}
+%
+% Anyone who has used GNU
+% |date| or BSD |date| will recognize these control
+% characters, though of course in those programs a |%|
+% character would be necessary, as well.  |texdate|
+% duplicates the behavior of these programs as closely as
+% my \TeX-pertise allows.
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initcurrdate
+% \advancebyweeks{6}
+% \def\setdateformat{d\ B\ Y}
+% |d\ B\ Y|:  \printdate\par
+% \def\setdateformat{Y-m-d}
+% |Y-m-d|:  \printdate\par
+% \def\setdateformat{a,\ d\ b\ Y}
+% |a,\ d\ b\ Y|:  \printdate\par
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% We can meddle with this however we like, except that these
+% control characters (the ones that turn into elements of
+% the date) cannot be included literally.
+%
+% You can also define \emph{named date formats}:
+% \DescribeMacro{\nameddateformat}
+%
+% \begin{quote}
+% \cmd{\nameddateformat} \marg{name} \marg{format-string}
+% \end{quote}
+%
+% Perhaps I want a peculiar date format, with the month,
+% followed by the year, followed by the day of the month,
+% followed by the day of the year in parentheses.  My format
+% string should be |m-Y-d\ (j)|.  I'll then want to use the
+% \DescribeMacro{\printfdate}|\printfdate| command with its single
+% argument, which is the name of the date format I want to
+% use.
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initcurrdate
+% \nameddateformat{weird}{m-Y-d\ (j)}
+% \printfdate{weird}\par
+% \printdate
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% It's worth nothing that all of the control characters also
+% have a formatted print string that can be called by name.
+% So one could duplicate the above |weird| date format the
+% hard way, by using these each individually:
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initcurrdate
+% \printfdate{m}-\printfdate{Y}-\printfdate{d} (\printfdate{j})
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% These seems a bit convoluted, but perhaps you want to wrap
+% it in a macro?
+%
+% \subsection{Number Format}
+% \label{sub:numforms}
+%
+% Any command which will work on a \TeX\ count register can
+% be inserted into the
+% \DescribeMacro{\texdatenumformat}|\texdatenumformat|
+% command, which will be applied to all the numbers which
+% |texdate| outputs.  For example, if you are using the
+% |dozenal| package:
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \def\texdatenumformat#1{\dozens{#1}}
+% \initdate{2018}{12}{25}
+% \printfdate{ISOext}
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+%
+% \section{Manipulating Dates}
+% \label{sect:manipdate}
+%
+% |texdate| goes well beyond merely printing and setting
+% dates; you can manipulate them in many ways.  The original
+% purpose of the package was to allow \LaTeX\ to print
+% calendar sheets and things of that nature without
+% resorting to an external program, or loading some enormous
+% package, so it needed the ability to move forward and
+% backward by given increments.  So we have that.
+%
+% \subsection{Moving Dates Forward and Backward}
+% \label{sub:movedate}
+%
+% You can advance the date by a certain number of days,
+% weeks, or months.  The macros are named, unsurprisingly,
+% \DescribeMacro{\advancebydays}|\advancebydays|,
+% \DescribeMacro{\advancebyweeks}|\advancebyweeks|, and
+% \DescribeMacro{\advancebymonths}|\advancebymonths|, each
+% of which takes one argument, which is the number of that
+% unit you wish to advance the date by.  The corresponding
+% commands \DescribeMacro{\regressbydays}|\regressbydays|,
+% \DescribeMacro{\regressbyweeks}|\regressbyweeks|, and
+% \DescribeMacro{\regressbymonths}|\regressbymonths| also
+% exist.
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initcurrdate
+% Current date:  \printdate\par
+% \advancebydays{8}
+% 8 days later:  \printdate\par
+% \advancebyweeks{4}
+% 4 weeks later:  \printdate\par
+% \advancebymonths{4}
+% 4 months later:  \printdate\par
+% \regressbydays{14}
+% 14 days earlier:  \printdate\par
+% \regressbyweeks{8}
+% 8 weeks earlier:  \printdate\par
+% \regressbymonths{2}
+% 2 months earlier:  \printdate\par
+% \end{Example}
+% \nobreak\medskip\nobreak
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% Note that |\advancebymonths| does not validate the date,
+% so it's possible that you'll end up with something
+% impossible, such as 31 September.  It's best to watch the
+% results of this one carefully.
+%
+% Both the |\advanceby|s and the |\regressby|s should be
+% given positive numbers; negative numbers will just confuse
+% them.
+%
+% \subsection{Saving and Restoring Dates}
+% \label{sub:savedate}
+%
+% Sometimes you may wish to save a date, change the internal
+% date, use that internal date for a while, then restore the
+% old date.  |texdate| makes it possible to save and use as
+% many dates as you want (or, at any rate, as many as \TeX\
+% will tolerate).
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\savedate}|\savedate| takes a single
+% argument, the \emph{name} you'd like to give your saved
+% date.  This can be anything that \TeX\ allows in a control
+% sequence; best to stick with normal, seven-bit ASCII
+% letters.  You then access the saved date with
+% \DescribeMacro{\restoredate}|\restoredate|, which takes
+% that same name as its argument.
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \initcurrdate
+% \printdate\par
+% \savedate{current}
+% \advancebyweeks{12}
+% \printdate\par
+% \savedate{advanced}
+% \restoredate{current}
+% \printdate\par
+% \advancebydays{3}
+% \printdate\par
+% \restoredate{advanced}
+% \printdate\par
+% \restoredate{current}
+% \printdate\par
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% You can also retrieve your saved date directly; rather
+% than calling |\restoredate|, you can call
+% |\savedate<name>|, without the angle brackets.  That's the
+% name that |texdate| uses internally, and calls with
+% |\restoredate| to get your information back.
+%
+%
+% \section{Convenience Macros}
+% \label{sect:convmacs}
+%
+% |texdate| offers a few macros for tasks which its author
+% anticipates will likely be common.  For example, to
+% produce a small monthly calendar, consider using the
+% |\texdcal| macro, which takes two arguments:  the year and
+% the month of the calendar you're seeking to create:
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \begin{center}
+% \begin{tabular}{cc}
+% \texdcal{2018}{5} &
+% \texdcal{2018}{6} \\
+% \texdcal{2018}{8} &
+% \texdcal{2018}{9} \\
+% \end{tabular}
+% \end{center}
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% Notice that |\texdcal| does the right thing when there a
+% month goes into an extra week:  it simply prints another
+% week.  It also correctly refuses to print the days of a
+% week which do not belong to the requested month.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\texdcalyear}|\texdcalyear| will produce
+% one of these calendars for an entire year, in three
+% columns; the year chosen is the argument given to the
+% macro.  Because the margins of the \LaTeX\ standard
+% classes are much too large (or rather, the paper sizes are
+% much too large; the text blocks are rather nicely
+% proportioned), |\texdcalyear| prints this calendar in a
+% small size, with very small space between columns.
+%
+% \bigskip
+% \hrule
+% \begin{Example}
+% \footnotesize%
+% \begin{center}
+% \texdcalyear{2018}
+% \end{center}
+% \end{Example}
+% \medskip
+% \hrule
+% \bigskip
+%
+% Obviously, it uses |\texdcal| internally to do this, so
+% the definition of |\texdcalyear| is much simpler than that
+% of |\texdcal|.
+%
+% Just as obviously, these yearly calendars
+% could easily be formatted in many different ways; so many,
+% in fact, that attempting to make the macros flexible
+% enough for meaningful customization would be prohibitively
+% difficult.  More fruitful results can be obtained by
+% reading the macros themselves (they are truly not very
+% difficult) and customizing them oneself.
+%
+% \section{Language Specification}
+% \label{sect:lang}
+%
+% |texdate| does understand \LaTeX\ language specifications,
+% using Heiko Oberdiek's |iflang| package, which should work
+% for both |babel| and |polyglossia|.  Built-in are
+% only English (the default), Spanish, French, and German.
+% However, it's pretty simple to customize the
+% month name and weekday name strings by defining a few
+% commands, so if you need a different language, you just
+% need to redefine a few strings.
+%
+% Each string begins with the prefix |\texd@|, then the
+% English ordinal string for the order in which it comes,
+% with January being the first month and Sunday being the
+% first weekday; e.g., |\texd@first|.  Then comes |sh| if
+% it's an abbreviation; e.g., |\texd@firstsh|.  Finally
+% comes the string |mon| if it's a month, or |name| if
+% it's a weekday name.  Below is the complete list, for
+% German.
+%
+% \begin{quote}
+% |\makeatletter|\\
+% |\def\texd@firstmon{Januar}|\\
