README for calxxxx-yyyy, 2018/01/01, v20.18a TABLE OF CONTENTS ================= 1 Introduction 2 Download 3 Installation 4 Additional Packages 5 Author/Maintainer 6 Bug Reports 7 Known Problems 1 INTRODUCTION ============== To print a calendar for some given years, use the \textsf{calxxxx-yyyy.tex} file. LaTeXe it, type in the year to start with (for example 2018), the year to end with (for example 2035), and the calendars for those years are produced. It is possible to print the calendars in different languages. Currently English (with week running from Sunday to Saturday), and Danish and German (with week running from Monday to Sunday) are supported, but other languages can be added. (When you did a translation, please send an e-mail with it to Martin DOT Muench AT Uni-Bonn DOT de, so that it might be included in calxxxx-yyyy.tex, thanks!)

Thus you can directly unpack the ZIP file inside a TDS tree. See https://www.ctan.org/TDS-guidelines for an explanation of TDS. Example: cd /...somewhere.../texmf unzip /...downloadpath.../calxxxx-yyyy.tds.zip Do not forget to refresh the file name database of this TDS tree. Example: texhash /...somewhere.../texmf . Manual installation ------------------- a) Download the calxxxx-yyyy files from CTAN. If necessary, unpack them. b) Install the file `calxxxx-yyyy.tex' in your TDS tree: cp calxxxx-yyyy.tex TDS:tex/latex/calxxxx-yyyy/ Replace `TDS:' by the prefix of your TDS tree (texmf directory). c) Create the documentation, if necessary, e.g. pdflatex README.tex d) Update the databases if necessary, e.g. for teTeX: mktexlsr .../texmf e) Copy the documentation files to "TDS:doc/latex/calxxxx-yyyy/": README, README.tex, README.pdf (and e.g. cal2018-2035_DE.pdf, cal2018-2035_DK.pdf, and cal2018-2035_EN.pdf). 4 ADDITIONAL PACKAGES ===================== calxxxx-yyyy itself loads these other packages: babel, geometry, and arry, which again load other packages (see the result of the \listfiles command in the log-file of the example). 5 AUTHOR/MAINTAINER ===================== H.-Martin Münch 6 BUG REPORTS ============== A bug report should contain: * Comprehensive problem description. This includes error or warning messages. * \errorcontextlines=\maxdimen can be added in the TeX code to get more information in TeX error messages. * Minimal test file that shows the problem, but does not contain any unnecessary packages and code. * Used drivers/programs. * Version information about used packages and programs. * If you are using LaTeX, then add "\listfiles". Then a list of version information is printed at the end of the LaTeX run. * Please no other files than the minimal test file. The other files .log, .dvi, .ps, .pdf are seldom necessary, so send them only on request. * Please .zip or .tar.gz your file(s) before sending them! Bug address ----------- Bug reports can be send to the maintainer: H.-Martin Münch 7 KNOWN PROBLEMS ================= * If you request too many years (more than about 141) at once, (La)TeX will run out of memory (unless you increase that).
