       @quad Also there's https://github.com/leahneukirchen/wcal which I find to have a better output than most cal(1) implementations. Also funnily, cal(1) is in POSIX but the output is undefined, I wonder why it got there…https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/utilities/cal.html

       @quad Yeah, at least here I did because well, GUIs are ephemeral pieces of software.In fact I think the last time I used a graphical calendar was back in Gnome 2 era.

       @quad Also OP reminds me that I'd recommend terminally unix people to browse in the shell utilities section of POSIX.2024 version of it: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/

       @lanodan @quad even a GTK calendar has it's place though, https://yad-guide.ingk.se/calendar/yad-calendar.html on a status bar click comes in handy too from time to time

       @eal @quad Here in France I know internally it's effectively in weeks but annoyingly they tend to instead give rough estimates in days which is pretty hard to remember…

       @quad @eal Meanwhile here you sometimes have to remember if it's a month with 28 days or 31 and… I just never do and feel like I shouldn't have to, feels kind of like old imperial units with weird stuff to remember vs. metric where you just shift numbers around.

       @lanodan @quad @eal careful with week numbers! some programs just say "week number" without specifying whether it's the US one or the EU/ISO one. Sometimes it's locale-specific, sometimes it's hard-coded.In gnome-shell, I had to look at the JS code to figure out how the number was grokked. (always ISO, even on an en_US locale IIRC)

       @quad at some point I got tired of gui calendars and started using cal instead since it's just faster a lot of the time I do find it somewhat lacking when I want to check something that crosses year boundaries I suppose.

       @quad it is because they want to check if the server's date is correct? when why would they check the phone's calendar? on the other hand I cannot think of a PC setup where there is no bar anywhere with a calendar. unless if we want to check if the month has 31 days or not I guess.

       @quad no I was thinking if I'm connected to a server with SSH there is still a bar somewhere I can look at the dates from, but then I remembered it is also possible to connect to server without SSH directly to a monitor.
