Thus, all dates for March are given the same year as for its last day. Each month appears vertically in lower case above a column of dates, except when in pairs, in which case the later month is ALL CAPS. The column of dates underneath are those of all corresponding "Key Dates" (defined as all dates for which MonthIndex + Day is divisible by 7). Thus, the Old Style February 13th is a Key Date. A "Key Day" is the day of the week on which Key Dates occur in said span of months. Because MonthIndex + Day is divisible by 7, one may find the Key Day, as in Step A below. This Key Day is used in Steps B & C to display calendars just by sliding the row of days--by adding or deleting spaces to the left of 'su'. Copy & paste the chart into a text-editor with a monospaced font, e.g. Courier, and do as follows: A. Calculate the Key Day: For a given Date in the Old Style calendar, calculate the day on which its Key Dates occur using (YLDM/4 + Year)/7, and apply Hans' keypad mapping in Reference 2, or find the remainder of the division by 7. (YLDM = the Year on the Last Day of the Month; / = integer division) B. Display the calendar for March & November: Slide the row of days so that the Key Day rests over 28 thereby showing the calendar for the March that began the Year with Lady Day. One has as well the calendar for the following November. C. Display calendars for the other months: for any month other than March or November: slide the row of days to put the Key Day under the month to be displayed. Q. How would you modify this for the Julian or Gregorian Calendar? (There's more than one right answer.) -- REFERENCES http://www.angelfire.com/my/zelime/calendarslide.html gopher://gopherite.org/0/users/retroburrowers/TemporalRetrology/cc/jg
