Scal is a very simple CLI-based Persian calendar that displays the current Shamsi month calendar and highlights the current date. The following is a screenshot:
In addition to calendar view, Scal also supports a simple mode that just prints the current Persian date; so, it can be used with other CLI apps such as grep:
$ scal --simple
Output:
1398-11-07
When using the --simple flag, it's also possible to customize the output format using --format option:
$ scal --simple --format "%d/%02d/%02d"
Output:
1398/11/07
Since SCAL is written in pure C, so it can be compiled for almost any target. Please use the following to get started:
$ git clone [email protected]:ramezanpour/scal.git
$ make
$ make install
