OK, Please go to my anonymous ftp site (mooseriver.com). In
/pub/FreeBSD/Calendar
You will find calander.judaic.README and calendar.judaic.tgz. Within
calendar.judaic.tgz you will find 2 files calendar.judaic and
calendar.judaic.diff. Ignore The file calendar.judaic.diff. calendar.judaic
is the complete calendar for the CE year 2001. This file is a drop in
replacement for the existing calendar.judaic which can be found in
/usr/src/usr.bin/calendar/calendars. This file should work for 3.X and
4.X. As I don't run a 5.x box I can't be sure but it should work unless
calendar has changed between 4.x and 5.x.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Josef
