Mucking about with date algorithms.

The following macros will generate a calendar as a string object union for a
specified month/year (yucky example attached):

#macro MakeTOU(MyStr, YTrans) // modify this according to taste
  text {
    ttf             // font type (only TrueType format for now)
    "crystal.ttf",  // Microsoft Windows-format TrueType font file name
    MyStr,      // the string to create
    1,              // the extrusion depth
    0               // inter-character spacing
    translate y*YTrans
  }
#end

#macro MakeCal(Year, Month) // main date algo. macro
  #local YTrans = 0;
  #local YChange = 1.5;
  #local TempStr = "";
  #local Months = array[12]{
    "January","Febuary","March","April",
    "May","June","July","August",
    "September","October","November","December"
  };
  #local Days = array[7]{"Su","Mo","Tu","We","Th","Fr","Sa"};
  #local Day = 1;
  #local RealYear = Year;
  #if (Month < 3)
    #local Month = Month + 12;
    #local Year=Year-1;
  #end
  #local JulDay = Day + int((153 * Month - 457) / 5) + 365 * Year + floor(Year /
4) -
    floor(Year / 100) + floor(Year / 400) + 1721118.5;
  MakeTOU(concat(Months[Month-1], " ",str(RealYear,0,0)), YTrans)

  #local YTrans = YTrans - YChange;

  #local Temp = 0;
  #while(Temp<7)
    #local TempStr=concat(TempStr,Days[Temp], " ")
    #local Temp = Temp+1;
  #end
  MakeTOU(TempStr, YTrans)
  #local TempStr= "";

  #local YTrans = YTrans - YChange;

  #local JulDay = JulDay - 1;
  #local LastDay = -1;
  #local CalDay = 0;
  #local First = 1;
  #while(LastDay < CalDay)

    #local G = Z - 0.25;
    #local A = floor(G / 36524.25);
    #local B = A - floor(A / 4);
    #local CalYear = floor((B+G) / 365.25);
    #local C = B + Z - floor(365.25 * CalYear);
    #local CalMonth = int((5 * C + 456) / 153);
    #local CalDay = C - int((153 * CalMonth - 457) / 5) + R;
    #if (CalMonth > 12)
       #local CalYear = CalYear + 1;
       #local CalMonth = CalMonth - 12;
    #end
    #if(First | CalDay > 1)
      #local First = 0;
      #if(CalDay = 1)
        #local Temp = 0;
        #local TempStr = "";
        #while (Temp < ModDInt)

        MakeTOU(TempStr, YTrans)
        #local TempStr = "";
        #local YTrans = YTrans - YChange;
      #end
    #end

Moving :
  MakeTOU(concat(Months[Month-1], " ",str(RealYear,0,0)), YTrans)
to the line above:
  #if (Month < 3)
prevents an error for the months jan and feb.

OT: Do you have to earn your free day by the work of the week or do you get
it for free and therefore are able to work the next few days?

Already dealt with - RealYear is a copy of Year prior to the jan-mar thing -
However, your suggestion save needing RealYear in the first place... Ta.

I've got a bit of enhancement and optomising to do, and will post an update
later.

I'll parametise that in the next version (as well as height-offset and

    Do you have the getdate.bat system to make povray read the system clock
and generate today's calendar?

No, the scene uses pov lang to implement algorithms I found on a website (or
did you mean in general?)
