thanks for the hint. the -b switch definitely comes in handy when `cal` isn't
available, because one is running ncal from /usr/src/usr.bin.

will the -b switch disappear once you ncal/cal works properly with
highlighting?

what confused me a little is the output of something like `ncal 10 2011`.
judging from ncal(1) i guessed the output to be October of 2011, yet the
output is all months from October 2011 to September 2012.

i tried `ncal -m 10 2011` instead and the output was just the same. so what's
the right way to see the entry for lets say October 2011?

another issue i'm having is the -m switch in combination with f and p. judging
from ncal(1) `ncal -m 3p` should output February 2010 and `ncal -m 3f` April
2010. however instead of printing the previous and next month the previous and
next year gets printed.

running `ncal -m 10f` on the other hand behaves even weirder because it prints
the same as `ncal -m 10`.
