The Gregorian calendar reform was introduced in 1582, but its adoption continued up to 1923. By default \fBcal\fP uses the adoption date of 3 Sept 1752. From that date forward the Gregorian calendar is displayed; previous dates use the Julian calendar system. 11 days were removed at the time of adoption to bring the calendar in sync with solar events. So Sept 1752 has a mix of Julian and Gregorian dates by which the 2nd is followed by the 14th (the 3rd through the 13th are absent). +.sp +Optionally, either the proleptic Gregorian calendar or the Julian calendar may be used exclusively.
