The ncal command itself does not have built-in functionality to display holidays. However, you can use the -H option to highlight specific holidays if you have a file that contains holiday dates in a format that ncal can recognize.
For example, you can create a file with holiday dates and then use the -H option to display them. Here's how you can do it:
-
Create a file named
holidays.txtwith the following format (one holiday per line):1 1 New Year's Day 7 4 Independence Day 12 25 Christmas Day -
Use the
ncalcommand with the-Hoption:ncal -H holidays.txt
This will display the calendar with the specified holidays highlighted. Note that you may need to adjust the format of the holiday file based on your specific requirements.
