#bsdutils

I really like the simplicity of the calendar program from #bsdutils (4.4BSD-Lite). However it took me a long time to realize: It doesn't support dates that don't repeat! You can't give it a year ... at least not in my version (which is the one you get when on Pop! doing sudo apt install calendar.)

@farooqkz @osnews @ubuntu *nodds in agreement*

Add the day of #FSF & #RMS becoming meaningless and people being repulsed by #Stallmanism the same way they should be of Maoism, whilst #Linux got rid of the #GNUtils in lieu of better ones.

Whether that'll be #BSDutils or even @landley 's #Toybox is a different question.

I doubt the latter ones but it's not as if I do my part with OS/1337 to make it at least an option for #FrugalComputing.
