Write the text "holiday-easter-etc" into some buffer in GNU Emacs. It's = also possible to copy it from somewhere, for example my Email, and yank = into some buffer. Then position the text cursor somewhere in this = function's name. Now you can type C-h f and press RET in mini-buffer. = The *Help* which has opened contains a hyper-link to holidays.el. Follow = it! Can you see the calculations? Can you also see how to possibly add = Easter Monday to the list of (christian) holidays? Besides this, Ed Rheingold, the original author of the GNU Emacs = calendar functions, has written articles about this and other calendars. = Maybe they're still available on the internet. -- Greetings Pete Increase the size of your bike by at least *five* inches!
