Hello,

Yes I fully agree that there is room to improve it.

For fitting to the paper dimension, the simplest would be to have the La= TeX code derive box sizes (\cellwidth...) from \textheight & \textwidth= , and derive in turn \textheight & \textwidth from \paperheight & \paperwid= th and the wanted margin. All of this can be done in the LaTeX code.

Another area of improvement would be to replace \usepackage[latin1]{inpu= tenc} by the adquate encoding when holidays are used, or week days name are= not English.

And my 2 cents:

Not being the maintainer either, but sometimes a user, I'm for it.
However, I feel that cal-tex requires a general overhaul.  The LaTeX file it produces doesn't look really great (neither the source nor the
output).  And it doesn't fit on A4.

I could try to do that overhaul.  For starters, enable A4 calendars; also, why not use TikZ to draw the boxes (at least as an option)?  WDY= T?
