   I've discovered an 620 byte "interactive" calendar:   
      
   'Copyright (C) Lawrence E. Boothby 1998'   
      
   which comes wrapped in a compression method of his own   
   devising   
      
   It starts at the current calendar month, and permits   
   CsrL -1 month   
   CsrR +1 month   
   CsrU -1 year   
   CsrD +1 year   
   PgUp -100 years   
   PgDn +100 years   
   (escape)   
   drawn at the top right of a standard colour text screen in   
   blue on green.   
      
   I've reverse-engineered it and inserted my own leap year code   
   to get a 398 byte (no compression, no copyright) program.   
   Still room for cutting some, I think.   
      
   So there's potential to add e.g. startday adjust code inside   
   the 512 limit.   
      
      
      
      
      
   --   
   Bah, and indeed, Humbug.
