In version .8 and I believe .9 but not version 1.0 of NeXTOS, the calendar
that was displayed by the Preferences app had tiny iconic symbols over
certain dates to denote holidays (like a heart on Feb 14). What happened to
this "feature"? Were the holidays that were shown only those that fell on
fixed dates (e.g. Xmas) or were they computed based on algorithms (e.g.
2nd tuesday in month, etc.). On the same topic, does anyone know of a program
which will compute the date for holidays such as Easter or Jewish holidays?
