Can you please be sure to mention in the documentation somewhere also
about the Shaahanshaahi calendar and how to convert and what's its
official name was and abbreviations, if any? That will be nice if that
system also makes its way into online conversion tools. It's a real
problem in places like Academic libraries when someone is, for example
told to catalog a book and there is something like "2536" which appears to
be a date, yet there is often no abbreviation or calendar designation and
the poor cataloger has to run around looking for an expert and waste a lot
of time.
Well, Hamed, you take care of this too, right? :). BTW, the rule is simply that 2535 maps to 1355 IIRC, or was it 1350? So a simple shift is enough.
Add 1180 to "Iranian" calendar".
