Announcement of Date::MTile 1.0:
My former Date::Calendar is now Date::MTile. You can download it from
http://personal.bgsu.edu/~norton/download/Date-MTile-1.0.tar.gz
I'd be very interested to hear your comments.
The attached pieces of my POD will give you an idea of what
Date::MTile is all about.

Date::MTile - Tiling calendars with month-blocks
This package uses Steffen Beyer's Date::Calc package to tile calendars
with month-blocks.
************
Month-blocks
The month_block function returns a 224 character string:
8 "lines" of 27 characters plus a line feed
This function is used for tiling a calendar with months.
************
One-year calendar
The year_calendar function returns the calendar for a given year, four
quarters down by three months across.
************
Two-year calendar
The twoyear_calendar function returns a two calendar starting with a
given year. The first year is above the second in mode 1 or 2. The years
are side by side in modes 3, 4, and 5. The twoyear_calendar function has
been included primarily to illustrate various ways by which a calendar
can be tiled with month-blocks.
************
A four-year calendar
A four-year calendar can be tiled with two two-year calendars. This
177 x 65 four-calendar prints nicely from our Mac as a 67% landscape
(ProFont-9).
use Date::MTile qw(:all);
set_language('eng');
$begin_monday = 0;
my $calendar = twoyear_calendar(2000, 5);
$calendar .= '-' x 177 . "\n";
$calendar .= twoyear_calendar(2002, 5);
print $calendar;
