In as much as the different rule sets can put the same Gregorian date
three (or more) days apart on the Islamic Calender, the rule set that is
used can have very exoteric consequences.

Now to figure out which of the API lists would be the most appropriate.
[I'll probably ask on the macro list, simply because I'll need to write
a macro to calculate the Islamic date using the other rule sets.]

That will work if the code is commented, and it specifies which of the
various rule sets are used. If that isn't met, I'll have to walk thru
the code line by line. [I might do that anyway, simply to figure out the
easiest way to calculate both Samaritan and Karaite Jewish calender
dates. Another two macros to write. ]

When you figure out the answer, please let me know as well. I've yet
to need this, but I see where I might need it in the future. Thanks.
