Package name	Version	Required

Gawk	5.0.1	yes

Example

See example.txt for an example printout. Note that the example was made to test a leap year.

Configuration

Edit the ./configrc file based on your needs. Variable names are self-explanatory.

You can also edit the date formats in the following script functions:

get_full_string()
print_day()

Running

$ ./monthly_attendace_paper.sh ./configrc

Printing

$ ./monthly_attendace_paper.sh ./configrc | lpr

Warning

This script heavily depends on tabs for formatting. What you see in a printout may be different to what you see on the screen; what you see on an editor after executing:

$ ./monthly_attendace_paper.sh ./configrc > printout.txt

might be different than:

$ ./monthly_attendace_paper.sh ./configrc

This script does not check any input nor output for errors. That's up to you.
