«editors deposit articles into folders, one folder for each issue
«customize this script by filling in your startDate and number of days
local (startDate = date ("1/2/94")) «fill in your date here
local (countDays = 150) «number of days to generate calendar for
local (folder)

«initialize the day, month, year, etc variables
