From the command line in Terminal, type the following:

cal -y

or type:

cal -y [year, as in 2002]

This gives you a nice column-oriented calendar of the entire year. Very nice for printing out, hanging on the wall and scribbling notes around it.

I use one called Desktop Calendar 0.47a. Got it off of versiontracker.com. It's great :-))

It puts a transparent calendar on your desktop (very configurable as far as the colors, etc. go), and very unobtrusive. It looks like it is part of your desktop pic.

Best of all it's freeware and you can get the source if you want.

Good luck.

wclock

maybe you'd like wclock (not world clock). It takes the place of the mac clock, but when you click it, a calender slides down. Very cool, and doesn't take up extra desktop space. And it's free at versiontracker http://www.versiontracker.com/morein...id=7766&db=mac
