=head1 TITLE

on-date - Display what happened on the given Shire date

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 on-date 3 25   # Rethe 25
 on-date 3      # Midyear's day
 on-date -help
 on-date -version

=head1 OPTIONS

=head2 -accented

If this Boolean option is asserted the accented forms of proper nouns
(if any) will be used.

If you assert this option you will need to run this script with C<perl
-C eg/on-date>. It would be nice if the script could do

 binmode STDOUT, ':encoding(utf-8)'

if C<-accented> was asserted, but unfortunately that was not invented
until Perl 5.8, and this package is targeted for Perls back to 5.6.2.

=head2 -help

This option displays the documentation for this script. The script then
exits.

=head2 -version

This option displays the version of this script. The script then exits.

=head1 DETAILS

This Perl script displays the given date in the Shire calendar, and what
(if anything) happened in and around the War of the Ring on that date.
The date is specified as two command line arguments. Normal dates are
specified by month and day numbers. Holidays are specified by holiday
number.
