The \fB\-p\fR option is very similar to the \fB\-s\fR option, except
that the output contains additional information for use by a back-end such as the
\fBRem2PS\fR program, which creates a PostScript calendar, and various
other back-end programs. If \fIn\fR starts with "+", then it specifies
a number of weeks rather than a number of months, and back-ends are expected
to produce weekly calendars. Note that not all back-ends support
weekly calendars; currently, only \fBrem2pdf\fR does. Specifying a weekly
calendar implicitly enables the pure JSON interchange format, similar
to \fB\-ppp\fR.
