Though the OP was referring to the scosh calendar, on the subject of
/usr/bin/calendar - anyone who uses it much should check out 'remind':

http://www.roaringpenguin.com/products/remind/index.php

It's more /usr/bin/calendar like than scosh-calendar like in that it isn't a
group calendar. But it's vastly more capable than /usr/bin/calenar - you can
select dates for reminders (or other events) by many algorithmic means. It
also includes time-of-day events with popups, a GUI calendar, and other
niceties. And it's chock full of Hebrew calendar support.

I've been using it for 12 years.
