There is a very old - but really useful - software for DOS by
Bernd Kratz of the Univ. of Kentucky which calculates, displays,
lists etc. dates, saints, etc. for a wide range of calendars,
such as Moslem, Jewish, Icelandic, etc. It has saints' days for
the medieval period (these thing were changing considerably during
the ages) from several different breviaries, Latin names of days,
and a lot more.

I do not remember where I picked it (probably UofKentucky) so I have
just placed it on my Web site for you (and anyone else) to download:

select "Res Novae" and then the last item.

There may be a newer version of it.

Best regards,

Rafal
