SYNOPSIS
           use Curses::UI;
           my $cui = new Curses::UI;
           my $win = $cui->add('window_id', 'Window');

           # The hard way.
           # -------------
           my $dialog = $win->add(
               'mydialog', 'Dialog::Calendar'
           );
           $dialog->modalfocus;
           $win->delete('mydialog');
           my $date = $dialog->get();

           # The easy way (see Curses::UI documentation).
           # --------------------------------------------
           $date = $cui->calendardialog();

DESCRIPTION
       Curses::UI::Dialog::Calendar is a calendar dialog.  This type of dialog
       can be used to select a date.

       See exampes/demo-widgets in the distribution for a short demo.

OPTIONS
       o   -title < TEXT >

           Set the title of the dialog window to TEXT.

       o   -date < DATE >

           Set the date to start with to DATE. If -date is not defined, today
           will be used as the startdate.

METHODS
       o   new ( OPTIONS )

       o   layout ( )

       o   draw ( BOOLEAN )

       o   focus ( )

       o   modalfocus ( )

           These are standard methods. See Curses::UI::Container for an
           explanation of these.

       o   get ( )

           This method will return the date that was selected or undef if no
           date was selected.

SPECIAL BINDINGS
       o   escape

           This will invoke the cancel button, so the calendar dialog returns
           without selecting any date.
