@vindex calendar-holiday-marker
@vindex diary-entry-marker
  The variable @code{calendar-holiday-marker} specifies how to mark a
date as being a holiday.  Its value may be a character to insert next to
the date, or a face name to use for displaying the date.  Likewise, the
variable @code{diary-entry-marker} specifies how to mark a date that has
diary entries.  The calendar creates faces named @code{holiday-face} and
@code{diary-face} for these purposes; those symbols are the default
values of these variables.

@vindex calendar-load-hook
  The variable @code{calendar-load-hook} is a normal hook run when the
calendar package is first loaded (before actually starting to display
the calendar).
