To what index do you refer?

month days are currently 1 based.

_consistency_ would be nice, C be dammed.

I propose "consistency" as a "goal".  

(Consistent with what?  With itself.)

(Not in the tcl everything is a command, or python everything is a who
knows what way..  but wherever reasonable.)

And the manual will reflect _everything_.  If it's not documented, it
might as well not exist.
