When outputting a full year (and possibly in other cases where more than one "row" of months is output) the fixed number of display lines per month looks more pleasing to the eye, I think. But in the single "row" case it would probably be fine to suppress the empty lines. It would seem unlikely that anything depends on the fixed number of output lines. What do you think? https://www.netbsd.org/~kim/cal-suppress-empty-output-lines.diff
