 A translator that uses a circular buffer to store log files. The translated node only contains the last N (mega,kilo)bytes.
 
+## <a name="Birthday"> Birthday </a>
+
+A translator that provides an interface into the birthday program.
+
+You can cat your calendar, eg. bd/calendar/today bd/calendar/this-week or bd/calendar/this-month.
+
+And you could write new events into files located in bd/events/DATE/event-name.
+
+DATE is of the format the birthday expects DD/MM/YYYY.
+
+The contents of the file are any or none of the following birthday options: ann (An anniversary), bd (A birthday), ev (Some other event), wN (Warn N days in advance of date), toDATE (Event lasts until this DATE), forDAYS (Event runs for DAYS).
+
+You can optionally just edit the bd/birthdays file if you want to edit the configuration file by hand. It might make sense to write changes from bd/birthdays into ~/.birthdays.
