<para>
FIXME: (check)To place a visual marker on a particular day, use
gtk_calendar_mark_day() and to remove the marker, gtk_calendar_unmark_day().
Alternative, all marks can be cleared with gtk_calendar_clear_marks().
</para>
<para>
The way in which the calendar itself is displayed can be altered using
gtk_calendar_display_options().

The selected date can be retrieved from a #GtkCalendar using
gtk_calendar_get_date().
</para>
<para>

gtk_calendar_thaw().
