That is a very cool solution.  Thanks.
(Guess I really do need to learn perl, after all.)

Just one small edit to change the format because rempr needs: Jan 2003

0 3 22 * *      /usr/local/bin/rempr `perl -MPOSIX -e 'print strftime "\%b \%Y", localtime(time + 31*86_400)'`

By adding 31 days worth of seconds, I can run the command nearly any
day and get next month's calendar.
