Module: date

This module shows information about the current date.

NOTE: This module supports most—but not all—of the formatting sequences that can be found in man date. For example, to display the time in 12-hour format, you can use either %I:%M or %l:%M for a 0-padded hour or a space-padded hour respectively.

Formatting sequences such as %-I (12-hour time without padding) will not work. Use a custom script with the date command as a workaround.

; See "https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/manip/put_time" for details on how to format the date string
; NOTE: if you want to use syntax tags here you need to use %%{...}
date = %Y-%m-%d%

; Optional time format
