Time based options readme is misleading. #5774
Comments
Any specific suggestions for the wording? |
Change whatever I may be wrong, this is just a suggestion. |
The formatting is not manually controlled, but auto-generated. Only the text can be changed How about
|
Looks good but I would insist on being explicit about not being a range because thats what I thought all this time and just found out when I needed to change my script. Sometimes its better to explain like to a 5yo, you know many people from around the world comes here and the language is a barrier too.

Checklist
Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood
This is in the readme:
This is real life:
The readme should explain a little more what this option does exactly. By reading the actual readme, I thought
--date today-2weeks
was a range <<today and all videos until 2 weeks back in time>> its misleading. Readme should make explicit that we are not talking about ranges here. The example--date today-2weeks
is misleading since people can think its a range and not actually "video from today and a video from exactly 2 weeks back ( - 14 days backwards).Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem
