Hello,
I would like to suggest a minor addition to the |EXAMPLES| section of
the |date| manual to improve clarity for new users.
While the manual covers many complex formats, it lacks a simple,
single-specifier example that demonstrates the required |*+*| syntax. I
propose adding the following entry:
*Example:*
Display the current date in MM/DD/YY format:
|date +%D|
This provides a clear, immediate reference for the most common numeric
date representation.
Thank you for your time and for your incredible work on the GNU coreutils.
Best regards,
Dmitri Seletski
