Hi all, Raul's recent request for extending getdate from the dates.ijs script, got me thinking about my "wishlist" for handling dates as well as past forum discussions suggesting extensions.
I wonder if we (the J community) put our collective heads together, whether we can come up with something more generally useful than the individual efforts that I'm sure we currently all have tucked away. Some of the ideas that I've collated so far are: * extend existing verbs to handle times as well as dates * more flexible formatting of date & time string representations * time-zone conversion? I've set up a page on the wiki to act as a focus for the project: http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/RicSherlock/Extend%20Dates%20Project Any and all ideas/comments/offers of help/suggestions are solicited!!
