[Solved] dm:<date> question

Post by w64bit »

If you add anything after <date> in dm:<date>
like dm:past2dxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
the xxxxxxxxxxxxxx is ignored.
Is this by design?

Yes, the xxxxxxxxxxxxxx is ignored.

Everything will try to be as forgiving as possible.
In this specific case, the d will match days.

dm:past2dxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
is the same as
dm:past2days

I have on my TODO list to support the following syntax:
dm:2days12hours

Currently, Everything ignores the 12hours part.
