DDATE(1) Emperor Norton Utilities DDATE(1)

NAME

ddate - 그레고리오력(현 태양력)을 Discordian(?)력으로 변환

SYNOPSIS

ddate [+format] [date]

DESCRIPTION

ddate 명령은 Discordian력으로 날짜를 보여준다.
우리나라 실정에 전혀 맞지 않는(?) 명령으로 판단되어 우리말로 옮기지는 않는다. 굳이 필요하면 아래글 직접 읽기를. - 옮긴이 말.

If called with no arguments, ddate will get the current system date, convert this to the Discordian date format and print this on the standard output. Alternatively, a Gregorian date may be specified on the command line, in the form of a numerical day, month and year.

If a format string is specified, the Discordian date will be printed in a format specified by the string. This mechanism works similarly to the format string mechanism of date(1), only almost completely differently. The fields are:

%A
Full name of the day of the week (i.e., Sweetmorn)
%a
Abbreviated name of the day of the week (i.e., SM)
%B
Full name of the season (i.e., Chaos)
%b
Abbreviated name of the season (i.e., Chs)
%d
Ordinal number of day in season (i.e., 23)
%e
Cardinal number of day in season (i.e., 23rd)
%H
Name of current Holyday, if any
%N
Magic code to prevent rest of format from being printed unless today is a Holyday.
%n
Newline
%t
Tab
%X
Number of days remaining until X-Day. (Not valid if the SubGenius options are not compiled in.)
%{
%}
Used to enclose the part of the string which is to be replaced with the words "St. Tib's Day" if the current day is St. Tib's Day.
%.
Try it and see.

BUGS

ddate(1) will produce undefined behaviour if asked to produce the date for St. Tib's day and its format string does not contain the St. Tib's Day delimiters %{ and %}.
