The format is yymmdd where any of the yy, mm, or dd may be preceded by
a '+' or '-' to indicate relative, rather than absolute periods.

So to get the previous month only, you would use this:

FROM -00-0101
TO -00-0131

This means 'from 0 years ago, 1 month ago, day 1, to 0 years ago, one
month ago, day 31.'

Analog is smart enough to know that day '31' may not exists, but to
get all other days in the month.
