Cool. The diff looks great... but it lacks tests.
Yes, I wanted to finish the recutils part first.
I’ve been thinking about that, and I don’t like that we’d have to use
two record sets. It’d be necessary to post-process the output nearly
every time. Then why bother? We can already filter

I think it’s reasonable to have a first milestone without recutils
output.

I’d prefer clearer case analysis as shown above.
OK, what do you think about this diff? If everything is fine, I’ll make
it output generations in the recutils format.
(Is it necessary to mention that ‘maybe-comma-separated-integers’ accepts
something like ‘1,2,3,’ or ‘1,,,2’. Or should I
By definition submatches 1 and 2 exist when RES is true.
Thus, I’d remove ‘safe-match:substring-number’ and do:
(match (string-match ^([0-9]+)\\.\\.([0-9]+)$ str)
(#f #f)
(matches
(let ((start (number-string (match:substring matches 1)))

Probably this can reduce to a big ‘cond’, which would be even more
readable:
(cond ((maybe-integer)

list)
((string-match ^([0-9]+)\\.\\.([0-9]+)$ str)
=
(lambda (match)
...))
How can I subtract 22 days from (current-time) using SRFI-19?
Note that the above example suggests that ‘string-duration’ returns a
time object with of type ‘time-duration’ (thus independent of the
current time.)
Ah, OK. But we’ll have to subtract from (current-time) later anyway,
right?
I’m asking because if we do that, ‘--list-generations’ may just as well
print out *all* the generation records. Users who want to select only
less than one-month old generations can do that with ‘recsel’, and we
don’t have anything more to do.
WDYT?
I see recutils as an advanced option

The attached procedure will be invoked when either option is called with
an argument.
Nice.
BTW, what did you think of the idea of using recutils format as the
output? (Either as the sole output format, or otherwise as a secondary
format.)

I like the idea. It’s always better to use a documented format,
especially when it comes with a mode for Emacs. And don’t forget that

I’m trying to handle the “last-month” and the “first-month” cases. I’d
like to use ‘profile-numbers’* to construct an alist of generations and
their creation dates.
What can I use to get the creation date of a file? I can’t find
