The simple format yyyy-mm-dd is a lot more easy to read though. The TW-based macros I wrote after some suggestions from Mat* seem to be date agnostic. I can run this:
40 days from 1860-12-1 : <<daysfrom 1860 12 1 40>> > and get this: 40 days from 1860-12-1 : 1861-1-10 ** > Since I don't have my calendar from 1860/61 hanging around any more (the cat ate it), someone else will have to verify that it's correct. * Or someone ** Wikipedia tells me GE was written first 1860, but I suppose it was brushed up later?
