Hello all,

I'm often building out calendar lists and so using variants of date plugins 
from others - mostly add-time from Jed / inmysocks. I find that on a case 
by case basis I need the date in a different format. Sometimes the "native" 
YYYY0MM0DD, usually ISO YYYY-0MM-0DD, sometimes just the MMDD part (my 
current need) etc. Ideally the <$view format="date" template="..."> widget 
would allow me to fed it a macro as input, but it appears to only pull from 
a tiddler field.

Currently I'm just copy-pasting the add-time.js over and over with 
different names for each format I need, and struggling through modifying 
the javascript (I'm not a programmer) each time, but thought somebody could 
either tell me that there's an easy way to feed a value from a macro into 
<$view> widget without writing it to a tiddler first, or have an enhanced 
version of add-time.js that allowed a "template" string parameter to format 
the output (I would consider this ideal). I've been trying to understand 
javascript date formatting hoping that natively I could pass it something 
like "YYYY-MM-DD" but that doesn't appear to be the case. 

Any ideas?
