Oh, And how do I add leading zeroes to a number? I can't find the format attribute that does this. I guess I could output it using format=datetime:%H

Kind of counter-intuitive to use datetime to get an integer. Also, I can't get an arbitrary number of leading zeroes, though it will work for this case.

I'm writing a method to patch this, since one can't know a priori whether there is a leading hour, if that hour is one or two digits, of if there is no leading hour, whether the minutes are one or two digits.

This is ideally suited to a RegEx, but Witango only supplies an interface to the Posix matching routines, but here we want to modify text. So instead I have to build logic to parse the possibilities.

How did leading hours get overlooked for so many years?

Yeah,
this is the only way i see around it

<TIMETOSECS TIME="27:30"> results in InvalidTime! because it is expecting three numbers, separated by colons, such as 00:27:30.

I would perfer time to be treated just like any other number, where leading zeroes are assumed.
