    [% date.format %]
    ...

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The C<Date> plugin provides an easy way to generate formatted time and date
strings by delegating to the C<POSIX> C<strftime()> routine.

The plugin can be loaded via the familiar USE directive.

    [% USE date %]

This creates a plugin object with the default name of 'C<date>'.  An alternate
name can be specified as such:

    [% USE myname = date %]

The plugin provides the C<format()> method which accepts a time value, a
format string and a locale name.  All of these parameters are optional
with the current system time, default format ('C<%H:%M:%S %d-%b-%Y>') and
current locale being used respectively, if undefined.  Default values
for the time, format and/or locale may be specified as named parameters 
in the C<USE> directive.

    [% USE date(format = '%a %d-%b-%Y', locale = 'fr_FR') %]

When called without any parameters, the C<format()> method returns a string
representing the current system time, formatted by C<strftime()> according 
to the default format and for the default locale (which may not be the
current one, if locale is set in the C<USE> directive).

    [% date.format %]

The plugin allows a time/date to be specified as seconds since the epoch,
as is returned by C<time()>.

    File last modified: [% date.format(filemod_time) %]

The time/date can also be specified as a string of the form C<h:m:s d/m/y>
or C<y/m/d h:m:s>.  Any of the characters : / - or space may be used to
delimit fields.

    [% USE day = date(format => '%A', locale => 'en_GB') %]
    [% day.format('4:20:00 9-13-2000') %]  

Output:

    Tuesday

A format string can also be passed to the C<format()> method, and a locale
specification may follow that.

    [% date.format(filemod, '%d-%b-%Y') %]
    [% date.format(filemod, '%d-%b-%Y', 'en_GB') %]

A fourth parameter allows you to force output in GMT, in the case of 
seconds-since-the-epoch input:

    [% date.format(filemod, '%d-%b-%Y', 'en_GB', 1) %]

Note that in this case, if the local time is not GMT, then also specifying
'C<%Z>' (time zone) in the format parameter will lead to an extremely 
misleading result.

Any or all of these parameters may be named.  Positional parameters
should always be in the order C<($time, $format, $locale)>.

    [% date.format(format => '%H:%M:%S') %]
    [% date.format(time => filemod, format => '%H:%M:%S') %]
    [% date.format(mytime, format => '%H:%M:%S') %]
    [% date.format(mytime, format => '%H:%M:%S', locale => 'fr_FR') %]
    [% date.format(mytime, format => '%H:%M:%S', gmt => 1) %]
    ...etc...

The C<now()> method returns the current system time in seconds since the 
epoch.  

    [% date.format(date.now, '%A') %]

The C<calc()> method can be used to create an interface to the C<Date::Calc>
module (if installed on your system).

    [% calc = date.calc %]
    [% calc.Monday_of_Week(22, 2001).join('/') %]

The C<manip()> method can be used to create an interface to the C<Date::Manip>
module (if installed on your system).

    [% manip = date.manip %]
    [% manip.UnixDate("Noon Yesterday","%Y %b %d %H:%M") %]
