;;; timestring.el --- Quickly access timestamps in different formats -*- lexical-binding: t -*-
;; Author: William Carroll <wpcarro@gmail.com>
;; Version: 0.0.1
;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "25.1"))
;;; Commentary:
;; I was making some API calls where a URL needed a `since` parameter that of an
;; RFC 3339 encoded string.
;;
;; Because I didn't know what a RFC 3339 encoded
;; string was at the time, and because I didn't know what its format was
;; according to strftime, and because I'm most likely to forget both of these
;; things by the next time that I need something similar, I decided to write
;; this package so that I can accumulate a list of common time encodings.
;;
;; Thank you, Emacs.
;;
;; p.s. - I may turn this into a proper module and publish it. But not today.
