[line 73]
A class used to format dates, as well as generate them.
New in 1.4:
format(), time(), and timestamp() methods don't error on 00000... date values.
New in 1.6:
Added add(), subtract(), and roundTime() methods.
New in 1.8:
You can now pass an associative array of formats to the format() and
timestamp() methods. The keys may be 'today', 'yesterda', 'tomorrow',
'this week', and 'other'. The appropriate format will then be used.
New in 2.0:
Added a toUnix() method, a compare() method, and improved the flexibility
of the basic format() method to support the formats of timestamp() as well.
YEAR_IN_SECONDS, 31536000
WEEK_IN_SECONDS, 604800
DAY_IN_SECONDS, 86400
HOUR_IN_SECONDS, 3600
New in 2.2:
Removed the EasyText() and EasyTextInit() methods.

Compares two dates, full date/time ('YmdHis' or 'Y-m-d H:i:s' formats),
or unix timestamps, and returns -1 if the first is greater, 0 if they are equal, and 1 if the second is greater. Optional third and fourth parameters, $equality_range, and $range_forward, allow you to specify a range of time in seconds that qualifies as the equality range. If $range_forward is set, then $equality_range acts as a "past range" and $range_forward acts as a "future" range, allowing you to compare a date to say the following 24 hours. If $range_forward is not set, then $equality_range acts as both the past and future range. Note: The range is always surrounding $date2, so for logic that requires the range to be around $date1, reverse the dates.
Returns the specified time (or the current time, if unspecified) with an offset in hours from GMT to the local timezone. $date is a Unix timestamp in this method.
Parses a time string (format: HH:MM:SS) and rounds it to the nearest 15 minutes, 1/2 hour, or hour, depending on the interval value set. $interval may be 15, 30, or 60. Returns the time as a string in the same format as it accepts.
Subtracts from the specified date and returns the finished calculation. $date is in the format Y-m-d, and $amount can be either '# year', '# month', '# week', or '# day', where # is any number.
Accepts a date ('Y-m-d' format), full date/time ('YmdHis' or 'Y-m-d H:i:s' formats), or unix timestamp, and returns a unix timestamp equivalent (or the value passed if passed a timestamp already). Returns a timestamp of the current date/time if passed no date at all.
