Subtract two dates keyboard maestro mod#

Keep in mind that TIME is in GMT and the output of ICUDateTimeFor is in local time, so when doing this sort of thing it is best to use midday instead of midnight: %ICUDateTimeFor%TIME(2016, 4, 20)+(6*7*24*3600)%EEE, MMM d, yyyy%ДЄre more simply done by adding/subtracting in the date column.

Like this: %ICUDateTimePlus%(7+5-DOW(NOW)) MOD 7%Days%EEE, MMM d, yyyy%ДЄlso, these: two weeks before Sep 28 2015 To ensure it is positive, you need to add 7 and MOD 7. This will not give a future time if the DOW is 6 or 7 (ie, Friday or Saturday) - youвЂ™ll get the past Thursday instead of the future Thursday. %ICUDateTimePlus%5-DOW(NOW)%Days%EEE, MMM d, yyyy% Unix epoch seconds в‡„ Julian days // intUniењЋpochSeconds в†’ floatJulianDays GMT в†’ local time // () в†’ intDifferenceInSeconds intYear в†’ intMonth в†’ intDay в†’ intHour, intMins, intSeconds, string ( allowing a margin for variations in time zones ) so pinning a day down by midday (rather than midnight) may be prudent Note, the epoch seconds returned by TIME() are GMT, Translations date в†’ string // intUniењЋpochSeconds в†’ string %ICUDateTimeFor%TIME(YEAR(), MONTH()+1, 1)%EEE, MMM d, yyyy%

Offsets (relative date-times constructed as anchor + Interval, or the time elapsed between two dates), and.Anchor date-times ( absolute calendar dates, now, and system events like start-of-session or macro launch).Here are some rough draft notes (now incorporating several edits and fixes suggested by Peter) on:

(For initial simplicity, I have kept to the Unix Epoch Seconds functions, and left the Julian Day functions aside, though they are clearly indispensable for historians, and convenient for quick counts of days between two dates ) Finding that I wasn't very familiar with KM date calculations and date formatting, I sketched some draft notes and examples.
