Trygve: "And what does this wonderful compiler do with 7/4/2006 ?
It is 7 April here, 4th July there. >:-o"
Good point.
In the VW and Dolphin versions of Chronos, there are instance methods of
String such as #mdyAsDate, #dmyAsDate and #ymdAsDate, that parse a
YearMonthDay (a "date") from a String. The method selector should make it
clear what the expected interpretation of '7/4/2006' is:
'7/4/2006' dmyAsDate => 2006-April-07
'7/4/2006' mdyAsDate => 2006-July-04
