DESCRIPTION

The two classes are custom classes of the Magic User Interface by Stefan Stuntz, and a subclass of string-class and date-class.

The idea of this class was born during developing my Gregor application.

DateString.mcc is a MUI public custom class displaying a string gadget for date strings. The display format of the date string can be freely defined. An input string can be parsed by the given format string (see below), or in over 40 known formats.

DateText.mcc is a MUI public custom class displaying a text gadget for date strings The display format of the date string can be freely defined.

Features of the two classes that are of interest for users:
• Handles years from 8 to 8000
• Supports the Gregorian calendar reform
• Supports 21 languages
• Can be dragged around
• A week can begin with any weekday
