I think I understand what's going on now, but I'm still at a loss as to
how to get the date I want. Can I tell the exporter that the date on the
document should be derived from the current time (or the last
modification time), formatted a particular way? For example, I can use
this macro to put the current time in my document:

    {{{time(%Y-%m-%d %H:%M)}}}

How can I set #+DATE to get an equivalent result?

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards,
Mike
