Subject: Date/time prompt  parses '3-2' as 'Month-Day', can I configure it to parse it as 'Day-Month' ?
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 19:36:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130129193653.6460d3b5@hsdev.com> (raw)

Hi,

The date/time prompt, as described at [1], helps me a lot to quickly go
over items and (re-)schedule or put a deadline to them. 
It has bitten me a couple of times though where I typed
'3-2' where my intention was to put it at the 'third of february' and
ended up with something at the 'second of march'.

Is there some way I could adapt the interpretation? The date
format 'd-m-y' is wired into my hands apparently. 

Thx,
marcel
