Date Designators

Tinderbox's date parser accepts the following expressions as placeholders for calculated dates:

yesterday
today

now
tomorrow
day
week
month
year

There is a further special case:

never. No date - earlier or later than any real date.

Treat usage for the above as case sensitive.

Day placeholders - Sunday, Monday, etc. - may also be used. Tinderbox recognises the day of the week (in English, currently) and interprets it as the day after today with that week day. Thus on Sunday June 1, the date "Sunday" refers to Sunday, June 8.

In other respects, days of the week act like today and can be modified similarly, e.g. "Monday - 1" week is the previous Monday.
