The now macro returns the current date and time in a specified format.
The value doesn't update automatically, like a ticking clock. It updates whenever the macro call is rendered, such as when the containing tiddler's display needs to be refreshed for some other reason.
Parameters
- format
- A string specifying the desired format, defaulting to
0hh:0mm, DDth MMM YYYY
Note: The format string [UTC]YYYY0MM0DD0hh0mm0ssXXX
will return a date string representing the UTC time-stamp as it is used in the TiddlyWiki created
and modified
time-stamp fields.
