25	Add new internal variable: _TS (TimeStamp)	Lewis Rosenthal	Gregg Young	"Following onto my previous enhancement request (ticket #24), I propose a new internal variable, _TS, to return a formatted timestamp.

Currently, Steve advises that he uses something like:


{{{
%[_YEAR]%@right[2,0%_MONTH]%@right[2,0%_DAY]-%@right[2,0%_HOUR]%@right[2,0%_MINUTE]
}}}

and sets that in an ENV var (SET TS=). By adding _TS as an internal variable and the associated TSFMT formatting template (per my suggestion in ticket #24):


{{{
SET TSFMT=YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM
}}}

or


{{{
SET TSFMT=YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS
}}}


all that would be required would be to use a simple:


{{{
%_TS
}}}

to insert a timestamp of the desired precision on the command line or in a batch file."	enhancement	closed	minor	Version-3.10	Base	3.08	fixed
