NAME
       dconv - Convert dates between calendars or time zones

SYNOPSIS
       dconv [OPTION]... [DATE/TIME]...

DESCRIPTION
       dconv 0.2.7

       Convert	DATE/TIMEs between calendrical systems.	 If DATE/TIME is omit‐
       ted date/times are read from stdin.

       DATE/TIME can also be one of the following specials

       - `now'
	      interpreted as the current (UTC) time stamp

       - `time'
	      the time part of the current (UTC) time stamp

       - `today'
	      the current date (according to UTC)

       - `tomo[rrow]'
	      tomorrow's date (according to UTC)

       - `y[ester]day'
	      yesterday's date (according to UTC)

       -h, --help
	      Print help and exit

       -V, --version
	      Print version and exit

       -q, --quiet
	      Suppress message about date/time and duration parser errors.

       -f, --format=STRING
	      Output format.  This can either be a specifier  string  (similar
	      to strftime()'s FMT) or the name of a calendar.

       -i, --input-format=STRING
	      Input  format,  can be used multiple times.  Each date/time will
	      be passed to the input format parsers  in	 the  order  they  are
	      given,  if  a  date/time	can  be read successfully with a given
	      input format specifier string, that value will be used.

       --default=DT
	      For underspecified input use DT as a fallback to fill in missing
	      fields.	Must be a date/time in ISO8601 format.	If omitted the
	      default value is the current date/time.

       -e, --backslash-escapes
	      Enable interpretation of backslash escapes  in  the  output  and
	      input format specifier strings.

       -S, --sed-mode
	      Copy parts from the input before and after a matching date/time.
	      Note that all occurrences of date/times within a	line  will  be
	      processed.

       --from-zone=ZONE
	      Interpret	 dates on stdin or the command line as coming from the
	      time zone ZONE.

       -z, --zone=ZONE
	      Convert dates printed on stdout to time zone ZONE, default: UTC.
