SYNOPSIS
subroutine fmtdate_usage(indent)
integer,intent(in),optional :: indent
DESCRIPTION
The fmtdate_usage(3f) subroutine displays the formatting options available for use in procedures such as fmtdate(3f) and now(3f). It is typically used to produce up-to-date help text in commands that use the M_time(3fm) module, so that the formatting information only needs maintained in one place (this routine) and is easily displayed so users can quickly obtain a description of the formatting macros.
OPTIONS
indent how many spaces to prefix the output with, so that calling programs can position the output. Default for this optional parameter is three (3).
EXAMPLE
Sample Program:
program demo_fmtdate_usage use M_time, only : fmtdate_usage implicit none call fmtdate_usage() ! see all formatting options end program demo_fmtdate_usageresults (actually call the routine to ensure this is up to date):

If no percent (%) is found in the format one of several alternate substitutions occurs.
If the format is composed entirely of one of the following keywords the following substitutions occur:
"iso-8601", "iso" ==> %Y-%M-%DT%h:%m:%s%z "iso-8601W", "isoweek" ==> %I 2016-W30-5 "sql" ==> "%Y-%M-%D %h:%m:%s.%x" "sqlday" ==> "%Y-%M-%D" "dash" ==> %Y-%M-%D "sqltime" ==> "%h:%m:%s.%x" "rfc-2822" ==> %w, %D %l %Y %h:%m:%s %T "rfc-3339" ==> %Y-%M-%DT%h:%m:%s%z "date" ==> %w %l %D %h:%m:%s UTC%z %Y "short" ==> %w, %l %d, %Y %H:%m:%s %N UTC%z "long"," " ==> %W, %L %d, %Y %H:%m:%s %N UTC%z "suffix" ==> %Y%D%M%h%m%s "formal" ==> The %d of %L %Y "lord" ==> the %d day of %L in the year of our Lord %Y "easter" ==> FOR THE YEAR OF THE CURRENT DATE: Easter day: the %d day of %L in the year of our Lord %Y "all" ==> A SAMPLE OF DATE FORMATS "usage|help|?" ==> %?Examples of single keywords

numeric values:
year %Y 2016 month %M 07 day %D 29 hour %h 10 minute %m 54 second %s 08 timezone %T 0400
epoch %e 1469804049 julian %j 2457599 ordinal %O 211 weekday %u 5 age %A 13238944.3030

If none of these keywords are found then every letter that is a macro is assumed to have an implied percent in front of it. For example:
YMDhms ==> %Y%M%D%h%m%s ==> 20160729105408
