This module shows information about the current date.
NOTE: This module supports most—but not all—of the formatting sequences that can be found in man date. For example, to display the time in 12-hour format, you can use either %I:%M or %l:%M for a 0-padded hour or a space-padded hour respectively.
Formatting sequences such as %-I (12-hour time without padding) will not work. Use a custom script with the date command as a workaround.
