;;; Commentary:
;; A template in a file can be updated with a new time stamp when
;; you save the file. For example:
;; static char *ts = "sdmain.c Time-stamp: <2001-08-13 10:20:51 gildea>";
;; To use time-stamping, add this line to your init file:
;; (add-hook 'before-save-hook 'time-stamp)
;; Now any time-stamp templates in your files will be updated automatically.
;; See the documentation for the functions `time-stamp'
;; and `time-stamp-toggle-active' for details.

"Format of the string inserted by \\[time-stamp].
This is a string, used verbatim except for character sequences beginning
with %, as follows. The values of non-numeric formatted items depend
on the locale setting recorded in `system-time-locale' and
`locale-coding-system'. The examples here are for the default
\(`C') locale.
%:A weekday name: `Monday' %#A gives uppercase: `MONDAY'
%3a abbreviated weekday: `Mon' %#a gives uppercase: `MON'
%:B month name: `January' %#B gives uppercase: `JANUARY'
%3b abbreviated month: `Jan' %#b gives uppercase: `JAN'
%02d day of month
%02H 24-hour clock hour
%02I 12-hour clock hour
%02m month number
%02M minute
%#p `am' or `pm' %P gives uppercase: `AM' or `PM'
%02S seconds
%w day number of week, Sunday is 0
%02y 2-digit year: `03' %Y 4-digit year: `2003'
%Z time zone name: `EST' %#Z gives lowercase: `est'
%5z time zone offset: `-0500' (since Emacs 27; see note below)
Non-date items:
%% a literal percent character: `%'
%f file name without directory %F gives absolute pathname
%l login name %L full name of logged-in user
%q unqualified host name %Q fully-qualified host name
%h mail host name
Decimal digits between the % and the type character specify the
field width. Strings are truncated on the right.
A leading zero in the field width zero-fills a number.
For example, to get the format used by the `date' command,
use \"%3a %3b %2d %02H:%02M:%02S %Z %Y\".
The default padding of some formats has changed to be more compatible
with format-time-string. To be compatible with older versions of Emacs,
specify a padding width (as shown) or use the : modifier to request the
transitional behavior (again, as shown).
The behavior of `%5z' is new in Emacs 27. If your files might be
edited by older versions of Emacs also, do not use this format yet."

This string has four parts, each of which is optional.
These four parts set `time-stamp-line-limit', `time-stamp-start',
`time-stamp-format', and `time-stamp-end'. See the documentation
for each of these variables for details.
The first part is a number followed by a slash; the number sets the number
of lines at the beginning (negative counts from end) of the file searched
for the time stamp. The number and the slash may be omitted to use the
normal value.
The second part is a regexp identifying the pattern preceding the time stamp.
This part may be omitted to use the normal pattern.
The third part specifies the format of the time stamp inserted. See
the documentation for `time-stamp-format' for details. Specify this
part as \"%%\" to use the normal format.
The fourth part is a regexp identifying the pattern following the time stamp.
This part may be omitted to use the normal pattern.
Examples:
\"-10/\" (sets only `time-stamp-line-limit')
\"-9/^Last modified: %%$\" (sets `time-stamp-line-limit',
`time-stamp-start' and `time-stamp-end')
\"@set Time-stamp: %:B %1d, %Y$\" (sets `time-stamp-start',
`time-stamp-format' and `time-stamp-end')
\"newcommand{\\\\\\\\timestamp}{%%}\" (sets `time-stamp-start'
