To install the "Insert Date" and "Insert Time" extensions, place them into
your "BBEdit Extensions" folder and restart (or launch) BBEdit. They will
appear now in the BBEdit's "Extensions" menu.

The "Insert Date" and "Insert Time" extensions perform simple but useful
functions. When activated, they insert the current date and time at the
cursor's location.

Insert Date v1.2
----------------

To use the "Insert Date" extension, select it from the "Extensions" menu
and the date (in its abbreviated format) will be inserted into any open
document.

Example: Mon, Feb 6, 1995.

By holding the "option" key down while selecting "Insert Date", you can
insert the date in long format.

Example: Monday, February 6, 1995.

To insert the date in short format, simply hold the "shift" key down while
selecting "Insert Date".

Example: 02/06/95.

Insert Date Example Modifier Key
--------------------------- ------------
Mon, Feb 6, 1995 None
Monday, February 6, 1995 option
02/06/95 shift

Insert Time v1.2
----------------

When selected from the "Extensions" menu, "Insert Time" will insert the
time (including seconds) into any open document.

Example: 4:40:05 PM.

To insert the time without seconds, just hold the "option" key down while
selecting it.

Example: 4:40 PM.

Insert Date Example Modifier Key
--------------------------- ------------
(12hr.)

4:10:14 PM None

You can also use the "Set KeysŠ" option in the "Extensions" menu to assign
extension keys to "Insert Date" and/or "Insert Time", then a date and time
stamps are just a short keystroke away.

"Insert Date" and "Insert Time" are free. There is no shareware fee.

Enjoy!
