Feature Request: default date format

Open axet opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

By default system time clock has its own systray time format stored in 'defaults' can you read initial value from its content or also store it backwards?

# defaults write 'com.apple.menuextra.clock' 'DateFormat' -string 'yyyy-MMM-dd EEE H:mm'

I didn't know the system stored its clock format in 'defaults' so thank you for pointing this out. Can you explain a bit more how the UI for this feature idea would work?

Sure, I love to share good stuff. Feature, tho, optional to you. The idea to read initial format from system settings, to simplify initial configuration. If I have configured time format already, I do not have to type whole string again. Just little comfort.

Another idea, to store this configuration back, if I decide to remove the app, I still have current format configured. Optional, maybe not so good idea.
