Ican confirm that I have considered these issues (esp. 1400 vs. 14:00). Fractional hours don't seem to be that easy as there arecountries like Poland where you use comma as decimal point (working withEmacs' built in calc is a pain) which earns another few lines for parsing code.AFAIC, I won't mess with this part of the code, I think it's quite easyenough to enter 14:00 instead of 1400...Not really in fact if you use keypad. It's not about the number of keystrokes but their layout. Try it.
Hi Lukasz, the problem with making the parser more general is that it might start to interpret years as durations and the other way round.You are welcome to submit a patch - but it would have to be a careful one.
