[Mutt] #2916: Message Age in $index_format; %g
#2916: Message Age in $index_format; %g
Some are interested to see the age of a message instead of its
absolute date in $index_format. I propose to add `%g` and `%G`
sequences to $index_format format strings. I've attached a patch that
implements this feature.
%g = the age of the message (uses time sent)
%G = the age of the message (uses time received)
The patch uses this format:
||Notation||The message was received||
||2m||two minutes ago||
||5h 34m||5 hours and 34 minutes ago||
||1D 21h||1 day and 21 hours ago||
||2M 12D||2 months 12 days ago||
||3Y 11M||3 years 11 months ago||
