Duff's Device

ה' מרחשון תשס"ז - October 26, 2006

Latest changes:

  • Lots of code cleanup.
  • Easier to add languages (I'd like to add an academic spelling as well)
  • Support for full names (Marcheshvan, Menachem Av)
  • XHTML 1.1 compliant! (span rtl)

Additionally, it can now compute the dates of posts or comments based on local sunset time. That way, comments made in the evening will be assigned the the proper Hebrew date!
