Yes, that is the documented work-around. Better is to simply add the function so you can leave-out the documentation (which is also hard to find). -- MarkOv ------------------------------------------------------------------------ drs Mark A.C.J.

Granted, but I will not add a myriad of little functions for special cases. The wishlist is endless and would never end, no matter what. It also goes against the philosophy of the module, be minimal but (computationally) complete. Sorry to disappoint you. :-)

This function will be included in the new module Date::Calc::Util, to be released shortly.
