What is it?
-------------------
DTFH is Palm OS hack (or extension if you prefer) that modifies date
formatting function to extend it functionality.


What does it do?
-------------------
This hack influences the way some system functions format date and time
strings. As for now it just encforces leading zeros to be added to dates
(month and day mainly) whenever its value would otherwise occupy just one
digit (values less than 10). So instead of 96/1/9 you will see 96/01/09
as long as the hack is active. More features to come - hence the hack name.

Please note the application needs to internally call particular Palm OS'
functions for this hack to take effect. Most apps do, but if your favourite
one is immune to this hack, you may try to ask the developers how do they
format date and time strings or point to DTFH to let them investigate if they
can join the wagon (assuming they would will to do so, of course).


Requirements
-------------------
- Palm OS 5.0 or newer
- YAHM hack manager installed (freeware)
    Get it from: http://yahm.palmoid.com/ or any Palm OS site like
    PalmGear.com and others


Installation
-------------------
To use DTFH you need YAHM installed. If you do not have it yet, please do
install YAHM first (just download, unpack and install YAHM.prc)

Assuming YAHM is installed, copy DateTimeFormatHack.prc to your PDA main
memory (any way will do - IrDA, BT, Hotsync etc). Since Hack is not regular
application it will not appear in launcher. Launch YAHM and you will see the
hack there. Enable it there and enjoy ;)


Upgrading DTFH
-------------------
Due to nature of hack special attention have to be paid during upgrade process to
avoid problems and/or data loss. If you already got older version of DTFH installed,
please ALWAYS disable it in YAHM before you install new version. If you leave it
enabled the hack may not be upgraded or, in worst case your system will crash. Always
turn any hack off if you want to install never version of it.
