datetimespan gem
================

This gem allows rendering of date/time span strings based on a format.

Example
-------

dts = DateTimeSpan.new(Date.new(2010, 12, 1), Date.new(2010, 12, 2))
dts.to_s
 -> "Wednesday  1 - Thursday  2 December 2010"

The signature of the important methods is as follows:

DateTimeSpan.new(start_dt, end_dt, format = nil, separator = nil)

DateTimeSpan#to_s(format = nil, separator = nil)

When format or separator are nil, DateTimeSpan.default_format and DateTimeSpan.default_separator are used.
These start as "%A %e %B %Y" and " - " respectively


Limitations
-----------
Currently, it only works for hierarchically ordered date-formats (so not US).
