Change Details

I remember this working the last time I tried, but I wouldn't venture a guess when it stopped working.

(y/N) /%%% The correct output should be "Key expires at Tue Dec 31 23:59:59 2019 PST" This feature is not documented at all in the user guides but I've been using it for years. It's documented in the source code, but not very well. It looks to me that the first character after the "T" is being ignored. This format (no punctuation and a "T" separating the date and time) is the only format that can be used to specify a time. To specify a date with no time, YYYY-MM-DD can be used.
