Note that hours can be left blank, to make it display the +same as the hour before. Midnight, noon, and teatime are all hardcoded, +since they do not occupy the whole hour. + +The format used for the date can be customised using the `prettydateformat` +configuration variable in the setup file. `%X` will be expanded to the +prettified time value.
