Wrong interpretation of day/date ?
My computer's date configuration is dd/mm/yyyy. I want to set up an appointment in Evernote for January, 1st 2012:
##02/01/2012## and ##02/January/2012## are sync'ed ok and TuskTools Calendar shows it in the correct day.
Any other date format is incorrectly interpreted, for instance:
##Jan 02## - appointment goes to February, 2nd
##2 Jan## - appointment goes to February, 1st
##January 2nd## - - appointment goes to February, 2nd
Regards.

Hi Marcos,
I was not able to reproduce your issue - in all three of your latter cases, that date interpretation worked correctly in my testing here.
Can you post a screenshot of the "Format" tab within your Windows Control Panel "Region and Language" settings dialog? I want to see if there is a difference between your settings and what I used in my testing of your issue. Thanks!

I have two issues:
1. A suggestion: date interpretation should be done according to a standard, not to system settings. People is not always able to configure every computer they use to match their home computer settings. That means if i use ISO standard at home (yyyy-mm-dd) dates are going to be terribly wrong at office computer with colombian date settings (dd/mm/yyyy) and also wrong if i use it on another computer where they left USA ONES (mm/dd/yyyy (one of the most non-sense date formats ever)).
2. ##date format## gots deeply confused when all the script files code we placed on our notes. Some scripts use # as comment characters, so some scripts also use ## just to start a comment and make that line looks nicer... so TT got confused and started to convert them into dates :s. Of course this is not the expected result. That thing prevented me to sync with Google Calendar, we don't want to publish our notes on server or code changes on Google...
