Feature - add bracketed date support when composing new entry (#1915) #1918

Open chwt opened 1 week ago

chwt commented 1 week ago

Bracketed dates like [2020-01-01] at the beginning of an entry will be parsed and used as the entry date, thus be removed from the entry text.

Colon : and starred * usage is mostly covered too, see test cases.

Fixes #1915
