I asked for it a couple of weeks ago, and so I decided I could do it for
myself, and here it is: free for anyone to use, Walter can put it in phobos
if he feels it's good enough, a set of functions to convert a d_time to a
char []. Recognized tokens are available in the source code. This is the
very first time I write some kind of parser or whatever, so it may not be
optimal or fast or up to what every one is used to, but it works.
It works ok in Windows (with some timezones, as I reported before) and
apparently the date functions are not ok in Linux, so it's not good all the
time.
Anyway, if you need it, feel free to use it.

How does it differ from std.date.toDateString()?

That you can specify exactly the format of your time or date, just like you would in Excel, VB, Oracle, MS-SQL, etc.

Sorry, I found a couple of bugs with "month", "W" and "WW". Fixed now.
