Description of the new feature / enhancement
For now, I need to explicitly specify the timestamp format (* I've set
t
as the direct activation command):If I skip it, the plugin will refuse to parse it:
However, when I type
1737008124773
, mostly I'd expect it to be parsed asums
.To be specific, I suggest using the following regexes for inferring input format, instead of requiring explicit annotation:
\d{13}
ums
\d{10}
u
Explicit prefixes are still required for inputs that do not match any of them.
Scenario when this would be used?
Say I've copied a timestamp from somewhere. With inferring I only need to:
Without inferring I'd have to:
u
orums
Which is just so annoying and unproductive.
