hello,
Is there a Python module to interpret fuzzy timestamps like the date command in unix:
> date -d "2 minutes ago"

The closest I have found so far is dateutil.parser, which fails for the above example.
thanks

I have been dabbling with this using pyparsing - you can find my latest attempt here. It works for these test cases:
today
tomorrow
yesterday
in a couple of days
a couple of days from now
a couple of days from today
in a day
3 days ago
3 days from now
a day ago
now
10 minutes ago
10 minutes from now
in 10 minutes
in a minute
in a couple of minutes
20 seconds ago
in 30 seconds
20 seconds before noon
20 seconds before noon tomorrow
noon
midnight
noon tomorrow
