[Glass] TimeStamp format

[Dale Henrichs via Glass]

Dario,

In order to control the format of Date printing you need to use
#asStringUsingFormat:. The format array for DD/MM/YYY is:

  #(1 2 3 $/ 1 1 $: true true false)

TimeStamp does not implement #asStringUsingFormat: but it should and it
should look like this:

asStringUsingFormat: anArray
  "Returns a String that expresses the receiver in the format defined by
anArray.
 Generates an error if anArray contains an incorrect formatting
specification.

 See the class documentation of Date for a complete description of the
 String-formatting specification Array."

  | strm |
  strm := WriteStream on: String new.
  strm
    nextPutAll: (self date asStringUsingFormat: anArray);
    space;
    nextPutAll: self time printString.
  ^ strm contents

I will be adding this method into the GLASS master branch shortly ... I've
submitted an issue for this[1] ...

Dale
