* :kwd.ELAPSED days calculation
* :abs.ELAPSE is a REXX function that does various date functions on
* any given date, rather than on only todays date. The primary function
* is to calculate the day difference between a given date and todays
* date.
* The specified date can like REXX's DATE function be specified
* in the U, O or S format.
* Rather than returning the number of days passed since a given date,
* ELAPSE can also return the day of the week belonging to the given
* date, or the name of the month, or the absolute day number, where
* 1 jan 0001 is supposed to be day 1.
* There is no restriction on the year value, though the result is based
* on the Gregorian calender, as if it ever existed.
* To do more complicated date calculations, ELAPSE can also be feeded
* with the absolute day number, and is then able to return the
* corresponding date, weekday or month name.
