[jonas-frey]

how can i create a shortcut to insert date and time, say in the format of the bash command
date -u +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S ?

thanks!

Bind it to "command:textfilter date -u +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S".

how do i do that? could you give some more details?

Either run this command in micro:

bind Alt-d "command:textfilter date -u +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S"

or manually add this binding to your ~/.config/micro/bindings.json:

    "Alt-d": "command:textfilter date -u +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S",

(Replace Alt-d with the shortcut you want.)
