[Gambas-user] [Gambas Bug Tracker] Bug #704: Format does not handle time separator correctly

[Jussi Lahtinen]

I have a feeling this is not first time I get confused with that...

So, this:
Format(Now, "hh\\:mm dd\\/mm\\/yyyy")

Yields this, ignoring localization:
15:08 27/08/2015

Documentation could be bit more specific how to quote the characters, there
are other non-working options like \:\, or \:.
Maybe the above could be one of the examples.
