Description:
------------
I have started to convert all of my date and time output
and input to the Pear Date class. Because I use the
format function for all output I noticed there is no way
to display the hour without the leading zero.

This is supported by the date() function in PHP.

I would rather not have to use getHour() along with the
other "get" type functions to output the hour without
the leading zero.

Maybe use "%h" for this?

For example:
5:55:55 could be output by $date->format("%h:%M:%S");

I am using version 1.4.3 of the Date library, but the
documentation I am referencing is 1.4.2 (since 1.4.3
gives a 404).

Thanks.

Here's a patch that adds two new options:
%h hour as single digit decimal number (0 to 23)
%i hour as single digit decimal number on 12-hour clock (1 to 12)

here's a patch that works as Nick describes:

> break;
355a348,351
> case "i":
> $hour = ($this->hour + 1) > 12 ? $this->hour - 12 : $this->hour;
> $output .= sprintf("%d", $hour==0 ? 12 : $hour);
> break;
