<p>
#set( $demo = $text.demo )
$demo.thisPage.insert("#doclink( 'DateTool' true )") and its subclass, the 
#doclink( 'ComparisonDateTool' true ).  As the DateTool
is quite full-featured and provides many similar functions with varying and
strongly-typed options, not all functions are demonstrated below.  See the javadoc
for a full listing of available functions.
