const usage = `usage: when <time>

This program converts the given time into various formats (currently a local
timestamp, UTC timestamp, and UNIX epoch). It tries to guess what the input is.

Some valid queries:

  2024-01-05
  1715079241
  tomorrow 5PM
  -22h
  -7h10m

For now a single timestamp and a single duration (which is added either to the
current time, or the given time) is supported.`
