Converts a DOS timestamp to UNIX format.There are very few cases where this is needed, but some binary formats use it (eg: zip files.) Converting the other direction is done using {@link Date::unix2dos}.
$unix = Date::dos2unix($dos);

Returns the difference between a time and now in a "fuzzy" way. Displaying a fuzzy time instead of a date is usually faster to read and understand.
$span = Date::fuzzy_span(time() - 10); // "moments ago"
$span = Date::fuzzy_span(time() + 20); // "in moments"
A second parameter is available to manually set the "local" timestamp, however this parameter shouldn't be needed in normal usage and is only included for unit tests

Number of minutes in an hour, incrementing by a step. Typically used as a shortcut for generating a list that can be used in a form.
$minutes = Date::minutes(); // 05, 10, 15, ..., 50, 55, 60

}
Number of months in a year. Typically used as a shortcut for generating a list that can be used in a form.
By default a mirrored array of $month_number => $month_number is returned
Date::months();
// aray(1 => 1, 2 => 2, 3 => 3, ..., 12 => 12)
But you can customise this by passing in either Date::MONTHS_LONG
Date::months(Date::MONTHS_LONG);
// array(1 => 'January', 2 => 'February', ..., 12 => 'December')
Or Date::MONTHS_SHORT
Date::months(Date::MONTHS_SHORT);

Returns the offset (in seconds) between two time zones. Use this to display dates to users in different time zones.

Returns time difference between two timestamps, in human readable format. If the second timestamp is not given, the current time will be used. Also consider using Date::fuzzy_span when displaying a span.
