Problem with time formating

Hey @sucooon!

To count from a date into the future, you should use $(countup) instead of $(countdown).
As explained in the documentation:
countdown: use the variable to create commands that display the time left until a specified date.
countup: use the variable to create commands that display the time since a specified date.

Now that this issue is out of the way, let’s see how to do what you’re looking for:

$(eval y=`$(countup 09 26 1979 00:00:00 AM Europe/Berlin)`.split(` `);y.length=2;y.join(` `);)

With this you’ll get XX years as a result.
If you wish to only have XX, replace y.length=2;y.join(` `); with y[0];, like this:

$(eval y=`$(countup 09 26 1979 00:00:00 AM Europe/Berlin)`.split(` `);y[0];)
