Suppose your file contains the string "Tue 30 Jan 2024".
Place the cursor on the T, then hit Ctrl-A. The text becomes "Wed 31 Jan 2024". Hit Ctrl-A again, it's now "Thu 01 Feb 2024".
Place the cursor on the 4, hit Ctrl-X. The text reads "Wed 01 Feb 2023".
If you hit d followed by Ctrl-X, the date below the cursor becomes the current date, respecting the format it had before.
Works not only with dates, but also times, and combined date/time.
