+ * When dealing with time elapsed, it is common to append a post fix
+ * such as d(day), h(hour), m(minute) or s(second) to a string in order to easily denote the brief duration
+ * of the time span from now. This plug-in allows sorting to take these
+ * indicates of size into account.
+ *
+ * A counterpart type detection plug-in is also available.

+ *  @name Time span
