how to use --time-style=FORMAT with relative

[danielb2]

I'd like to show both relative and iso-long together. I can replicate iso-long easily with regular +"%F %R", but how can I add relative?

[gierens]

The --time-style relative is a special eza mode while the patterns like --time-style '+%F %R' are handed to the chrono crate for expansion. chronos format specifiers are listed here: https://docs.rs/chrono/latest/chrono/format/strftime/index.html . It does not seem to support relative formatting. So this is not possible at the moment.

Theoretically we could add another mode for this, but we would need a good design first. Just a 'full-iso-and-relative` seems a little niche to me.

Personally, I would use --time-style %F %R<newline><RELATIVE> %R to show old files in ISO format and recent files in relative format.
