Functions

func ExtractDateLine

func ExtractDateLine(content, prefix string) string

ExtractDateLine returns the value of a date-like header line matching the given prefix. Example: prefix ":created-date:" matches a line like ":created-date: March 23, 2026" and returns "March 23, 2026".

func NormalizeForCompare

func NormalizeForCompare(s string) string

NormalizeForCompare returns a version of the input with volatile header lines removed. Currently strips :created-date: and :revdate: lines so generators can perform stable comparisons and avoid rewriting files when only the date changes.
