            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
339
 
            space-separated number of values, each of which is a
340
 
            number and a one-character suffix.  The suffix must be one
341
 
            of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
342
 
            <quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
343
 
            minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively.  The values are
344
 
            added together to give the total time value, so all of
345
 
            <quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
346
 
            <quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
347
 
            <quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value
348
 
            of five minutes and thirty seconds.
 
344
            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC
 
345
            3339 duration; for example
 
346
            <quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
 
347
            one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
 
348
            minutes, and six seconds.  Some values can be omitted, see
 
349
            RFC 3339 Appendix A for details.
