RE: [GT] Opinions on date conversion sought

["Weigert, Thomas" <weigert AT mst.edu>]

One simple way: Take daily data, load as --timeframe=week, save price
array into format that is reloadable like the one I attached earlier
(you need to use your Date::Manip hacks for this to load), then load
with --timeframe=month.

Inside GT, you can just use
$calc->->set_current_timeframe
If you have the data in $calc, or if you have a prices array $p, you can
use
$p->set_timeframe
