Offsets of parsed date text?

[felciano]

Hi --

This is a great library! I love the fact that parsedatetime can pull a
date from the following:

d = PDT_CALENDAR.parse("flight from SFO Friday at 4pm on United")

I've been using it for almost a year and it is great -- works in
pretty much any configuration. Thank you for making in available!

After a succesful date parse, I'd like to simplify / shorten the above
string to:

"flight from SFO on United"

Is that doable using datetimeparse? For example, is there a way to get
the character offsets that were identified for the datetime portion?

Thanks again for a great library.

Right now there isn't a way to pull out the text that was matched for
a date. It has been something I've been wanting to do - create a text
graph of matched/unmatched text and the date items pulled.

Thanks for using the library and I'm glad you have found it helpful.
