@Sija do you realize this aliases are only one character different?

@j8r It's about being able to write sleep 1.minute instead of sleep 1.minutes.

@j8r yes, I do, see @asterite's comment.

@j8r ditto is processed at the semantic level. That the methods are sorted alphabetically doesn't mean the ditto will be applied like that.

Sorry @asterite this wasn't as clear as :nodoc:, which has colons. Adding them around :ditto: will make more obvious that its a special semantic.

Yeah I considered that, but it's such a minor change that it's really not worth breaking.

@RX14 :ditto: seems to be already supported here, and also nodoc (without colons) here.
If yes, ditto can already be changed to :ditto:.
I can send a PR about removing the non-colons version of ditto and nodoc.

:ditto: and nodoc are unused in my experience, ditto and :nodoc: are what people tend to use. I'm not sure thats worth changing.

@RX14 @j8r please discuss this in a separate issue. Thanks 👍

Just needs review

We can use a single macros to add all this non s variants:

{% for time in %w(nanosecond microsecond millisecond second minute hour day week month year)  %}
 # Returns a `Time::Span` of `self` {{time.id}}s.
  def {{time.id}} : Time::Span
    {{time.id}}s
  end
{% end %}

Can this go forward?

2nd review, @bcardiff @asterite, anyone?
