The time-matching algorithm in this implementation is efficient, it avoids as much as possible to guess the next matching time stamp, a common technique seen in a number of implementations out there.

cronexpr: command-line utility
==============================
A command-line utility written in Go to evaluate cron time expressions.
It is based on the standalone Go library <https://github.com/gorhill/cronexpr>.
## Install
go get github.com/gorhill/cronexpr
go install github.com/gorhill/cronexpr
## Usage
cronexpr [options] "{cron expression}"
## Options
`-l`:
Go-compliant time layout to use for outputting time value(s), see <http://golang.org/pkg/time/#pkg-constants>.
Default is `"Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 MST"`
`-n`:
Number of resulting time values to output.
Default is 1.
`-t`:
Whole or partial RFC3339 time value (i.e. `2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00`) against which the cron expression is evaluated. Examples of valid values include (assuming EST time zone):
`13` = 2013-01-01T00:00:00-05:00
`2013` = 2013-01-01T00:00:00-05:00
`2013-08` = 2013-08-01T00:00:00-05:00
`2013-08-31` = 2013-08-31T00:00:00-05:00
`2013-08-31T12` = 2013-08-31T12:00:00-05:00
`2013-08-31T12:40` = 2013-08-31T12:40:00-05:00
`2013-08-31T12:40:35` = 2013-08-31T12:40:35-05:00
`2013-08-31T12:40:35-10:00` = 2013-08-31T12:40:35-10:00
Default time is current time, and default time zone is local time zone.
## Examples
#### Example 1
Midnight on December 31st of any year.
Command:
cronexpr -t="2013-08-31" -n=5 "0 0 31 12 *"
Output (assuming computer is in EST time zone):
# "0 0 31 12 *" + "2013-08-31T00:00:00-04:00" =
Tue, 31 Dec 2013 00:00:00 EST

Thu, 31 Dec 2015 00:00:00 EST
Sat, 31 Dec 2016 00:00:00 EST
Sun, 31 Dec 2017 00:00:00 EST
#### Example 2
2pm on February 29th of any year.
Command:
cronexpr -t=2000 -n=10 "0 14 29 2 *"
Output (assuming computer is in EST time zone):
# "0 14 29 2 *" + "2000-01-01T00:00:00-05:00" =
Tue, 29 Feb 2000 14:00:00 EST

Sun, 29 Feb 2032 14:00:00 EST
Fri, 29 Feb 2036 14:00:00 EST
#### Example 3
12pm on the work day closest to the 15th of March and every three month
thereafter.
Command:
cronexpr -t=2013-09-01 -n=5 "0 12 15W 3/3 *"
Output (assuming computer is in EST time zone):
# "0 12 15W 3/3 *" + "2013-09-01T00:00:00-04:00" =

Mon, 15 Sep 2014 12:00:00 EDT
#### Example 4
Midnight on the fifth Saturday of any month (twist: not all months have a 5th
specific day of week).
Command:
cronexpr -t=2013-09-02 -n 5 "0 0 * * 6#5"
Output (assuming computer is in EST time zone):
# "0 0 * * 6#5" + "2013-09-02T00:00:00-04:00" =
