Description
I saw you can search in the last hour, day, month and year. Is there a possibility to search at a specific time frame ?
eg get search result from 1 January 2018 , at 16:30 till 2 January 2018 12:15 ? Or at least from 1 January 2018 till 2 January 2018 ?
Any idea how to do this?
I have found that in the google.js on line 44
URL = URL.indexOf('tbs=qdr:') >= 0 ? URL.replace(/tbs=qdr:[snhdwmy]\d*/, 'tbs=qdr:' + google.timeSpan) : URL.concat('&tbs=qdr:', google.timeSpan)
there is a google timeSpan but I am wondering how can I construct some time span to support options like this ?

Research direction
The relevant URL construction is in google.js around line 44; start by tracing how google.timeSpan is set and how search options reach it. Check the available Google query behavior for bounded dates and times. Done means the requested time-span behavior is implemented and verified, or the limitation is documented.
