Referring to:

timestamp , <focitem>;
Sets all 3 dates of all selected List items to match those of the focused item.

What's the difference between the selected items and focused item?

You can have more than one selected item, but only one focused item. Also: all focused items are selected, but not all selected items are focused.

In a selection, the items that was selected last is the focused item.

Oh, I see only the last selected item is the focused item.
Thanks.

Part 2 is wrong. Actually there is always one focused item, even if none are selected. And you can select only non-focused items using mouse drag.

Ah, I see. Actually I shouldn't have missed it because focused items have a light-orange background, and this BG is there even if they're non-selected

isn't this also wrong? Because focused items DO get selected if it falls within the mouse-dragged selection rectangle...

Well, language failure. I meant to say: You can select items that are all non-focused. So my "only" was semantically attached to "non-focused", no to "you can select".
