There are some cron systems that use these additional symbols. For example AWS Event Bridge / Cloud Watch Events.

Example

* 10 * * ? *

Ok. narrowed it down, 😆 . Thanks for supporting the vast majority of characters already. The ? is the big one I'm hitting issues with in day of the week.

Hey @sirfuzzalot,
I made an "Ansible plugin" that uses this library to do conversions from a local AWS cron. "L" is not supported but you can copy parts of that code to make your function or your library (and I will copy your work 🤣).
The code in all of my projects is not good, so please don't judge me.
