Manual page for strftime(4)
strftime - language specific strings
DESCRIPTION
Each locale has a printable file
specifying date and time formatting information,
/usr/lib/locale/locale/LC_TIME
where
locale
is the locale name.
These files specify:
-
- 1. abbreviated month names (in order)
-
- 2. full month names (in order)
-
- 3. abbreviated weekday names (in order)
-
- 4. full weekday names (in order)
-
- 5. string to specify local time representation (%X)
-
- 6. string to specify local date representation (%x)
-
- 7. string to specify local date and time (%c) for strftime() default
-
- 8. AM (ante meridian) string
-
- 9. PM (post meridian) string
-
- 10. string to specify local date and time (%C) for cftime() default
-
Each string is on a line by itself. All white space is significant.
The order of the strings in the above list
is the same order in which they must appear in the file.
