Perhaps you're right, I was too hasty. I brought back that code under the name you suggested, by installing the attached.
Thank you, and developers 70-80 years from now will thank you! Between now and then, I hope to get the "date formatting" printf examples removed from: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/fprintf.html#tag_1... which are examples of what not to do, as it causes future problems, when you have specialized, localized facilities available, better suited to do those jobs, like strftime(3), gettext(3), catgets(3), and friends. -- Take care.
