Hi Michael,
Does your unit also calculate the week from the first day to the last
day according to the system ?
For example, here Sunday is the first day of the "regular" week, while
on Europe and the US, it's Monday.
I wrote once a Delphi extension for such calculation without using the
OS API, however I can't use it, because it was written for specific
proprietary software. So I'm looking for an open source unit to do the
same.

Hello,
This is a known problem. The problem is that the variables which control
the date/time/currency formatting in the SysUtils unit are not initialized
on Unix. This is an open issue which must still be resolved. (it takes some
work to do this, unfortunately)
I have a unit which does this for you. It checks the KDE international
settings or the C library settings. It is not included by default in SysUtils
because it creates a dependency on the C library, but I can send this
unit to you in private.
Michael.
