Here's what I got: --------- Begin output ------------------------ a: Fri A: Friday b: Apr B: April c: 04/26/02 14:46:38 C: Fri Apr 26 14:46:38 2002 d: 26 D: 04/26/02 e: 26 G: G h: Apr H: 14 I: 02 j: 116 k: 14 l: 2 m: 04 M: 46 n: p: PM r: 02:46:38 PM R: 14:46 S: 38 t: (tab) T: 14:46:38 u: u U: 16 V: V w: 5 W: 16 x: 04/26/02 X: 14:46:38 y: 02 Y: 2002 Z: PDT --------- End output ------------------ >From this I draw the following conclusions: 1. %Z is broken in Perl's POSIX strftime() function. 2. %C works differently thatn documented in the OS X strftime man page. Rather than printing the century number (20), it prints the ctime format. 3. %V and %u don't appear to be supported on OS X, despite what the strftime man page says. Thus, I would guess that just the documentation needs to be updated.
