The phrases page:
http://www.jsoftware.com/help/phrases/date_time.htm
should be updated because some of the example phrases
do not work in January.
Replacing all instances of the primative ": with this:
(all on one line, problem with Yahoo! Mail)
ts2string =. [: ;:^:_1 [:
((]`([:'0'&,]))@.(1:=#)@":&.>) [: <"(0) ]
might solve the problem.
i.e.
NB. example time stamp that can occur in January
ts =. 2008 1 1 21 39 5.343
m5=: ('/'"_) 4 7} ":
m5 ts NB. this fails but is in the J phrases
2008/1 / 21 39 5.343
ts2string =. [: ;:^:_1 [:
((]`([:'0'&,]))@.(1:=#)@":&.>) [: <"(0) ]
ts2string ts
2008 01 01 21 39 5.343
#ts2string ts
22
m5_new=: ('/'"_) 4 7} ts2string
m5_new ts NB. succeeds
2008/01/01 21 39 5.343
