Although print.ts() formats times pleasantly when it prints
regular multivariate time series (at least for suitable series)
(try e.g.
> xy <- cbind(window(AirPassengers, end =1950), 1:11)
> window(xy, end=1949)
xy seqno
Jan 1949 112 1
)
I can find no immediate way to extract the pleasantly
formatted date. I am wondering what plans there may be
to modify format() to provide a choice of formats for the times
in ts objects [presumably via as.Date(), rather than by code
such as in print.ts()], or if some other solution is in view.
