Believe it or not, %c probably produces something that is quite illogical for the locale in question. For example, %c in the Chinese locales (all three of them) produces something that is hardly Chinese in any sense of the word; however, %x %X does produces something that is almost normal (and it would be truly normal if they had not inserted spurious leading zeroes in the parts for day and month). (Which really shouldn't be surprising, since %c is supposed to produce something like the output of date(1), which is hardly English even in the English locales.) -- cheers, -ambrose The 'net used to be run by smart people; now many sites are run by idiots. So SAD...
