Too much depends on the underlying implementation. I agree. The doc should not say anything about "26 characters", about the month names, about the Gregorian calendar, about years before AD, etc. And instead of "The function's Thread safety attribute value is MT-Safe env locale." (who understands that terminology?!) it should better say "The result depends on the environment variable TZ." Bruno
