The above needs to be updated I think as the current code needs a 0 specified. $ src/stat -c [%3.3:Y] /usr [ 31] $ src/stat -c [%03.3:Y] /usr [031] I notice that this does not truncate as I would expect. $ src/stat -c [%.3:Y] /usr [31] Should we perhaps treat the bit before the '.' as the width for %ld (defaulting to 09), and the bit after the '.' as the width for %s? I've not thought much about that really. have to run, Pádraig.
