Hello,
Please refer to my postings,
here
(https://github.com/mate-desktop/caja/issues/1712#issuecomment-2305818307),
*where I stated:*
The issue here is that the *FORMAT* for time and date should be set
set from the UbuntuMATE Preferences window for Time and Date**, for
it to be globally applied to the system.
The choices offered should be
* either as a *regional/country/ISO default*, or
* a *personalized version of* a regional/country/ISO default.
This would involve a *click-toggle to offer* customization of *any
date/time field*.
This could include user-defined change of TimeZone, to a specified
region/country, even if that TimeZone is different than the default,
I suggest selectable by drop-down).
Once that specification is chosen/edited, that format specification
should be *applied universally* for all user-oriented interactions,
*with the exception* of those that are core system (i.e. *syslog and
the like*, which would use the regional/county/ISO default
underlying the user's personalizations.
Something like that was previously offered in one of the older
Ubuntu distros (somewhere between 10 and 16) but I can't remember
which one.
and here
(https://github.com/mate-desktop/caja/issues/616#issuecomment-2305779056),
*where I stated:*
I have this bash logic which I would like to see merged into Caja as
an option for global time formatting. Would that be possible? (/I
would like it for the ls command, but I don't think that you handle
that./ :-) )
Create customized version of ‘ls l’ to report on files during the
progress of the script.
Key aspect is that, *if the modification is older than 24 hours*,
it reports *only the date*;
*otherwise*
it reports *only the time* of the last change *using the
24-hour clock*.
|myLs() { #eval stat --format=\"\|\%A\|\%h\|\%s\|\%y\|\%n\|\"
\"${1}\" eval stat --format=\"\|\%A\|\%h\|\%s\|\%Y\|\%n\|\" \"${1}\"
| awk -v now=${time_now} '{ n=split( $0, vals, "|" ) ; #mult24=(
(1.0*now) - vals[5] )/86400 ; #print mult24 ; # 86400 seconds in a
24 hour period if( ( (1.0*now) - vals[5] )/86400 > 1 ){ printf("%s
%2s %15s %10s %s\n", vals[2], vals[3], vals[4], strftime("%F",
vals[5]), vals[6] ) ; }else{ printf("%s %2s %15s %9s %s\n", vals[2],
vals[3], vals[4], strftime("%R:%S", vals[5]), vals[6] ) ; } ; }' } |
Thank you in advance for your consideration and, hopefully your
acceptance of this feature request.
