[issue4086] support %z format in time.strftime and _strptime?

Alexander Belopolsky  added the comment:

Closing as a duplicate of (closed) issue 6641.

time.strftime appears to support %z on the platforms that support it in C 
strftime:


>>> time.strftime("%z", time.localtime())
'-0400'

--
dependencies:  -No obvious and correct way to get the time zone offset
resolution:  -> duplicate
superseder:  -> datetime.strptime doesn't support %z format ?

[issue4086] support %z format in time.strftime and _strptime?

[Skip Montanaro]

New submission from Skip Montanaro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

While responding to a c.l.py question just now I discovered that
numeric timezone offsets don't appear to be supported by either the
time.strftime function or the _strptime module.  I noticed on my
Mac's strftime(3) man page that it supports a %Z format for TZ
names and a %z format for numeric tz offsets.  It seems Python
should as well.
